So this is my take on a spellslinger/value deck with Kess at the helm. I'm not a control player, so I wanted to keep counterspells to a minimum, so I only use counters that have other uses (IE: Silumgar's Command and Cryptic Command). It basically just wants to grind out a ton of value till I can get down an effect that copies spells, and then pumping a bunch of mana into a huge x-spell and copying it a bunch of times to kill the whole table at once.
