Underworld Breach

Enchantment

Each nonland card in your graveyard has escape. The escape cost is equal to the card's mana cost plus exile three other cards from your graveyard. (You may cast cards from your graveyard for their escape cost.)

At the beginning of the end step, sacrifice this.

You do have a lot of cantrips and rituals, although I would consider running Dark Ritual as well. It's the most mana efficient ritual, and being able to cast Necropotence turn 1 or suddenly flash in an Opposition Agent off of just one open black mana is pretty strong. Brainstorm would be worth considering but I don't think that you have enough ways to shuffle your library right now to get the most use out of it. Maybe if you upped the number of fetch lands that you are running. Night's Whisper is a possible consideration for another cheap draw spell.

I do think that some of the top end of your deck could be replaced. Too many expensive storm payoff cards means that you have a higher chance of having them clogging your starting hand and first few draws, which is rough for a deck that wants to be setting up and casting a bunch of cheap spells. I really think that Eye of the Storm should go because there is a high chance that your opponents may get to benefit from it more than you do. You could replace the more expensive cards with wheels and card draw engines to help you keep your hand full and find your remaining win conditions faster. Windrider Wizard or Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain could be worth considering depending on how mana artifacts vs spells your final list ends up running. Gale, Waterdeep Prodigy can help you cast more spells in a turn but might not be what you want if you are hoping to stock up your graveyard for Underworld Breach.

You may end up needing a couple more board wipes depending on your meta. If everyone in your play group is just aiming to hit their combos the fastest then you may not need to worry about being beaten down by creatures before someone combos off and wins the game. If you are facing a bunch of creature-focused decks then more board wipes like Toxic Deluge may be necessary.

Hindering Touch doesn't seem like a strong enough counterspell to be running in Bracket 4. There is always Force of Will or Pact of Negation, but another one that may be worth considering is Muddle the Mixture for its option of being a tutor. It can grab Brain Freeze or Underworld Breach, and if you add in the dramatic Scepter combo then it can grab those cards too.

Hi. I saw your post asking for some feedback. I have a few suggestions I could offer but I was hoping to start with a question first.

Do you want this to specifically be an optimized storm deck, or an optimized Kess deck for bracket 4?

I think that the list is currently stuck trying to decide what it wants to be. You have a bunch of potential Storm finishers in the deck but you don't have much in the way of mana generation engines and wheel effects to refill your hand and keep the spellcasting train going. Cost reducing effects are less useful to storm than being able to generate a bunch of colored mana is.

The deck's strongest win condition is the Brain Freeze + Underworld Breach + Lotus Petal combo that lets you mill your deck and then cast Thassa's Oracle from the graveyard for the win, but you are missing Demonic Consultation to also pair with the Oracle and you're lacking a bunch of tutors to help you find your combo pieces quickly. If you go in on focusing on the combo aspect of the deck, then you won't really need the Storm stuff to help you win. You can just run a bunch of control cards and tutors.

So, which direction would you be happiest to see the deck go?

Mr. Umbra! Long time lurker, first time commenter! I love your deck building style; been playing your Isshin list for some years now. Question! If you ran this list without the 3 gnarly game changers (Drannith Magistrate, Underworld Breach & Opposition Agent) as a bracket 3 list, what would your personal swaps be? I've been considering Joshua, Phoenix's Dominant  Flip & Azra Oddsmaker but would love to hear your opinion!

I reckon, what the deck really needs, is lots of cheap spells that can be cast on every player's turn, to get the most value out of the flurry mechanic. The game plan should be to cast Shiko and Narset, Unified on turn 4, prepare the board beforehand, and then spam small, damage-dealing spells that can easily be brought back with tricks like Underworld Breach, Lier, Disciple of the Drowned, or by recasting copies with Narset, Enlightened Exile. You could then replace draw-discard effects with more "pure" card draw options like Treasure Cruise (if you have a lot of cards in your graveyard), Quick Study or flexible draw like Flame of Anor. The main gameplay should revolve around cheap, repeatable spells, but there can also be some utility from the Magecraft mechanic. Most importantly, the deck should keep continuous pressure on opponents by dealing large amounts of damage through copying small spells.

Must have: Path to Exile, Cyclonic Rift

Useful: Cori Mountain Stalwart, Devoted Duelist, Monk of the Open Hand, Ashling, Flame Dancer, Jori En, Ruin Diver, Ledger Shredder, Smoldering Egg  Flip, Burst Lightning, Electrolyze, Virtue of Courage, Fire / Ice, Galvanic Blast, Heartflame Duelist, Ionize, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Helix, Lightning Strike, Magma Jet, Parch, Play with Fire, Punishing Fire, Risk Factor, Sacred Fire, Searing Spear, Shock, Skullcrack, Thunderbolt, Wild Slash

Possible: Taigam, Master Opportunist, Breeches, the Blastmaker, Gale, Waterdeep Prodigy, Rammas Echor, Ancient Shield, Storm of Saruman, Turn / Burn, Price of Progress, Finale of Promise, Increasing Vengeance, Frolicking Familiar, Molten Influence, Slaying Fire, Wizard's Lightning,

Unless you absolutely just want to stay on theme, which is fine, I have some considerations for you

Blast-Furnace Hellkite is expensive, but basically the best dragon, you've seen the horrors of Terror of Mount Velus as well, so consider at least one of them. Obsidian Charmaw is also amazing at punishing nonbasic land use.

Consider throwing in some more rituals in addition to Seething Song, for stormscale scion/dragonstorm. Its overpowered but Past in Flamesfoil and Underworld Breach can be absurd with that.

You have almost no draw. Some dragons can help with that, or there's always wheels

I'd dump Metallic Mimic in favor of Bloodline Pretender unless you really need the lord effect since he counts a dragon no matter what zone he is in. Taurean Mauler is also nuts.

Always consider Boompile and Nevinyrral's Disk in red. you dont have any other way to handle enchantments, and they help you survive to the late game, which is important when most of your stuff is very expensive and you dont happen to have your cost reducers.

Draconic Roar and Spit Flame really weak for commander in general. maybe look at Mizzium Mortars instead.

If sarkhan ever gets big enough to be a threat something like Two-Handed Axe , Temur Battle Rage , Rush of Blood, or Fatal Frenzy can be deadly

Agreed - in fact, out of the 20 game changers, only about 7 can arguably end the game (and most of these, like Underworld Breach, are reliant on existing board state).
