Necropotence

Enchantment

Skip your draw step.

Whenever you discard a card, exile that card from your graveyard.

Pay 1 life: Exile the top card of your library face down. Put that card into your hand at the beginning of your next end step.

The card that makes me happiest to see on the GC list is Necropotence. Why it wasn't on the list before, I don't know.

The unbanning of Coalition Victory makes me sad, though. Mostly because it'll just encourage more five-color goodstuff.

Cool Build. I have a pretty mean Kaalia myself but its rather competitive. Yours looks fun to play I just tested it a few times. Love the Sneak Attack as a backup. Feel free to take a look at mine if you'd like. My only real suggestions after seeing your maybe list is to tune the creatures a bit more and sell that Alpha/Beta D-Tutor ... buy a Chrome Mox. Would leave you with a few $$ to really deck this thing out. Id also be running all 3 Talismans. A revised Demonic tutor is Rather affordable. I run Gamble Demonic Tutor, Enlightened Tutor, Vampiric Tutor, Grim Tutor, And Imperial Seal. More tutors and maybe Steelshaper's Gift to get the Greaves out fast. Diabolic Tutor works just fine to go get an Avacyn or something and get the whole table salty Lotus Petal is clutch too and chronically slept on IMO, especially when it comes to Kaalia... Im pretty sure Jeweled Lotus is banned in EDH now so maybe let that one go too. Necropotence is stupid good in a Kaalia deck, especially if you can get a Reliquary Tower out. As soon as i focused more on tutors, mana rocks, and a few board-wipes Wrath of God Day of Judgment Damn She started going off quick and dirty.Sensei's Divining Top is super helpful too. I wouldn't sleep on Dark Ritual if you're short a Jeska's Will. I slip a Dark Rit in mine from time to time depending on where I'm playing. I also run Armageddon and Catastrophe. Sometimes Winter Orb ...locks everyone down once I have Her out. I Cant tell you how many times Steel Hellkite has won the game for me. Blows up all dorks and keeps opponents rocks at bay. Plus you can grab him with Enlightened tutor. Dragon Mage could work in this to help load up youre Kaalia drops without needing a Wheel of Fortune Solid build!! Ive been tuning mine for years now.

It shuts down some very poweful stuff like phyrexian mana, Necropotence and Flooded Strand and the other fetchlands like it. The shocklands ( Sacred Foundryfoil ) become mere guildgates. It could be a middle-of-the-road card in bracket 3 decks to punish the players who overbuilt and overoptimised for their bracket in, probably, a mono white deck. Niche corner to perform, but the anthem does help most mono white strategies that would want to play this, so that it's not a dead card when your opponents don't play fetchlands. It both slows your opponents, and speeds up your mono white win. That's far from horrible in commander. If the anthem is not going to help your boardstate much in a multicolor deck, I'd have hesitations to play it though.

It also shuts down Aristocrat strategies. If you hate those with a passion, play this card.

I'm not sure if there's room for more combo suggestions, since this looks really solid as-is, but:

Relic of Progenitus doesn't draw 4 cards in a turn. Ketramose says "Whenever one or more cards are put into exile from graveyards..." since it is a single effect exiling from multiple graveyards it is 1 Ketramose trigger. If it said "...from a graveyard.." it would count each graveyard individually.

Still a great card for a Ketramose deck since it is 1 mana artifact that taps to draw a card with Ketramose on the battlefield. It is a draw engine though, not burst draw. I think that making some cuts to add in Relic of Progenitus and similar repeatable exiles as engines with Ketramose would go a long way to feeling like your deck is "doing the thing".

Depending on budget good repeatable draw engines with the commander could be:

Agatha's Soul Cauldron

Crook of Condemnation

Ghost Vacuum

Unlicensed Hearse

Necropotence is a good draw engine as well and would let you get Ketramose online at will. And Triumph of Saint Katherine seems like a good value piece.

Profet93 Haven't encountered any issue with card draw. Between Necropotence and the various on death draw triggers, as well as the GY being an extension of the hand with the commander, I can usually manage pretty effectively. I haven't had a bad game with this deck yet. It may be anecdotal, but this has played out to be incredibly resilient and almost inexhaustible, when it comes to resources. As for endless ranks, it is a little high on the CMC for something that doesn't do anything for a turn and we hope it gets back around to impact gameplay.

Swap half of your swamps with snow covered swamps to more easily trigger field of the dead.

Personally, Ugin, the Ineffable > Introduction to Annihilation - Costs 1 more but can draw, ramp, create blockers and can even remove some artifacts and enchantments.

Panharmonicon - Might be worth considering even all your landfall and ETB triggers. Perhaps over seer's sundial or endless atlass? Both cards are a relatively weak form of draw. If you want draw, why not just add in Syphon Mind, Necropotence or Read the Bones?

You need some more ramp IMO, how has your deck been playing with your current ramp package? Your average cmc is low enough, you got enough lands, appear to have enough draw with all the group hug land going on. Perhaps something like a Mind Stone over a land? I love having lots of lands, especially in land based builds. I do occasionally find myself needing more. What's your experience been like?
