Reality Shift

Instant

Exile target creature. Its controller manifests the top card of his or her library. (That player puts the top card of his or her library onto the battlefield face down as a 2/2 creature. If it's a creature card, it can be turned face up at any time for its mana cost.)

There are a few wincons in this list, actually! Its a slow control build, moreover this is pretty close to my base list that I modify depending on meta.

Nexus of Fate Loops

Starting State Requires ETI + 12 mana to cast it:

Cast Enter the Infinite (-12 mana)

Cast Mana Crypt (+2 mana)

Cast Mana Vault (-1 mana, 4 mana overall)

Cast Sol Ring (-1 mana, 5 mana overall)

Cast Isochron Scepter imprinting Dramatic Reversal , and then activate it (-2, -2, 1 mana in pool)

You now have infinite mana (Colorless and useless if you did not play Chrome Mox or Mox Diamond)

Cast Nexus of Fate and pass turn to yourself. Enjoy your infinite turns!

Twister Loops

Cast Enter the Infinite (-12 mana)

Cast Mana Crypt (+2 mana)

Cast Mana Vault (-1 mana, 4 mana overall)

Cast Sol Ring (-1 mana, 5 mana overall)

Cast Sensei's Divining Top (-1 mana, 4 mana overall)

Cast Isochron Scepter imprinting Dramatic Reversal , and then activate it (-2, -2, 0 mana in pool)

You now have infinite mana (Colorless and useless if you did not play Chrome Mox or Mox Diamond)

Cast Hullbreacher and then Timetwister

Activate Isochron enough times to stack enough Sensei draw triggers to pick up your library

Now you're in a state where you can infinitely recast any spell in your deck, nobody else has cards in hand, and you can kinda do whatever. If you want to Reality Shift everyone's deck down to 0, you can.

Meta Packages

Cursed Totem & Crop Rot for Tabernacle are the wide anti-creature stax pieces. Rashmi can operate through a cursed totem, so if your meta is really green, its a good option that doesn't slow us down that much. Tabernacle is even crazier, it punishes dork/tymna decks and all kinds of commander dependant strats.

This list also leverages creature tutors and Collector Ouphe, but doesn't run Null Rod. We cant tutor Rod, it feeds dockside (though it makes the treasures inoperable), so I leaned harder into anti-artifact + anti-creature synergies. Cuz it means we can hate on every strategy in a meaninful way.

Even heavier anti-creature versions of my Rashmi list exist, notably "PolyNezahal", which has only Nezahal on board, leans into artifacts, and includes stuff like Oko and Narset to circumvent a lack of Hullbreacher.

The thing is I have hated Pongify , Rapid Hybridization , and Reality Shift for quite some time since they basically make blue the second best color at single-target creature removal in EDH, it's perverse. Giving it Abrade on steroids isn't exactly moving things in a desirable direction for me

Grind on Kess, Budget Mage

Sweet deck!!
In my opinion, Impulse and Anticipate are both preferable to deliberate and budget friendly.
Also you didn't mention your dualcaster mage + twinflame combo in your description. I also like Heat Shimmer over or in addition to twinflame bc it can provide value if your opponent is playing good creatures, and still perform the dualcaster mage combo.
You're already running narset parter of veils, so Windfall seems like a great inclusion.
Also i would vote for Reality Shift over one of your point removal sorceries like cut/ribbons. I have found instant speed exile can get you out of many tight binds.
Just some thoughts, cheers and have fun!!!

And if you DO end up deciding that Kinnan and all his infinite mana shenanigans are a good route to go down, I suggest throwing in Timetwister , Beast Within , Reality Shift , and Kozilek, Butcher of Truth (and maybe Memory's Journey to cover yourself.)

Time twister + Thrasios, Triton Hero (or any card draw engine Compulsion , Stroke of Genius for example) can be used to infinitely cast the same spell over and over and over. Ashnod's Altar or any other sac outlet if you want that spell to be a creature.

Happy hunting! :)

Good questions. I personally like Reality Shift more, but 1-cmc removal is certainly not something to mess with. Depends how much mana you usually find yourself having open on other people's turns ig.

As to your point about Isochron Scepter ... it's just one card of 100. Vandalblast is a great card--but then so is Abrade . I would say play the deck against some folks and see how often you'd like to be able to kill all their artifacts at once.

I have a Pongify and a Reality Shift , which one is better?

Ooh just realized you're gonna want a Pongify / Rapid Hybridization / Reality Shift / Ravenform . Basically some of the best removal in the format, and any of those are better than Lightning Helix (keep in mind that in EDH you'll have to deal with some big shit)

All Is Dust will also affect a lot of your permanents. If you have Mycosynth Lattice on the board, your opponents' permanents will not be affected, at all. Ofc, your artifacts will not be affected, but even your commander has blue color identity and will be affected. I would therefore recommend to go for Scourge of Fleets instead. AEtherize might be a good protective wipe as well.

Also your deck could use some spot removals like Reality Shift or Amphin Mutineer
