Open to infinite mana? Freed from the Real and Pemmin's Aura are great for Zax.

Pemmin's Aura and Freed from the Real will give you infinite mana with Kinnan and any mana dork that produces {U}.

Best mana dork, Bloom Tender. I've searched for two drop since Mh2 in 2022 only to be stuck with Sanctum Weaver and Incubation Druid. While the Latter two can fit in some decks, Bloom Tender is just insane in commanders with at least 3 colors and is a target on sight. Getting it out with a 5 color commander just goes crazy.

The first two regularly see play in high power levels, and I think more would be unbalanced. A 3 drop is balanced, and perhaps the game is better that way.

A legendary Mana Dork may regularly incites issues. Zaxara, the Exemplary already exist, but once you have a dork in the command zone it's just ever tempting to add Freed from the Real and Pemmin's Aura to get infinite mana, after which the deck's strategy just becomes do infinite things.

It would be nice to have a balanced version with drawbacks, like Garth One-Eye or ways to stop riders or activate once a turn, now that they're adding this regularly now.

Nice deck, I'm a big fan of esper ;) How about something like Pemmin's Aura, Patriar's Seal, Freed from the Real to abuse Ertai's ability ;) and maybe some token generation to always have something to sack?

NV_1980 on Arcanis, The Warrior … and his armada

Very interesting take on Arcanis. Bribery seems a fun way to steal key cards from your opponents and thus make life more difficult for them. Freed from the Real and Pemmin's Aura could both prove very useful in allowing you to use Arcanis' draw ability multiple times per turn. This is a bit of an expensive upgrade, but Mind Over Matter could even allow you to have Arcanis draw your deck (at the cost of one discard per draw-cycle). Since you're a long-time Arcanis player, you might be interested on my take on him at the center of a mill-deck.

Your assessment is valid. Zaxara, the Exemplary is a definite luxury in a deck that focuses on throwing around +1 +1 counters like nobody's business. Aside for the potential to create infinite mana with Pemmin's Aura, Zaxara's presence is tied to the high number of X spells inundating the 99 of this build (over two dozen). With an admittedly diverse and robust amount of ramp spells (more than a dozen), the X-theme of this deck can function independent of Zaxara. For the purposes of clarity, Asceticism's inclusion in the deck is more for blanketed protection than providing Zaxara with individualized protection. We have the aforementioned Pemmin's Aura and Lightning Greaves for that. Protecting our Hydra creatures from spot-removal is the top priority for Asceticism. Investing high amounts of mana into a Hydra and then watching it get plucked from the battlefield with a spot-removal spell or ability is quite deflating. However, in order to diversify our layers of protection, perhaps some instant-speed protection would also be beneficial. There is definitely space in the 99 to accommodate some counter-magic and Heroic Intervention-like spells. Thank you for your kind words! I appreciate them. Happy brewing!
