by Precursor: The Drorniq archetype covers a flexible variety of decks that include the aforementioned creature. All of the decks function similarly to a strictly better Stelgar vicious mutation with Drorniq acting as an ever present win condition the longer a game is drawn out with options against un-targettability and few real counters, an archetype based around Drorniq is guaranteed so long as the card is playable. The general premise of the deck is to get as many attacks off as possible to load up both Drorniq with counters and nuke through the last few fights of the game once Drorniq runs out of defenders, in the past Drorniq has been banned and has seen a wide variety of experimentation in mixed decks with cards like Zamool/LVB and makes M'arrilian decks strictly better with his inclusion.

[[Xerium Armor]] Can be tech'd onto a [[Drorniq]] instead of [[Lomma, Desert Wanderer]] if you find your [[drorniq]]'s getting one shot too often and opponents are running little burn
[[Weightless Energy Vessel]] Can replace [[Challor]], if you find matchups to have more Mugic Burn than Ability Burn
[[Lomma, Desert Wanderer]] can replace [[Rellim, Watermaster]], if opponents have an abundance of range or you feel one defender isn't cutting it.
