AKA, how to kill your commander.

This goal is simple. Steal every creature on the field. Play Keiga, clone Keiga, clone is put into its owner's graveyard as a state-based effect, steal a creature. Rinse and repeat.

The deck runs a few effects to preserve this interaction, or at least fail gracefully. If you can't steal opponent's creatures due to a wayward homeward path, the path can get hit with Strip Mine. If that's infeasible or your opponent's creatures are hexproof, simply clone their creature and kill them with it. It's not a perfect system but it's still strong.

If keiga is killed and you really need to steal something immediately, let her go to the yard. You'll dig her back out later with a delve card or God-Pharaoh's Gift.

I know that this wizard tribal subtheme looks super jank on paper. All I can tell you is that it plays amazingly in the lategame and really powers the engine once you've stabilized.
