1000 Combo attempt 3 by user1343914

Format: Commander

Commander: Kenrith, the Returned King

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Kenrith leads a five-color reanimator/aristocrats combo deck. The mana base and one-drop dorks power out an early Kenrith, whose {3}{U} draw and {4}{B} reanimation serve as a reusable engine. There is no hidden commander; the deck is built around Kenrith as support. The primary win is an infinite sacrifice loop using Karmic Guide plus Reveillark with a sacrifice outlet and a drain effect such as Goblin Bombardment, Blood Artist, Corpse Knight, Elas il-Kor, or Mayhem Devil. Secondary paths use Sun Titan, Renegade Rallier, and Saffi Eriksdotter to rebuild or extend recursion, and Birthing Pod chains to tutor. The combos do not need Kenrith, but he provides card flow and a backup reanimation axis. The deck is resilient to spot removal yet vulnerable to graveyard hate and board wipes.
