My Masterpiece.

Zirda as a Companion

Zirda can create infinite Colorless mana with Grim Monolith and Basalt Monolith. Stonework Packbeast is the perfect outlet for this colorless mana and can be tutored by anything that grabs artifacts or creatures.

Kinnan and Basalt Monolith also create infinite colorless mana and Walking Ballista or Stonework Packbeast are good outlets for this mana.

Zirda has synergies with the Isochron Scepter/Dramatic Reversal combo and also makes Kenrith’s abilities cheaper.

When the game grinds out for awhile Kenrith and Zirda can keep you relevant with card draw and beat downs.

Auriok Salvagers with Kinnan and Zirda makes Lotus Petal a bomb if you lose LED.

Strategy

Your opening hand can determine how you want to win within the first few turns.

An early Ad Nauseam can usually win you the game with ease.

Against stax or control there is enough resiliency to the deck to survive the long game.

Beating down opponents is always an option. Zirda is a 3/3 and Kenrith is a 5/5.

Most cards are CMC 2 or less so the deck moves quickly.
