This is a choices focused Kenrith deck that run a bunch of different cards that gives our opponent choices such as Manifold Insights, where they decide which card to give us or Druid of Purification/Bladegriff Prototype which allows them to help decide what should be removed.

The deck also contains a lot of fun different fun stuff that can be used at instant speed such as either using Kenrith, the Returned King's abilities to do stupid stuff or cast an Inkshield/Rakdos Charm etc.

When playing the deck try to make our opponents fight each other so remeber to talk to the other players and inform them about who is about to go off etc. We want our opponents to over extend. Then wait for the best moment to strike and to try and to seize victory so that your opponents have used as many resources as possible else where. Therefore try not to raise your threat level to much before needed.

• For example don't deploy your Seedborn Muse until you are ready to protect it and yourself from the hate it generates.

The way the deck the wins late game once it has build up enough of an engine is usually through utilzing our opponenents own resources against them with Inkshield/Rakdos Charm/Kardur, Doomscourge or playing their cards using Villainous Wealth/The Scarab God.

Some MVP's of the deck are:

• Rakdos Charm: can end the game very quickly against go-wide decks.
• Seedborn Muse/Wilderness Reclamation: as they allow me to untap mana and keep it open for other fun stuff in other people's turn.
• Zirda, the Dawnwaker/Biomancer's Familiar: as they allow us to reduce the cost of Kenriths abilities alot.
• Selfless Squire: as you can turn all your opponents damage into a giant beater that Kenrith can then give trample if needed. Also if it dies then Kenrith can just bring it back later.
• Crop Rotation: is nice because it can find Glacial Chasm/Bojuka Bog at instant speed or Alchemist's Refuge/The World Tree/Field of the Dead for value.
• Phantasmal Image: is cool because you can kind of sacrifice it by targeting it with Kenrith's +1/+1 counter ability. Then you can reanimate it and clone something new and better or get an interesting etb usch as Druid of Purification. Can in principle go infinite if your opponent has a Dockside Extorsionist on the table and generate enough treasures.
• Brash Taunter: with Seedborn Muse out he can do a supprisingly high amount of damage to people as you can fight stuff every turn. He also synergies really well with Zirda, the Dawnwaker/Biomancer's Familiar as they reduce his ability but also they allow you to put a ton of +1/+1 counters on a creature that Brash Taunter can then fight for tons of damage.
• Cuombajj Witches: as they can remove most utility creatures your opponents control and if you team up with somebody you can remove creatures with two toughness. Also if somebody tries to ping your stuff to death just throw a +1/+1 counter on the creature using Kenrith's abilities.
• Crop Rotation: the fact that this card can find Field of the Dead or World Tree makes it a pretty solid card, however finding a Glacial Chasm with it at instant speed is always fun to do in response to any damage based effect send your way such as an Aetherflux Reservoir activation etc.

Considering to add:

• Rogue's Passage: fun political card.
• Kaervek the Merciless: can be used politically by allowing your opponents to target stuff as long as it is not your stuff they target.

Standin: Undermountain Adventurer -> Kynaios and Tiro of Meletis
