Bracket: 5

Deck overview

This is a high-power Grixis cEDH combo deck helmed by Kefka, Court Mage // Kefka, Ruler of Ruin. The primary plan is to leverage dense fast mana and a premium tutor suite to assemble compact two-card wins-chiefly Thassa's Oracle paired with Demonic Consultation or Tainted Pact, and Underworld Breach storm lines fueled by Brain Freeze and Lion's Eye Diamond. Kefka functions as a value engine: his front face taxes hands and refills on ETB/attack, while the transformed back face converts life loss into massive card advantage. The deck plays a classic turbo-midrange game-deploy early rocks and engines like Mystic Remora and Rhystic Study, protect the stack with free counters, then win through the graveyard or library exile. Secondary angles include Wheel of Fortune/Necropotence grind and opportunistic clones of opposing threats.
