Kefnet, the Neinful

Commander / EDH Mono-Blue

Aissling


I'm not going to go into an incredibly detailed guide on this commander, I can say that it's absolutely bonkers and should be considered a primer honestly. Why? Because he is the best blue voltron a boy could ask for.

For the record, this is Kefnet, I will add him and as foretold when it comes out.

I'm only going to supply you with the top 10 and worst 10 cards of the list.Best:

  1. Rhystic Study - This card is the perfect card for you, it does not get better than this in the deck. It alone makes your commander a 3 mana 5/5 flying indestructible, that also lets you draw cards. Every. Time.
  2. Howling Mine - Once again we find ourselves looking at things that make your commander online high on the list, I'm including Font of Mythos in the number 2 slot here as well.
  3. Caged Sun This is what makes you fly off like a rocket. Also including Extraplanar Lens and Gauntlet of Power here.
  4. Sword of Feast and Famine Sure the deck is based around the swords and smacking your opponent with some, but this sword is obviously the greatest. I have a lens and a caged sun out and i get to untap those lands to draw MORE cards? Yes please.
  5. Sensei's Divining TopThe card speaks for itself, but i'd like to point out that you can easily surprise your opponent by turning on your commander by popping on top.
  6. Time WarpYes there is also Temporal Manipulation Yes this is blue, YES this is how you win. You keep taking as many extra turns as you can. Walk the Aeons specifically is the 6.) slot here.
  7. Mana DrainWhy is Mana Drain 7th? Well, because you need to have 1-6.) established or ready to go to abuse the power of this card. If you can't afford one, that's okay. Sell your house. Buy one. Don't have a house? Sell your soul.
  8. As Foretold As Foretold is nuts. This card is broken. Free spells. FREE. SPELLS. FREE REWIND. THAT IS EVEN MORE FREE. FREE.EXE All joking aside though, this card wins games by itself if you get it out early. It isn't omniscience, but for 3 mana it's definitely powerful.
  9. Clever Impersonator This I feel the need to include simply because it helps the deck be elastic. Sure you're putting it on 3.) Every time almost, but sometimes getting a second feast and famine untap on damage to draw cards or copying an opponents Karn Liberatedis always fun.
  10. Scroll Rack This card really streamlines the deck when you have it. Hitting your threats faster is always wanted.

Worst 1 being the worst

  1. Whispersilk Cloak God this card feels gross to play. It costs 3 mana, and every time I play it I despise the shroud. It's won me games because of the shroud, but man, I'd like a rouge's passage more. *Cut for High Tide
  2. Horn of Greed This card only is here for pods. Just pods. When you start the game playing howling mine, into horn of greed, people get a "Group Hug" vibe. It's a safety net that can draw a card.
  3. Shrine of the Forsaken Gods It's great if you have some of your artifacts coming in. but if you are dry on the grey stuff, man it feels like a Wastes
  4. Sword of Body and Mind ?You have a sword in your worst list? Yup, this sword is terrible. Honestly, I may try Sword of Vengeance soon over it. *Cut for Mechanized Production
  5. Paradoxical Outcome Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the card. However, when you have to play it defensively it feels terrible. Having to rift my own boardstate so it doesnt die hurts. Although, when you play it offensively to catch a player off guard by filling your hand with cards to swing in, it feels great. (Cut for Isochron Scepter
  6. Negate Counterspells with constrictions always make me sad.
  7. Sword of Light and Shadow This card exists solely for the purpose that you don't get your day ruined by uncle sam playing Karlov of the Ghost Council and taxing you into the ground so he can go liberate the Aladdin player. Or really for any other BW general that requires you to play this Geneva convention of a card. That being said, how often does big brother show up? Not TOO often. so this card isn't all too valuable.
  8. Tolaria West It tutors for Ancestral Visions: and Mana Crypt, occasionally a Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx Thats it.
  9. Academy Ruins This card is a backup plan for the crazy Aladdin player playing every Vandalblast effect he can since Karlov of the Ghost Council stood up from the table. That being said, just a precautionary card, honestly not needed.
  10. Memory Jar I'm just angry that I had to discard my sword of feast and famine AND my Academy ruins to it one time.

I'm gonna accept the challenge and play every new god as a voltron commander, but the blue one is the best no doubt.
