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

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Grixis discard-and-wheel value deck built around Kefka, Court Mage // Kefka, Ruler of Ruin. The front side is an enter/attack trigger that makes each player discard, then draws cards based on the card types discarded; the back side transforms the game into a life-loss-to-card-draw engine. The primary plan is to deploy discard payoffs like Waste Not, Megrim, and Bone Miser, cast Kefka to churn through cards, then pay the {8} transform cost into Kefka, Ruler of Ruin and resolve a mass wheel so that opponent life loss turns into huge draws, which Psychosis Crawler and Niv-Mizzet, Parun convert into lethal damage. Secondary lines include Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger recursion, Tinybones, Bauble Burglar theft, and a Wizard-tribal subtheme with Harmonic Prodigy and Wizard's Staff.
