Kruphix is the eldest of the gods. He has dominion over the potential, the distant, and the unseen. He governs the cycles of time and he is the keeper of mysteries that no others are meant to learn. As the master of time and space, he can harness the very fabric of the universe itself, the awesome power of Singularity.

The horizon is tantalizing in both its uncertainty and its potential

I built this deck to experience the zen joy of just passing my turn and Kruphix is a perfect fit for this. He is uniquely capable of getting the most advantage from doing absolutely nothing. With him I don't really have to face the dilemma of whether or not to hold up mana for an instant-speed answer or cast something on my turn. Ive found that this deck has a unique style of play which introduces a lot of choice so it rewards highly skilled play.

Ideally people in your playgroup will begin to know the fear of and be wary of even your relatively empty boardstate. Should an opponent choose to attack you they'll more than likely be met with an AEtherspouts or a Stunt Double blocking etc. People have completely left me alone some games because of this (even when I wasn't even holding any answers), leaving me free to build up the critical mass of mana and kill them with a Spawnsire of Ulamog or a lethal Stroke of Genius.

Currently 30% of the deck is at instant-speed and I'd like to get that higher if possible (less with low-cost mana ramp. I've found Harrow isn't that different from Cultivate for example).

MVP Cards:

• Seedborn Muse! - The more players there are the more mana you get. Considering so much of the deck is at instant speed every time you cast this card is a good day for you and a nightmare for your opponents.
• Awakening - See above. This effect is so good for you that it's even worth it to let your opponents do it as well.
• Arboria - With this out you can just stack mana unmolested.
• Rashmi, Eternities Crafter - playing a bunch of stuff on opponents turns now nets you free spells or card advantage.
• Doubling Cube - GG with seedborn muse out. 100s of mana.
• Spawnsire of Ulamog - At 30 colorless mana to basically win this is actually the easiest mana threshhold for this deck to win with. And it is definitely the most satisfying.

Please leave feedback/comments/upvotes! Please try not to suggest cards that are over $5. Anything I have in the list currently that is over that I already own because I traded for them or they were given to me.

Knowledge is cruel. It will break your heart and test your allegiances. Are you certain you want this curse?

Win Conditions

---

• Spawnsire of Ulamog - 30 colorless mana ftw.
• Braingeyser - Works as a great draw spell but can also be used to knock a player out. Usually takes around 70 mana. Sometimes way less though.
• Hydra Broodmaster - Instant speed Gelatinous Genesis which is important if Kruphix is getting exiled or bounced.
• Gelatinous Genesis - Getting 30 mana is really no problem for this deck. Considering paying only 15 is enough to get 7 7/7s out (49 power) I'd say that this is something to be feared.
• Mistcutter Hydra - Blue players hate him.
• Blue Sun's Zenith - Instant speed braingeyser. Gets shuffled in to be reused.
• Stroke of Genius - ibid. No shuffle clause but it going into the graveyard means it can be retieved.
• Sometimes Squall Line or Stormtide Leviathan or a Mimic card.

Pillowfort

---

• Stormtide Leviathan - My first rare. Since you don't do much attacking in this deck he doesn't ever stop your guys but he acts as a pretty effective Moat to your opponents by being a respectable clock himself. Great with Carpet of Flowers though.
• Arboria - Not casting spells on your turn is pretty easy in this deck.
• Dissipation Field - Dissuades attackers and sets back tempo. Also hits things like Purphoros, God of the Forge
• Propaganda - Keeps people's creatures out of your face.
• AEtherspouts - U one-sided boardwipe.
• AEtherize - ibid.
• Evacuation - Buys you some time. Isn't likely to return Kruphix because Kruphix isn't likely going to be a creature.

---

Anwers

---

• Acidic Slime - Needs no introduction. Serves the dual purpose of discouraging attacks with his slimey deathtouch.
• Bane of Progress
• Trygon Predator
• Song of the Dryads - Can lock down pesky commanders.
• Beast Within
• Rapid Hybridization
• Curse of the Swine
• Squall Line - Can serve as a win con if you somehow have more life than everyone else.

---

Counters

---

• Mystic Confluence - Does everything this deck wants.
• Arcane Denial - I like playing counters like this because they don't set you back in card advantage and it reduces the saltiness on the other side as well.
• Plasm Capture - This deck is hungry for mana.
• Rewind - ibid.
• Voidslime - Never fails to cause wtf moments by countering sacrifice abilities.
• Draining Whelk
• Overwhelming Intellect
• Gather Specimens - Opponent dares to create a token horde or Living Death the field? All of it is yours now.

---

Ramp

---

• Seedborn Muse - She makes the deck go from good to impossible to deal with.
• Animist's Awakening - Sometimes I just want to play all the lands in my deck.
• Awakening - ibid, but also just lets everyone else have a crazy time too. Kruphix can be above it all though just piling mana up.
• Elvish Mystic - Really just helps you get to a turn 3-4 Kruphix. I don't feel bad about including mana dorks here because even if they die their mana will live on through Kruphix.
• Coiling Oracle - Value snek.
• Kiora's Follower - Only in here over rampant growth or something because sometimes I get to untap Doubling Cube with it.
• Oracle of Mul Daya
• Sakura-Tribe Elder
• Carpet of Flowers - There's a good chance in EDH you're gonna be seeing some islands.
• Wild Growth - Underrated ramp.
• Frontier Siege - Works great with Kruphix's saving ability.
• Doubling Cube - Just disgusting with a big enough mana pile.
• Sol Ring
• Thought Vessel - If Kruphix gets removed this guy gives some insurance.
• Kodama's Reach
• Burgeoning - A large hand pretty much guarantees insane mana ramp all game.
• Explore - I don't think I'll ever not put this in a deck. Such a rush to hit that land.

---

Card Advantage

---

• Sylvan Library
• Dig Through Time - Instant speed card draw is pretty good here. I've never had a problem with its high mana cost.
• Treasure Cruise
• Rashmi, Eternities Crafter
• Urban Evolution
• +3 from Win Conditions

---

Utility

---

• Stunt Double - Great flash-blocker and can usually grab something really good from opponents for cheap.
• Eternal Witness
• Clever Impersonator
• Rite of Replication
• Cackling Counterpart - Works great for duplicating Kruphix in response to the rare removal that can touch him.
• Primal Command - My tutor/graveyard cleaner/noncreature removal. Great card.
• Progenitor Mimic - Put in here more for his shenanigans. Perfectly capable of taking over games.
• Torrential Gearhulk
