Coven Counters deck has a 20 card overlap (excluding lands), with both decks synergizing well with each other for a smooth transition.

Human Tribal so Kyler, Sigardian Emissary gets big, making all the humans big. Big humans means big Champion of Lambholt so all your creatures are unblockable.

Power Plays:

Playing Increasing Devotion when Kyler is on the field will, at the absolute worst, make 5 6/6 tokens for 5 mana. The worst you can do with a flashback is 10 11/11 tokens. And it only gets better from there.

With Champion of Lambholt + Kyler, Sigardian Emissary each creature you put out will add +2/+2 to the Champion's power, quickly making all your creatures unblockable by your opponents.

Slippery Bogbonder can give your commander Hexproof as well as all +1/+1 counters on your creatures (which will then buff all your creatures) for a large power spike.

Wild Beastmaster gets so pumped up in this deck that when it swings, games end.

Archetype of Courage and will give all your humans First Strike, then throw in a Rick, Steadfast Leader so they also all have Vigilance and Lifelink.

Other Fun Stuff:

Power Conduit can be used to move a +1/+1 counter from a creature to Door of Destinies to spread your team buffing out so spot removal is less effective at shutting you down. Obviously it can be just put on Kyler if Door is not out.

If Luminous Broodmoth is out Power Conduit can remove the flying counter from a creature so when it dies for a second time it will just come right back again, triggering Human ETB triggers yet again. Any counters on Beastmaster Ascension above 7 can be removed with Power Conduit as well so they aren't just sitting there doing nothing.

With all the token generation going on Aura Shards is kind of nasty in how much removal it offers and as a MAY effect you won't start blowing up your own artifacts and enchantments.

For 5{G}{G}{G} you can add 2 +1/+1 counters and then multiply the number of counters on that creature by 2 twice with Visions of Dominance (Kyler could start with 1 counter on it, + 2 * 2 + 2 * 2, now all humans are +16/+16)

Human ETB Triggers:

Champion of Lambholt, Champion of the Parish, Heronblade Elite, Kyler, Sigardian Emissary, Thalia's Lieutenant

Panharmonicon to double up these triggers

Token Generation:

Adeline, Resplendent Cathar, Westvale Cult Leader  , Thraben Doomsayer, Cathar's Call, Call the Coppercoats, Increasing Devotion, Sunset Revelry, Visions of Glory

All About +1/+1 Counters:

Champion of Lambholt, Champion of the Parish, Heronblade Elite, Leinore, Autumn Sovereign, Luminarch Aspirant, Orzhov Advokist, Thalia's Lieutenant, Sword of Truth and Justice, Increasing Savagery, Visions of Dominance, Inspiring Call, Ruinous Intrusion, Snakeskin Veil, Unbreakable Formation, Branching Evolution, Citadel Siege, Hardened Scales, Hydra's Growth, Together Forever

Protection, particularly for Kyler:

Bastion Protector, Champion of Lambholt, Destiny Spinner, Mother of Runes, Slippery Bogbonder, Stalwart Pathlighter, Commander's Plate, Sword of Truth and Justice, Flawless Maneuver, Heroic Intervention, Inspiring Call, Snakeskin Veil, Unbreakable Formation, Spider Umbra, Together Forever
