I really like the first half of Kinnan for EDH. I think there are a lot of cool interactions with it, and I wanted to explore them on a competitive level.

I figured out a Turn 1 combo to win as the following (on the draw, or going 2nd - 4th): Opening Hand:

• Gemstone Caverns
• Mana Crypt
• Breeding Pool
• Basalt Monolith
• Walking Balista
• Any other card

Turn 0: Play Gemstone Caverns, exiling extra card in hand Turn 1: In this order, play Breeding Pool untapped, then Kinnan, then Mana Crypt. Tap Crypt for 3, play Basalt Monolith. Generate Infinite mana, play Walking Ballista.

I think this deck could easily do a turn 2-3 with any number of card combos. I have included the following combos:

• Cephalid Illusionist + Shuko + Thassa's Oracle
• Grim Monolith/Basalt Monolith + Power Artifact
• Paradise Druid/Bloom Tender + Pemmin's Aura/Freed from the Real + Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy

I will keep tweaking the deck until I find the right combo.
