Hello and welcome to a homebrewed cEDH Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy decklist!

This list focuses mostly on speed, and I built the deck myself. There are weird inclusions and exclusions, but the basis is get mana and go for a draw engine to win with Thassa's Oracle. The combos here are similar, with Pemmin's Aura and Freed from the Real. The dorks you want tap for both blue or green, and infinite mana more often than one would think. Also Basalt Monolith + Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy is easy infinite colorless. This makes colorless draw engines very appealing, so we have two! Thrasios, Triton Hero and Prophet of Distortion, which both can be fetched with Kinnan's ability.

There's been a lot of revisions so far, and I think consistency is a little lackluster. It's pretty fragile too, but the cost of speed is pretty high. I dropped several creatures, including the Llanowar Elves dorks (the ones that add only green) because they simply don't do enough on their own, and even with Kinnan, they aren't too impressive only adding two green mana each (which ultimately isn't the only color we need). I remember I used to also have stuff like Crossroads Candleguide because I didn't know that they didn't interact with Kinnan. I also dropped Gilded Lotus because it doesn't do anything beneficial beyond give up to four mana, and its upfront cost is pretty high.

I added a bunch of tutors in place of the things I dropped, and Umbral Mantle as well (even though its only use is with Incubation Druid). I think the best add is probably Drift of Phantasms because it transmutes into any 3 CMC key piece you might need. Another really good add is Tezzeret the Seeker, Finale of Devastation, and other artifact/creature tutors, specifically because hitting Pili-Pala and Paradise Mantle is just a win with Kinnan on board. Another great combo is Grand Architect + Pili-Pala

I'd really like some tips on how to make this better because it's getting harder to find, replace, and cut cards for cEDH without looking at anything besides the cards I have.
