Council by tcgsmooth

Format: Commander

Commander: Kenrith, the Returned King

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Kenrith, the Returned King leads a five-color 'council matters' political build. The primary plan is to bend every vote to your advantage-using Illusion of Choice, Ballot Broker, and Brago's Representative-while drawing cards with Cirdan, Erestor, and Rhystic Study. Kenrith then becomes a flexible endgame engine: Training Grounds turns his abilities into cheap mana sinks for +1/+1 pumps, card drawing, life gain, and reanimation. The deck closes games through repeated commander damage, occasionally accelerated by Expropriate or Plea for Power. There is no hidden commander; the voting-payoff creatures are supporting pieces around Kenrith.
