CotWCs making me wonder about weird Magic trivia. Is there a dragon type in every set? Likely answer is: no. But, should there be!? In any case... dropping this here for now. Faerie Dragon   
Creature - Dragon Faerie  Mischievousness Sorcery - Adventure Each player chooses one: • Draw a card • Reveal the top card of your library, if it's a land put it on the battlefield tapped. /// When ~ enters the battlefield, choose one: • Flying creatures get +1/+1 until end of turn. • Other flying creatures get -1/-0 until end of turn. 1/1  |

As far as I know, nowadays WotC tries to do one card for each of the iconic tribes (Angel, Sphinx, Demon, Dragon & Hydra) per set if possible - but even before that was the case, they definitely tried doing this for Dragons in particular. I think it was when Balefire Dragon was revealed and some questioned the need for a Dragon to show up on Innistrad, that MaRo talked about some players loving the Dragon cards in particular and collecting them from every set. |

Yeah, sometimes they fail 
Anyway, here's my own entry - decided to go with a hybrid colored design for this challenge:
(Might add some flavor text later on.)

I wanted to test out that new Adamant mechanic from Eldraine. I also run two tribal commander decks--Jund Dragons and Mardu Vampires. So I thought, rock on, I'll make a card that's both a dragon and a vampire! |

Dragons clearly always prefered Goblins to Food.

ALL HAIL SQUEEKNOR, OUR NEW LORD AND SAVIOR! Get your bitchass outta here, Vectron!
So, I designed this card for Hipsters of the Coast's Great Designer Training, back during the runup to GDS3. The prompt was something along the lines of the Sarkhan/Ugin business on Tarkir never happened (or happened vastly differently), so design a card that's a melding of two of the wedges.
Silarka, the Secret-Breaker  Legendary Creature--Dragon 
Flying
Whenever Silarka, the Secret-Breaker or another creature you control is turned face up, you may draw a card. If you do, you may have that creature deal damage equal to the number of cards in your hand to another target creature.
: Turn target face up creature you control face down.
Morph  (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for . Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.) 5/5
"Punch" or "bite" effects are primary in , and key off of that creature's power. However, a punch based off of the number of cards in your hand feels like it would need /be a thing that would do.

I'll admit, now that my card is posted, I'm curious about feedback. Not just on the mechanics, but also my photoshop work  (The non-title text font is Matrix, but it still doesn't look quite right to me) |

@haiku -- That's... that's just straight up Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind. But with an older looking frame. I feel like that's not allowed, for some weird reason. Psychonoid Dragon  Creature - Dragon Flying Whenever ~ deals combat damage to a player, that player exiles a card from their hand. 3/3 |

My card is about a dragon but also about a survivor.  Village Decimator   Creature — Dragon Flying, haste When Village Decimator enters the battlefield, each opponent chooses a creature they control, then sacrifices the rest. Creatures your opponents control have protection from Dragons. As long as a Dragon you control is attacking, they also have reach. 5/5 |

 You can throw him under the bus to permanently destroy a particularly difficult to kill creature (ie Bloodghast) or boost him into bomb city. I figure 9 mana is about right for such an obscene monster. |

Works well with "must attack" mechanics and fight mechanics. |

Here's a rather whimsical one. It's a little pushed, but probably fine.

Creature - Dragon  Flying, menace
When Possessive Dragon enters the battlefield, create a Treasure Hoard token.
Possessive Dragon can't attack as long as you control a Treasure Hoard. 5/5
----- Treasure Hoard
Token Artifact Shroud Sacrifice Treasure Hoard: Add two mana of any color. Only any opponent may play this ability as a sorcery.

Sacrifice Treasure Hoard:
I think you cannot sacrifice anything that you don't own, but as long as everyone 100% understands how to play the card i guess it's fine. |
