Kethis, the Hidden Hand cares about legendary cards of all types, but this deck is cashing in on planeswalkers getting that sweet legendary supertype. Kethis helps get the walkers out early, and provides a way to recur them if (when) they hit the graveyard. No need to fear, Grisly Salvage, Satyr Wayfinder, Nyx Weaver, and several planeswalkers will keep the graveyard full enough to get use of Kethis' exile ability.

Just because recurring walkers is easy, does not mean protection is not important. Lolth, Spider Queen, Elspeth, Sun's Champion, and Arasta of the Endless Web are all great at gumming up the board with expendable blockers. Liliana, Waker of the Dead, and Grist, the Hunger Tide make tokens to protect themselves and put cards in the graveyard to fuel Kethis' reanimation.

Making the most of loyalty counters is important, as opponents will likely focus walkers before their final ability is available. Carth the Lion, Oath of Gideon, Pir, Imaginative Rascal, and Ajani, the Greathearted all help get as much value as possible.

Just one or two emblems can be enough to finish out a game. Or get sneaky and use Rogue's Passage to knock out players with Vraska the Unseen assassin tokens. Out valuing or classic token beat down are perfectly viable ways to close out games.

I hope you enjoy the deck, and I welcome any suggested cards or cuts!
