Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"Standard caveat: I'm only playing with the cards I have, feel free to switch out strictly better cards. This is meant to be a kraken/serpent/octopus deck, but works best with a landfall shell. Tried a couple of mock games with Kenessos as the commander but it didn't work as well. I left the added scry cards in here still so that I could more easily get past do-nothing draws. The combination of removal and planeswalkers could probably use a little tweaking. I did find Kiora, Behemoth Beckoner to be excellent in this deck. Calculated commander power level: 5\n"}]}
