This is a morph deck that out values your opponents. This isn't a competitive deck by any means like Anje Falkenrath but the deck can still win against casual/fine-tuned decks.

Draw Power

The deck has a main draw engine: Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer. With Kadena, you already have a cost reduction and drawn engine in one card.If you couple Kadena with Panharmonicon or Yarok, the Desecrated you can draw up to 4 cards with a single morph. Now that we talked about the draw power. How can we abuse the cost reduction Kadena has? Oh, that's right, Flash exists.

Flash

Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir, Vivien, Champion of the Wilds,and Leyline of Anticipation/Vedalken Orrery all have distinct advantages in the deck. Teferi, lets you flash in creatures and locks down your opponents from interacting with your board. Vivien, gives card advantage and extra keywords to your creatures to make sure she stays alive and Leyline has the advantage of starting out on the field at the start of the game.

Cost-Reduction

Now as we're getting into cost reduction we have: Ugin, the Ineffable, Dream Chisel, Obscuring AEther, Seedborn Muse,and Ixidor, Reality Sculptor. Ugin, is a triple threat of a card. He offers cost reduction, removal,card advantage as well as being able to protect himself. Obscuring AEther also gives cost reduction in addtion to becoming a creature for an extra blocker to protect Vivien or Ugin. There's nothing else to Dream Chisel but cost reduction. The last two are pseudo cost-reduction. If Seedborn Muse lives, it's a card that helps reduce morph costs and untaps whatever mana we used to hard cast morphs on our turn. Ixidor is a really handy lord that gives our morphs, manifests and other face-down creatures extra power & toughness. His second ability is extremely useful to us,like Seedborn Muse,he reduces the cost of flipping cards over. These cards give this deck a great edge.

Synergies

With 23 Morphs, 5 Manifest cards, you can draw tons of value. Tomb of the Spirit Dragon, gains you life for each face-down creature you control. Salt Road Ambushers + Temur War Shaman is a casual jank synergy that I enjoy so much! The Great Henge + Panharmonicon + Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer can draw a lot together especially with Zendikar Resurgent. Mystic Forge + Any Morph, this works for morphs because they are colorless creature cards while being cast. Secret Plans + Any Morph = Card draw.

Win Conditons

Now these are the win conditons: Ixidron + Overwhelming Stampede can end games with enough creatures on your side. The same goes for Craterhoof Behemoth with enough morphs/creatures. Den Protector + Vesuvan Shapeshifter + Time Warp for you guessed it, infinite turns. Now this last one isn't a guarantee but you can win if you have your draw engine set up as well as your cost reduction. Panharmonicon+Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer+Zendikar Resurgent+Laboratory Maniac+Ugin, the Ineffable+Dream Chisel.

If there's anything else yall want to add or suggest, feel free to comment,
