Instant (1)

Creature (1)


Want a deck that's a lot of fun and competitive as well? Build a huge board presence, shuts down enemy threats, and overwhelm them!

Prophet of Kruphix is a dancer, not a fighter! She loves Yisan, the Wanderer Bard, and together they put on the most amazing show! He plays the music that calls out the dancers. She provides the energy to get the team going. Tap, untap, tap again. More and more they come, and when haters try to disrupt our performance, we send them packing!

Energizing the party (more mana)

This deck generates a TON of mana. Elvish Mystic, Kiora's Follower, and Courser of Kruphix provide simple acceleration, then Prophet and Nykthos kick it into high gear. Prophet immediately pays for herself, doubling your mana every turn. Nykthos starts ramping as soon as the 3rd creature is played, then accelerates out of the park.

Calling out the dancers (more cards)

What good is mana without cards to spend it on? We want cards, but more than that, we often want very specific cards. You rarely need more than one each of Yisan, Courser, Polukranos, Nykthos, or Prophet, and often we want a specific answer in Reclamation Sage, or one of our instants. So this deck provides!

Yisan is solo card advantage. Every activation increases our edge. It costs mana, but we have tons, and Yisan will keep finding more cards and more mana. The big synergy is Kiora's Follower + Prophet of Kruphix + Yisan, the Wanderer Bard . Together they make 4 creatures per turn, straight from your deck, leaving your hand intact to cast even more cards as you need them.

Dig Through Time + Prognostic Sphinx = Draw exactly the cards you need. Repeatedly Scry 3 to cycle through your deck, find the card you need, then Dig to draw it (plus a second valuable card). With Courser, all this scry virtually guarantees you hit your land drops.

Genesis Hydra is two creatures for one. With Sphinx or Courser, you can plan what you pull.

Rebuffing the haters (protection and removal)

Sphinx is awesome. Besides scrying you into other power, it shuts down aggro, blocks dragons, kills planeswalkers and patiently kills your opponent. And for all that, it's virtually unkillable. They won't waste a spell when we can discard to save it, and if they do tap it down, Kiora's Follower picks it back up.

Polymorphist's Jest lets us block their formerly dangerous attacking flyers which are now attacking 1/1 frogs, or just holding it lets us attack with near impunity.

Polukranos is awesome. The big devotion in this deck gives monstrous to kill many creatures by itself, even if they don't want to block. For the tough cases, Polukranos, World Eather+Polymorphist's Jest kills big guys and hexproof guys.

Anything else we might worry about can be countered (Negate) or removed (Reclamation Sage).

Overwhelm Them

Tons of creatures on the board, a Prophet that lets all attackers come back to block, all kinds of removal and counterspells in hand, games end in a blowout. Since Supreme Verdict left the format, there's nothing we can't beat.
