I'm making a Nekusar, the Mindrazer deck and I think I have all my ideas down including my new favorite card Forced Fruition.

Card Draw

So for decks like this Windfall is always a necessity but this card is not the only thing that pulls this great effect of making you draw a new hand:

• Barbed Shocker
• Dragon Mage
• Jace's Archivist
• Magus of the Wheel
• Shocker
• Molten Psyche
• Reforge the Soul
• Whispering Madness
• Windfall
• Winds of Change

You Get a Card! You Get 2 Cards! You Get 23 1/2 Cards! EVERYBODY GETS A CARD!!Theatrics aside, Everybody loves cards but this deck ain't one of those lovey dovey 'Group Hug' decks I want you to suffer:

• Kami of the Crescent Moon
• Nin, the Pain Artist
• Seizan, Perverter of Truth
• Anvil of Bogardan
• Font of Mythos
• Horn of Greed
• Braingeyser
• Fascination
• Minds Aglow
• Jace, Memory Adept
• Dictate of Kruphix
• Blue Sun's Zenith
• Stroke of Genius

• AND NOW FOR THE BEST CARD IN EXISTENCE Forced Fruition

  Nekusar, The Pain Artist

  Now for the fun part. Nekusar's ability is beautiful but luckily for me (and you?) he ain't the only one who runs said ability:

• Kederekt Parasite

• Ob Nixilis Reignited
• Fate Unraveler
• Breathstealer's Crypt
• Phyrexian Tyranny
• Spiteful Visions
• Underworld Dreams

Nekusar, the Mindrazer is beautiful he lets your opponents draw more cards and sucks the life out of them, this can be problematic since your opponents have more spells to choose from (however random that selection may be).

So enter friends Ob Nixilis, Unshackled your "friends" cannot tutor cards if they want to live.

Words of War just throw up ten or so mana before a huge card draw (so like the start of your turn?).

Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind and Psychosis Crawler because I'm drawing cards too.

Sangromancer, Duskmantle Guildmage, Liliana's Caress, Megrim, Bloodchief Ascension, and Waste Not. "As the Winds of Change reach thine ears and thine hand shifts your graveyard shall grow." -Me, 2017

• Price of Knowledge

• Consuming Aberration, Sewer Nemesis, Ghastly Conscription, and Crypt Incursion.

Helping the Cause

Nekusar's ability doesn't count as commander damage, but it is damage from him so:

• Cartouche of Ambition
• Eternal Thirst
• Glistening Oil
• Butcher's Glee
• Cruel Feeding

These buffs also work on Fate Unraveler and Kederekt Parasite .

Wincons and Boardwipes

Wincons: Laboratory Maniac

Alhammarret's Archive + Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind / Psychosis Crawler + any huge card draw.

Glistening Oil Infect is rude but it works.

As an avid player of magic I hate boardwipes, but they are necessary.Boardwipes:- Black Sun's Zenith- Blasphemous Act- Coastal Breach - Cyclonic Rift

I think that about covers it.(I did a long description yes)
