Reki turns your deck into a legendary-heavy 'goodstuff' pile where casting legendary creatures, planeswalkers, and artifacts refills your hand. You ramp early, deploy a critical mass of legends to draw cards every turn, and grind opponents out of resources before overwhelming the board with superior card advantage.
Repeatable, low-effort card draw that scales with how legend-dense your deck is
Mono-green ramp lets you out-mana the table and chain multiple legendary spells per turn
Legendary creatures are individually powerful, giving high floor on every draw
Recasts itself cheaply at 3 mana, and Reki triggers off your own commander-style spells
Mono-green means no interaction with the stack and limited removal
Reki only draws on cast, so being countered or having Reki removed shuts off the engine
Slow to come online compared to dedicated combo decks
Legendary clutter can create awkward hands and the legend rule punishes duplicates
Turns your lands into a lethal army and pumps the whole team for a green finish.
Tighten the legend density so nearly every nonland card triggers Reki, and add fast mana like Sol Ring, Mana Crypt, and the green dorks. Include protection (Heroic Intervention, Veil of Summer-style effects via Allosaurus Shepherd) and a clean combo finish such as Selvala + Temur Sabertooth into Walking Ballista to convert card advantage into a deterministic win.
