Pull him out turn 3, add a counter turn 3 and four, summon dragons turn 5, game turn 6.

sarkan is good for an offensive deck. his +1 ability doesnt keep counters on permanents though, so it has to be used continually for lasting effects. His second ability is pretty good, taking a creature to attack with it, but your opponent will still be able to use it on their turn, so if they have good defense, there isnt a point in taking a creature. His last ability is what i call "hey opponent, im gonna make this game one sided right now." Getting the dragons out will almost definately end the game, and fast. the only problem, is that his last ability takes a while to get to, which means time for your opponent to do something about sarkan, but all in all, great card.

1st ability nice for getting your strong creatures to attack on the turn they come out.
2nd ability pair it up with a Scarland Thrinax and you'll be able to hit them with their own creatures and sac it to Scar thrinax so they can't get it back and you get to buff up one of your own creatures for it. or just pair it up with any sac engine.
3rd I would have to say is fairly awesome pair it up with the crucible of fire like the post said before me and you can start swinging with some 7/7 dragons on the next turn.
You can even drop another Sarkhan after you use the last ability (assuming the last ability takes all his loyality counters) to use its first ability to have them swing on the turn you get them as 5/5's

It is certainly a good card, but Gather Specimens will ruin your celebration of having 5 dragons.

when properly combined with a certain little ouphe the "ultimate" can be utilized immediately. so frankly this is a potencially dangerous card, and if your lucky enough you can do it twice.

@grundledib - If it were permanent, they would utilize +1/+1 counters.

If his -2 was a -1, he'd be very playable.

@donovan, yeah you are wrong about sarkan vol chaning ajani G into ajani V. its been stated by wizards in one of their articles that ajani V is when he was young and immature and out for vengeance for his brothers death, and ajani G is once he accepts himself and is at peace. so yeah just saying your wrong.
