Default [ARB] Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund and Singe-Mind Ogre

So, what is the flavor for the baddest Dragon on all of Jund?
How about this?

Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund 4brg
Legendary Creature - Dragon (M)
Flying, Haste
When Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund comes into play, gain control of all Dragon creatures in play and untap them.
Dragon creatures you control have Haste.
7/7

I'm trying to think of broken EDH combos that let you change creature types and steal lots of creatures with him as general...
The effect doesn't end at EOT, which is fun.
This and Thraximundar...one feels mythic, one doesn't.

Singe-Mind Ogre 2br
Creature - Ogre Mutant (C)
When Singe-Mind Ogre comes into play, target player reveals a card from his or her hand at random. Singe-Mind Ogre deals damage to that player equal to its converted mana cost.
3/2

Reminds me of the 5/4 from Lorwyn block. Good for a common, I would say. Nothing to write home about though.

WOW the draong looks like the kind of thing that combo decks would really enjoy breaking, and a 7/7 flyer for 7 is pretty good too.

The common is also pretty nice for limited, creature with free burn stuck to it.

Even the "bad" commons are actually good. This set is a lot of fun.

And whoa. My inner Timmy splooged himself.

Although not competitive, Karthus is a reallly fun card. This is Mythic!

The first instance of haste probably isn't needed since he gives all dragons you control haste. Unless it's really "other dragon creatures"...

Conspiracy would work. Too bad Shields of Velis Vel is not in his colors!

EDIT: Do'h! Conspiracy is only creatures you control....

Thanks for the info.

Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund- 7 for a 7/7 flying hasty dragon which permanently threatens all your opponents dragons. limited bomb, constructed iffy(i'd rather pay 1 more for overlord which has trample etc.), seems purpose built for EDH though.

Singe-Mind Ogre- nice solid common, a 3/2 for 4 is just solid but the random extra damage can be pretty nice particularly if you manage to reveal someones super expensive bomb(and there's alot of them in this limited format).
