Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"This deck wins by either wheeling your opponents decks until they have no cards left and die or extra turns.\n\nHere is how it works:\n\nHave at least 8 mana with "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Mystical Tutor"}},{"insert":" and a card draw spell exiled with a kick counter. Attack a player that can't block Zethi (more mana allows more combat tricks to make Zethi unblockable or indestructable) and cast MT and tutor for "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Nexus of Fate"}},{"insert":". Draw it with some effect and cast it. Nexus gets shuffled back into the deck and you repeat the combo until your opponents are dead, you've gotten enough mana to draw and cast your actual win cons.\n\nIt helps to have plenty of card draw early and have plenty of ways to discard cards or cast the cheap cantrips to fill the graveyard and have targets to exile. An early Brain Freeze can really help set you up for casting your Zethi. The only thing that would make this better is an enchantment tutor for "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Smothering Tithe"}},{"insert":". \n\nThis is a solid commander for playing a slower control mid-game so you can set-up for Zethi to attack and storm off.\n"}]}
