    How it works

    Before you start

    You control at least six Dragons that can attack this turn. An opponent cannot block and kill creatures you control.

    Steps

    Declare six Dragons you control as attackers. Utvara Hellkite triggers six times, creating six 6/6 Dragon creature tokens. The Dragons enter the battlefield, triggering Ganax six times, creating six Treasure tokens. Move to your postcombat main phase. Activate five Treasure tokens you control by tapping and sacrificing them, adding at least {3}{R}{R}. Activate Aggravated Assault by paying {3}{R}{R}, causing you to untap all creatures you control and to get an additional combat and main phase after this one. Repeat.
