Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"Powerlevel: 8\nThis is a casual faux-group hug deck designed to \"mill\" (actually draw) everybody out.\n\nGAMEPLAN"},{"attributes":{"header":1},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nKenrith is a benevolent King. He gives everyone cards and lands so everybody underestimates his true intentions. You want to keep people off you by casting the group hug pieces and ramping everybody while slowly building towards your victory. Heliod or Smothering Tithe are your WinCons. You wanna build a boardstate where you can cast Smothering Tithe and then Wheel. This will net you ALOT of treasures and you hopefully draw into another \"Draw X\" - Spell and rinse and repeat. The deck is filled with ways to stall the game and control your opponents. You can alternatively also choose to not win and just grouphug people if that is what you like.\n\nIf you have smothering tithe out (should always be your tutor target) and you mill, you will usually net around 20+ treasures and hopefully draw into a draw x spell or another draw x spell. You can cast your x-mill spell for each land, but you have to watch out if somebody is running Kozileks or other engines that shuffle their deck back if they hit the GY. Skyscribing can be revealed for 3 - everyone draws - you get 3 treasures. You can repeat this until you have 1 card left in your deck. \n\nThe deck runs no laboratory maniacs and no other pieces like that, because you simply don't need it. Usually you can play it in a way where the opponents are forced to draw themselves to death, while you still have a deck. Alternatively you can cast Angels Grace to not lose this turn and draw everyone out (everyone loses) which makes you win.\n\nThis deck is very consistent, even if people know what it does. Usually people underestimate how fast you can get towards your combo.\nThis deck uses NO INFINITES. The combo is manual and uses alot of mana, but not infinite mana and always plays out differently.\n"}]}
