Big mana, big hands, big things

COMPETITIVE METER: 8

Mana Ramp: The first step in playing this deck is to focus on ramping up your mana as quickly as possible. Cards like Cultivate, Kodama's Reach, Skyshroud Claim, and Coiling Oracle can help you get more lands onto the battlefield.

Card Draw: Once you've ramped up your mana, the next step is to start drawing cards to fill your hand. Rhystic Study, Mystic Remora, and Sylvan Library are all great options for card draw.

Protection: With your ramp and card draw engines running, you'll want to protect yourself from threats. Fierce Guardianship, Force of Will, and Force of Negation are all excellent counterspells that can help you defend yourself.

Control: In addition to protection, you'll want to have some control elements in your deck to deal with your opponent's threats. Cyclonic Rift, Reality Shift, and Beast Within can help you deal with problematic permanents or creatures.

Combo: This deck also has a few combos that can help you win the game. Enter the Infinite, Omniscience, and Laboratory Maniac can all work together to let you draw your entire deck and win the game with Laboratory Maniac's ability.

Kruphix's Ability: Don't forget about Kruphix's own ability, which allows you to store excess mana for later use. This can be a powerful tool to help you cast multiple spells in a single turn, or to save up mana for a big play later in the game.

Play the Long Game: With so many powerful cards and combos in this deck, it's important to play the long game and bide your time until you have the cards you need to win. Don't be afraid to let your opponents make the first move, and focus on building up your own resources until you're ready to strike.

Overall, this is a powerful and versatile deck that can be played in a variety of ways. Whether you're looking to control the board, combo off and win the game, or simply out-value your opponents with card draw and ramp, this deck has plenty of tools to help you succeed.
