Hey man, have you considered adding more rituals & mana rocks to this list? With the Commander being a 7-drop, you need all the mana you can get.

Consider finding space for Arcane Signet, Mana Vault, Talisman of Dominance, Talisman of Creativity, Talisman of Indulgence, Fellwar Stone, Pyretic Ritual, Seething Song, Culling the Weak & maybe even Drain Power.

Essence Flux & Dauthi Voidwalker are also really great here, & some Reanimator pieces like Reanimate, Animate Dead & Necromancy could help maximize on Xander's 2nd triggered ability.

Just wanted to make sure you knew that phasing creatures do not trigger enter the battlefield abilities (ETB's) because they never actually leave play. So if you were looking to abuse ETB's you might want to switch to something else like Essence Flux.

Now let's add some flicker: Thassa, Deep-Dwelling, Ghostly Flicker, Deadeye Navigator (no budget though), Essence Flux and some other suggestions: one of my favorites is this one Maddening Cacophony, Drown in Dreams, Curse of the Swine of course. Keep it up, looks interesting.

eliakimras on Ur dragon, need recommendations

Hello! I saw your deck help tag and wanted to give some insight.

I don't run Miirym as commander, but I do have her in the 99 in Smashing Faces with the Ur-Dragon, and she always pushes me to victory whenever she's allowed to stick on the battlefield.

Some areas you might want to change to improve your consistency:

1 - Ramp

• Farseek and Fellwar Stone are great for fixing for multiple colors of mana. You might take out Birds of Paradise (dies so easily), Sakura-Tribe Elder (fixes for only one color) and Sword of Once and Future (no synergy with dragons) for them.
• Skyshroud Claim is great for the same reasons above. Frontier Siege never impressed me in a multicolor deck, because I often need colors outside of .
• If you run the suggestions above, you probably need more fetchable dual lands: Ketria Triome, Breeding Pool, Steam Vents, Stomping Ground, Sheltered Thicket, Wooded Ridgeline.
• If you run Into the North, you can also use Highland Forest, Rimewood Falls, Volatile Fjord and some snow basics (Snow-Covered Forest, Snow-Covered Island, Snow-Covered Mountain) to fetch.

2 - Draw/Haste

• It is tough to cast Tribute to the World Tree in a 3-color deck without Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth or Chromatic Lantern on the battlefield. Maybe you want Temur Ascendancy instead.

3 - Removal/Boardwipes

• Chain Reaction cleans your own dragons. Curse of the Swine should get rid of your opponents' most problematic creatures. If you face a lot of token decks, Surtland Frostpyre is a boardwipe on a land that leaves most of your dragons alive.
• Green Sun's Twilight could be Chaos Warp as a second Beast Within.

4 - Protection

• In my dragons deck, I often want protection and haste for more than one creature. Swiftfoot Boots got swapped out for Asceticism.
• Slip Out the Back could instead be Heroic Intervention (it has good synergy with Blasphemous Act).
• If you don't want to be attacked, Propaganda might deter more attackers than Fog.
• Can you cast Counterspell and Bane's Contingency reliably? Swan Song or Arcane Denial might be easier to cast considering your manabase.

5 - Card draw

• Rishkar's Expertise, Garruk, Primal Hunter and Return of the Wildspeaker are the cream of the crop of green card draw. You might want to remove Blur, Essence Flux and Ghostly Flicker for them. (Instead of running flicker effects to save your creatures, it might be better to just run more threats in case they are dealt with - and card draw helps with that.)

6 - Better threats

• Dragon Broodmother creates tokens at a much faster pace than Dragonmaster Outcast.
• Korlessa, Scale Singer never impressed me. Knollspine Dragon is way better at drawing cards.
• Overwhelming Stampede wins games harder than Thundermaw Hellkite.
• I would take out Flameblast Dragon for Utvara Hellkite.

7 - Some utility lands you might want to run

• Exotic Orchard, Unclaimed Territory and Secluded Courtyard fix your colors.
• Haven of the Spirit Dragon fixes your colors and bring Dragons back from the dead.
• Littjara Mirrorlake clones one of your Dragons.
• Blighted Woodland and Myriad Landscape ramp you into Miirym.

wallisface, thank you for your input, you have given some confirmation to my own suspicions/testing. but, ascendant spirit has been providing a very efficient way to dump mana being a 1 cmc with various costing instant abilities, it scales into late game which is something the deck aims to do despite having so many low cost spells. the focus on draw is mostly how this is achieved while using multiple spells to acquite/maintain tempo advantage. staggering insight get's sided out possibly the most frequently but it also does a great job of offering sustainability and being a very cheap proactive spell, I'm going to cut 1 copy and keep testing it. ephemerate was tested for a bit and just didn't work out too well, the list was different then, but not too much so; I'm going to try Essence Flux instead while I'm still using ascendant spirit. i don't believe ill ever take this "the eternal witness route" because at that point i'd just go back to pure bant spirits with 30+ creatures :) thanks again. check out the changes i made with your input.
