Deck overview

This Kenrith, the Returned King list operates as a versatile 5-color infinite mana combo deck supported by high-velocity engines and counter synergies. Leveraging a perfect mana base of original duals and fetchlands, the deck accelerates early via fast mana and high-yield mana dorks like Bloom Tender and Sanctum Weaver. Its central line pairs these creatures with untap engines such as Freed from the Real, Pemmin's Aura, or Staff of Domination to generate arbitrary mana. Kenrith serves as both an enabler and an immediate outlet from the command zone, utilizing his card-draw ability to force opponents to draw their entire libraries in a single turn. The deck is shielded by format-staple free countermagic and proactive silence effects like Grand Abolisher. While it includes eclectic alternate win lines like Simic Ascendancy and Twenty-Toed Toad, its core execution remains a lethal, compact combo.
