Oh sorry... I got confused with the red mythic dragon that does not have flying... Which indeed is accurate. Sorry for the mix up 

no worries man, except I think you might be referring to a dinosaur.  I double checked and all dragons in mtgpq have flying, but there are red mythic dinosaurs that do not.  Is that what you mean?

Ah darn, these are DINOSAURS. Makes sense. *facepalm*
The way Etali and Nezahal look I always imagined they are dragons. Zetalpa is just as confusing but at least she has flying.

they do look pretty dragon-like, even more if you haven't had your coffee yet

You won't like Kokusho in L3 if there is no gem requirement. Cya later 10 life and first 3 cards.

Perhaps the gem requirements need adjusting for some of them, but yeah, outright removing them is too heavy handing and has potential for badness.

The Blue one for example... Steal your worst creature and give it Hexproof _without_ any restrictions or hoops to jump through? Hexproof is a big deal and traditionally hard to put on most creatures.

You have to jump through at least a couple hoops to get it, though, becuase you need to be a blue deck that wants to kill its creatures, and have space on the board to take opponent's creature. Keiga is really no better than Lay Claim or Kefnet's Last, and that's without the gem restriction. I would say Keiga is the least powerful of the masterpiece dinosaurs dragons, and would benefit most from some kind of buff. Agreed hexproof gives maybe a little trepidation, so how about gem-count goes away, and hexproof is replaced with flying?

     If Keiga dies, you should have a slot for the stolen creature without much effort. 
     Besides if you play one of those dragons you probably already have in mind a deck where they are likely to die in a way or another.
   
    My overall feeling is most of them are already powerful if you use them with cards or walkers that can trade their sacrifice for another efect.
    They really start to shine when you have a way to send them back from graveyard to the field ... there are a few already (they aren't too easy to get though).
   The idea of getting rid of the gem condition is seducing but im pretty sure it could make some of them too powerful with the proper sinergies.
  However, I do not like the return to hand idea, because they would no longer be able to get back from cementary to the field while it is actually the most interesting way to play them.

Lucky Indeed.  3 for 3, a new Kamigawa dragon per pack.  Ironically it's also my favorite set since it was released back in the day.

if memory serves, I'm pretty sure the 3-shield support I had on the field there was Bounty of Luxa
