Flarhoon13 on Kenrith, the Cycling King

7 months ago

May 3, 2024, I started a new quest. Having built 52 decks, I endeavoured to play them all, in roughly the same order as I created them.

Blaine's house

Kenrith the Cycling King win. Fluctuator allowed me to cycle 10ish cards. Kenrith reanimated Archfiend of Ifnir and all of my opponents rode Kurtis' wave of salt and immediately conceded. Blaine's elves never balled, no mana dorks tapped for mana, Priest of Titania died sick. Rob folded Derevi, Empyrial Tactician bird tribal.  Only Spencer on Rat tribal stayed in but died to Kenrith and Ifnir beats; bringing my record to 24-26. People were salty .480

Caerwyn is also completely correct if you were really looking to take the deck from chip damage to what is effectively a combo win. Not sure what kind of power level you're looking to be at though... The chip damage can be fun to play against, the dark deals and friends often just win before opponents have much of a chance. Great direction if you're having trouble getting wins. Gets kinda boring after a few months though imo.

Although Tergrid, God of Fright  ^Flip, Sangromancer, and Archfiend of Ifnir become quite funny in Wheel-usar.

StopShot - Vengeful Dreams looks awesome. White has been getting a lot of card draw options lately... I need to try this out.

DrukenReaps - Shifting Shadow is a fun card. I hate to sound like a broken record... but this this is arguably better than Sneak Attack in Marchesa.

FormOverFunction - Roiling Vortex seems amazing in a meta with commanders like Narset and Etali.

GoldenAgeBatman - Yeah, in the right deck Archfiend of Ifnir will pull in some work.

griffstick Thank you for a reminder this card exists. I used to have a foil... but I need to toss this in my Alela deck now.

Gleeock/Suns_Champion - I like a lot on both those lists. I've eyeballed Prosperous Partnership but haven't found a spot for it. Generator Servant was the only creature I ran in my Narset deck.

Tyrant-Thanatos - I always liked Deglamer. I didn't even know their was a functional reprint.

Anyways, keep em coming. Remember, a little context on who you run it in and why go a long way though.

Undead Alchemist in Varina, Lich Queen has been phenomenal, especially against other creature heavy decks. Archfiend of Ifnir and Zombie Infestation are also a wonderful combo to destroy an opponent's board while building up your own.

Have you considered Archfiend of Ifnir in the deck? It can be very effective at handling go wide decks.

Also it works with my other mechanic. Archfiend of Ifnir and Withering Hex. But I do agree I don't have quite enough so i'll cut it.
