High power Kess deck with multiple win cons through infinite combos. Uses Kess for value to stall and draw combo pieces. Fringe competitive but lacks the mana base or budget to be cEDH standard yet. I plan to upgrade the deck as my budget allows, eventually going for cEDH Consultation Kess list. Combos: -(12/13 mana) Archaeomancer/Mnemonic Wall + ghostly flicker + perigrine drake for infinite mana then win with volcanic geyser/Blue Suns Zenith/Stroke Of Genius/Damnable Pact/impact tremors -(8/9/10 mana) Dualcaster mage + cackling counterpart/ghostly flicker for infinite ETBs then outpost siege/guttersnipe/impact tremors for the win. -Isochron Scepter + Dramatic Reversal + Staff of Nin for infinite pings.

Usually use tutors for impact tremors, ghostly flicker or dualcaster mage

Use 2 mana Transmute for Dramatic reversal

Use fabricate to fetch Isochron scepter

Use 3 mana transmute for dualcaster/cackling counterpart/ghostly flicker/guttersnipe
