noctis

Noctis is a 5-color cEDH combo-control deck built around Kenrith, the Returned King. It plays a fast, interactive game with efficient ramp, premium tutors, and lots of disruption to assemble compact win lines while slowing opponents down with cards like Drannith Magistrate, Opposition Agent, Silence, and strong counterspells.

Its main plan is to control the table, generate mana efficiently, and tutor into a combo finish. The clearest win lines are Thassa’s Oracle + Demonic Consultation/Tainted Pact, plus Underworld Breach + Brain Freeze as a graveyard-based combo engine. Kenrith provides flexibility as a value outlet and late-game mana sink, while cards like Seedborn Muse, Training Grounds, and Biomancer’s Familiar improve his activated abilities. Overall, the deck wins by leveraging strong card advantage and interaction until it can safely land a protected combo.
