This week, I continue on my journey of realizing that Kynaios and Tiro of Melitis are kinda fun, actually.

---

This deck wants to ramp. A lot. Too much. The top of its mana curve is {13} and it has an average CMC of {6}. That's very high. Fortunately, we run a lot of ramp. Kynaios and Tiro also ramp us, giving us an Explore every turn. They also act as a deterrent: very few people are afraid of Kynaios and Tiro of Melitis in the command zone. After all, they're the top grouphug commander on EDHREC. Surely they wouldn't do anything scary, right?

5 turns later: "Now I'm going to play Nyxbloom Ancient. With Nyxbloom out, I'm going to play Imoti, Celebrant of Bounty and cascade into an Arcane Signet. From there I'll play Emrakul, the Promised End cascading into Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite, who will flip me into Urabrask the Hidden. Moving to combat..."
