Laughing Gophers are back by Codiify

Format: Commander

Commander: Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy

Bracket: 5

Deck overview

Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy is the engine: every nonland permanent tapped for mana produces an extra mana, and his activation cheats in non-Human threats. The primary plan is to land Kinnan early, make infinite colorless mana with Basalt Monolith (or Basalt/Grim Monolith plus Power Artifact), and convert it through Thrasios, Triton Hero - the hidden commander - into a deck-drawing loop that ends with Finale of Devastation and a hasty, giant board. Backup lines use Hullbreaker Horror/Tidespout Tyrant bounce loops and Seedborn Muse to outvalue opponents. The Invasion of Ikoria front face is a flexible creature tutor; Zilortha is the backup beater, not the build-around.
