As a prelude, I haven't done much testing with the deck due to the virus going around. So I can't really give you much feedback how the deck is running. Sorry, should've said that in the op.
Spawn can deal more damage than Bogardan when the game goes late.
Unsure how Shaman and Servant will perform. May just replace Servant with Ruby Medallion down the road.
Curse seems good because it dissuades attacks against you, which is critical for setting up early.
Running the discard and draw because it's the best card draw in red aside from impulse draw and I don't like the idea of exiling a dragon off the top. Also because this deck was a Feldon deck before and I just carried the card draw package over.
Looking to replace Prismatic Lens with Arcane Signet as soon as the 2020 precons drop.
And I am aware of the infinite combo. Still running both because they're great on their own and I can choose to not grab Worldgorger if I have Echoes out.
"I speak the dragons' language of flame and rage. They speak my language of fury and honor. Together we shall weave a tale of destruction without equal."
I love Greater Gargadon, especially with Worldgorger Dragon. Summon out Worldgorger with Zirilan, float all your mana, exile everything, then sac it to Greater Gargadon and get everything back you just exiled. Combine with Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle to probably kill someone on the spot.
Not the biggest fan of the other tough calls and most of the other cards mentioned are all obvious includes, but Blood Mist is a card I've never really considered. Gonna be adding that in asap.
Been playing Zirilan for a about two years. Here are some cards I really like in my build.
Generator Servant
Cast this early, then sac it turn 6 to cast Zirilan. Gives him haste and you have 3 mana left, just enough to activate him. Can also be used late to cast a dragon from hand.
Mask of Memory
Repeatable card draw, especially in a deck full of fliers.
In regards to new cards, could the newly revealed Fire Prophecy be good? Put a dragon that's stuck in your hand on the bottom while also removing something and replacing said dragon
