Kess, Dissident Mage

Consultation is a powerful archetype in cedh and Kess, Dissident Mage is one of the best commanders for it. Thanks to the commanders ability we get to reuse, interaction, cantrips, and tutors. Further more combos with the win condition.

The Combos

• 1st: The primary combo, Demonic Consultation+Thassa's Oracle with some redundancy in Jace, Wielder of Mysteries, as well as Tainted Pact. Provided you have the mana Demonic Consultation can be a one card win condition with Kess, Dissident Mage on the board, cast Demonic Consultation and hope Thassa's Oracle is not in the top six cast DC again and then cast the Oracle, Also Jace, Vryn's Prodigy   once flipped is a back up Kess.

• 2nd: Intuition while the commander is on board for the win, Tutor for Thassa's Oracle-Reanimate-Demonic Consultation, No matter what your opponents choose you win.
