Kefka, Court Mage

Format: Commander

Commander: Kefka, Court Mage // Kefka, Ruler of Ruin

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Kefka, Court Mage is a Grixis wizard-combo deck that uses the front face's discard-and-draw trigger as a refueling engine before pivoting to infinite creatures or extra combat steps. The front face is the primary commander; the back face is a late-game payoff, usually paired with Niv-Mizzet, Parun, who acts as the hidden commander. The main line is Dualcaster Mage plus a copy spell (Twinflame, Electroduplicate, or Ghostly Flicker) for infinite hasty attackers. Secondary lines use Rionya or Delina copying Combat Celebrant to chain combats. A dense counter and removal suite plus tutors keep the combo on schedule, while Kess and reanimation spells provide redundancy. The deck is fast but can be slowed by graveyard hate and mass removal.
