Kenrith is the perfect toolbox commander - the ability to reanimate your own creatures (and your opponents', if necessary) is absolutely amazing. With access to all five colors, Kenrith gives us access to many answers and just as many threats to our opponents.

The primary win condition of this deck is to win through an infinite mana combo. With infinite mana, we can simply cast Kenrith and force our opponents to draw out their libraries by sinking our mana into his fourth ability.

Backup win conditions are found in the form of Maze's End or straightforward beatdown. The deck is built with a reanimator/mill shell, which is strongly supported by heavy ramp and combat tricks. Access to five colors also gives us an excuse to play "fun" cards like Child of Alara! The most notable downfall of this deck is the manabase - in order to improve this deck, I'd probably swap out the gates for shocks/fetches.

Infinite Mana Combos:

1a) Vigean Graftmage + Incubation Druid (where Druid already has a +1/+1 counter)

1b) Protean Hulk death trigger --> finding Graftmage + Druid + Torch Courier (to give Druid haste)

2) Temur Sabertooth + Dockside Extortionist (where # of opponent-controlled artifacts/enchantments >= 3)

Edit 9/15/21: still figuring out what to replace Golos with post-ban announcement. Candidates listed in Maybe section - strongest suggestion so far is Imperial Recruiter as there are 20 eligible targets in this deck for his search ability.
