EDH deck for Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer. Flood the battlefield with morphs, draw cards, and finish out the game through sheer board presence plus mass pump effects - or one of a couple of fiddly combos at the deck's disposal.

Using Brine Elemental and Vesuvan Shapeshifter, you can set up the infamous "pickles" lock forcing your opponents to skip their untap steps indefinitely, assuming they are tapped out (or low enough to be unable to interact for a few turns).

Using a combination of Obscuring Aether, Ugin, and Primordial Mist allows you to repeatedly exile and cast any morph, yielding infinite draw triggers from Kadena.

Flash-granting effects such as Teferi, Vivien, and Leyline of Anticipation allow the free casting of a morph on each of the opponent's turns for as long as Kadena is in play.

Swaps to make:

• Strionic Resonator -> Etrata, Deadly Fugitive
• Dimir Aqueduct -> Underground River
• Simic Growth Chamber -> Hinterland Harbor

Potential cuts:

• Hunted Bonebrute: Currently playtesting, possibly too weak.
• Cryptic Coat: Currently playtesting. Nice repeatable way to get face-down ETB triggers, but could be too slow.
• Branch of Vitu-Ghazi: Currently playtesting, unsure if this will win out over Zoetic Cavern or if both are worth an inclusion.
• Zoetic Cavern: Unsure if this is worth a slot any more especially compared with Branch of Vitu-Ghazi.
• Sultai Charm: I love this card, but it may be past its prime.

Potential additions:

• Dream Chisel: Make morphs cheaper, also combos with Ugin and Primordial Mist in place of Obscuring Aether.
• Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter: Additional way to grant morphs flash.
• Wilderness Reclamation: Potentially great value card, allows you to spend all your mana on your turn and threaten morph activations or just more spells on the opponents'. Especially good combo with the deck's flash enablers.
• Vannifar, Evolved Enigma: auto include once I pick one up.
• Panoptic Projektor
