This is my version of a Keene deck, where I don't really try to win through maze's end. You can still very much win with maze's end off tempo alone, but the main thing is that you want to draw a ton and play board state through keene. There are a couple of fairly powerful x cards that help you out if you really need it.

I find that if I wanted to focus on maze's end then it becomes sort of weird to play keene as the commander because you'd lose out on a lot of gates.

The 2 new gates cap you out at 15 gates, while Omo can extend the cap further.
