What is this deck?

This is king maker. This is not group hug. The goal is to choose one player and make them win. This deck utilizes Divvy cards and effects like Fact or Fiction and Tasigur, the Golden Fang's ability that allow "an" opponent to make piles or choose for you. If they understand what you're doing they should hand you either all the cards in a pile or a very profitable pile of cards; if they shaft you pick a new king.

Why would I want to play this?

Dictating how a game ends is much more challenging than winning a game. Sure, you can have the most hyper-aggressive-turbo-hulk combo deck that wins 98.9% of its' games between turn 1-3; but have you ever made someone who just got into the format win against a finely tuned competive deck like that?

How should I play this?

Pick Your King

figure out who's the least experienced at the table and try to make that person win; do not pick a player who's notorious for winning all the time

What I need help with

I'm only looking for cards that help 1 opponent. Cards like Hunted Horror and Hungry Lynx I do not want or need group hug cards in this deck.

Big Changes!

So, I've decided to change the commander. Kenrith, the Returned King just fits better; has more utility and is just stronger even if we're not doing infinite mana shenanigans.
