Primer to come.

A brief rundown of the concepts:

Library of Leng

This is a pure control deck, a rarity in the format, but it's the synergy between Kefnet and the Library that allows for this playstyle to be effective in more competitive settings. The flexibility of being able to discard spells we want to draw to the top of the library and then cast them off Kefnet during opposing turns is relatively unique. Rather than attempting to go for a fast win, this is a deck that will want to play for the longer game, spend early resources on basically nothing but board development and interacting with anything that could present a true game winning threat, while setting up for overdrive mode once the Library, Kefnet, and some sort of value card combine to begin amassing astonishing levels of card advantage. Pore Over the Pages and Frantic Search are key components here, allowing the deck to use draws on opposing turns to generate a ton of card draw (and in the case of Frantic Search also be mana positive untapping lands on opposing turns) each turn cycle since these spells can be cast "off the top" on each opponent's turn before then using the discard portion of their effect to put themselves back on top to be used on the next opponent's turn. In order to make this consistent the deck needs consistent ways to force draws on opposing turns and that's where cards like Teferi, Master of Time come into play. The goal here is to drain opponents of resources and cards over time and leave them unable to contest a combo win attempt when the time comes.

Trade Routes

Trade Routes + Mystic Sanctuary + extra turn spell is one method of achieving victory when the time comes by looping infinite extra turns.

Scroll Rack

Scroll Rack functions in largely the same fashion, allowing you to replace the top card of your library every turn with the extra turn spell that was just copied by Kefnet to loop infinite extra turns.

Sensei's Divining Top

Backing up the extra turn combos is the classic Mystic Top combo package, now featuring The Reality Chip which is currently being testing in place of Mystic Forge. Casting Top off the top for free allows drawing the whole library, at which point sac rocks can generate infinite mana and a pilot can loop the win condition of their choice Reality Shift, Swan Song, Pongify, Windfall, etc.
