Matteby2813 I really enjoy what you've created here! I also like the image of a peasant-king Kenrith who has to "grow his kingdom" with like, +1/+1 counters and other resources.

  • There's a ton of "treasures and trinkets" (mana rocks you'd expect like Sol Ring or Arcane Signet) but furthered development to the theme like Staff of Domination and Explorer's Scope to help you mana fix.

  • The investment in the theme with those smart choices and things like Replicating Ring and Everflowing Chalice to reinforce he does, in fact, have family relics that imbue some kind of supernatural kind of effect. I dunno, I just think this deck does enough to develop a strong imagination!

  • I really appreciate how the list includes very obscure choices like Corpsejack Menace alongside the greatest cast of includes like Conclave Mentor and pretty much every scale-able and adjacent effect you could think of to include in the first place. It's a full serving and then some committed to the task of adding +1/+1 counters, so that's worth mentioning for sure. Great job!

  • I see haymaker cards that really seal a strong game like Faithful Watchdog and I'm so so proud to see a card like that. Why? Because in your deck, in your vision.. you saw a man who is doing whatever it takes to succeed and his best friend.. who happens to be a f@#$%king bomb for your concept! 13/10 win for the deck.

  • I really like how your deck tackles the issue of 5 colors by balancing a lot of the game after turn , which, is where you typically lead with something Green. Since this is already the case, maybe think of inclusions like Birds of Paradise since it creates one of any color? That seems to be your gameplan, is to provide one-of-any after turn .

  • I noticed you kept the Gorgon around for the list. I'm just curious as to her inclusion, and wondering if you're shipping them with Kenrith.. dare I say.. SCanDal....? I'm just joking. But no really- why include her here? Just the one-off win condition of poision death? I get it.. but wondered if you really fancied Vraska. I know I do!

This was a great list, and I'm super surprised you haven't upvoted your own deck, my friend. Be proud of your work! Look at how great it is.
