Silumgar--Dragons of Tarkir
Dragonlord Silumgar bestows wealth and power upon his subjects--but only a select few. The Silumgar vie for their dragonlord's favor by proffering lavish gifts and making sacrifices, sometimes even sacrificing other in the clan. Ruthless beyond measure, the Silumgar use the dragon's fang as their clan symbol.
The Silumgar are as ruthless as their dragonlord. Use the exploit mechanic to sacrifice your own creatures for greater gain. Some creatures give you an added benefit when they die, making them ideal sacrificial offerings. As a bonus, creatures (and other cards) festering in your graveyard can be put to yet another use as fodder for spells with the delve ability from the Fate Reforged set.
Silumgar decks are typically slower and more controlling. You'll often strive to trade your resources for your opponent's over the course of the game, and then, when the time is right, seize the advantage with powerful spells or large, evasive creatures.
Your deck must have at least 40 cards, and it's advisable to stay as close to that minimum as possible. You'll want about 17 lands and 23 other cards, including 14-20 creatures. You'll generally want to choose your clan's two colors to be your focus, perhaps "splashing" a few cards of a third color if they'r particularly powerful.
Ojutai--Dragons of Tarkir
Dragonlord Ojutai is known as the Great Teacher to his clan of martial artists, mystics, and wandering warriors. The clan believes that Ojutai and his brood are the wisest living sages, and that the ultimate honor is to "ascend" on death and be reincarnated as one of these skywise. The clan values cunning, and is represented by the dragon's eye, which signifies awareness and the pursuit of wisdom.
Those who follow Ojutai pride themselves on their cunning. Use the rebound mechanic to cast instants and sorceries twice, making them doubly dangerous. And couple rebound spells with creatures from the Fate Reforged set that have the prowess ability to get twice and added benefit during combat.
When building an Ojutai deck, aim for a balance of creatures, instants, and sorceries to outmaneuver your opponents on all fronts. The path to victory is paved with crafty combat tricks, especially those that can disrupt your opponents' plans and open up room for deadly attacks.

Dromoka--Dragons of Tarkir
Dragonlord Dromoka leads a clan of honorable desert warriors who proudly don armor made of scales shed by the dragons they revere. Dromoka encourages her followers to trust in each other as well as in the dragon scalelords who fight alongside them in battle. The Dromoka's symbol is the scale of the dragon, representing the clan's ability to endure anything.
Those in the Dromoka clan work together to endure and conquer. Use the bolster mechanic to put +1/+1 counters on your creatures with the least toughness, thus ensuring your army will never have a week link. Look for cards with this ability in both the Dragons of Tarkir set and the Fate Reforged set.
A Dromoka deck's success depends on having a strong board presence with lots of big creatures in the late game; thus it's important to include some defensive cards to help you through the early turns. When you've attained a critical mass of large creatures, you'll be able to overwhelm your opponent with devastating attacks.

Kolaghan--Dragons of Tarkir
Dragonlord Kolaghan commands a clan of reckless and brutal warriors. Her followers hurl themselves into combat regardless of the odds. Many clan warriors wear special harnesses that redirect the dragon' lightning breath into a fearsome attack. The Kolaghan's symbol is the dragon's wing, as the clan values speed above all else.
Most Kolaghan decks are quick on the attack but have few defenses, so try to achieve victory before your opponents have a chance to get their footing. Look for low-cost removal spells to clear the way for your aggressive and persistent attackers.
