Rauglothgor's Lair

1/DC
Realm
Forgotten Realms
Common

Any nondragon champions attacking this realm are at half their base level
(rounded down). Undead defending this dragon's lair are immune to
harmful events.

Only undead defenders are immune to the events, not the realm itself. For example, Rauglothgor's Lair is affected by Cataclysm!.

Card Combo (from Tony Novello): Put Rauglothgor's Lair in the front rank of your formation and play the rule card Negative Planar Energy. Now not only are nondragons at half base level, your undead defenders can first subtract their base level from the attacker's base level. If reduced to 0 or less, they are discarded, and the spoils is yours. You can make this even more deadly by having Powers of the Land (12/DR) attached to a Ravenloft realm in your formation. Now all of your defending undead double their base levels.

Dragon Mountain

2/DC
Realm
AD&D
Common

level is doubled when defending this realm.

The major advantage of this realm is that it is difficult to attack, since only flyers or earthwalkers and reach the realm. The realm's power to double Infyrana the Dragon's base level is of limited usefulness, since it is so specific.

Lair of the Shadowdrake

3/DC
Realm
AD&D
Rare

If Menzoberranzan is in play when this realm is played, Menzo is discarded.
While this realm is in play, the Underdark allies gained by the Triumvirate
realms are negated.

This realm has to powers that make it a good addition to any deck. Since Menzoberranzan appears in virtually every deck, the Lair's power to discard Menzo is very useful.

While Triumvirate realms are not seen nearly as much as Menzo, negating Triumvirate allies is a nice additional benefit to this realm. But this power is a double-edged sword, since it also negates a player's own Triumvirate allies.

Dragonspine Mountain

6
Forgotten Realms
Rare

Dragons defending this realm are immune to offensive spells, psionics, and
blood abilities. This realm can defend itself as a level 6 dragon champion.

Forgotten Realms
Dragon

The Dragon Cultist can raise dragons from the dead. Every turn that this champion doesn't attack, his player may return one dragon champion from his discard pile to his hand.

The Dragon Cultist's power is used in phase 5.

The Dragon Cultist can retrieve both dragon champions and dragon allies, which makes this card a cornerstone of most dragon decks. Orb of Green Dragonkind (424/4th) is a good card to add to a dragon deck using the Cultist, thus doubling your recycling power.

Per Jim Butler, the Spellfire Oracle, the Dragon Cultist is considered a dragon, because it has "dragon" in the name.

Playing to Lose

10/DC Chase
Rule

During phase 2, a player can opt to raze one of his own realms, in addition to playing a realm or holding. While this rule is in effect, the first player to have six razed realms in his formation for one full turn wins, instead of the normal winning conditions.

Players may attack razed realms in another player's formation to discard them, if successful.

A player must have six razed realms in his formation for a full turn (phase 2 to phase 2) in order to meet the victory conditions of Playing to Lose.
