Probably one of the best builds so far imo. If only I have Exert and UC
Another suggestion may be to try with Managorger Hydra (cost 8, weaker version of Noyan Dar, but helps you get the damage in faster) and Bright to Light to fetch and cycle the spells faster. Seeing its a spell heavy deck (I dunno Kiora stats at max), if she can hold 8 spells, remove entirely supports or just keep Pilgrimage, swap in Sylvan Scrying or Swell of Growth and Natural Connection? or even more draw with coastal discovery.
Another good option might be comboing Bright to Light into Ugins Insight into wathever 3 other spells you draw that make you draw more (Bright to Light into ugins into Talent of Telepath/artificiers/stratus, then talent into another spell that fetches another insta cast spell, like swell of growth, then keep the chain going until no more spells can be cast). That combo, with Noyan on field is possibly a One hit KO…
Here’s my Kiora deck, its a bit out of the box but REALLY fun to play
Spells:
Nissa’s renewal
Animist Awaknings
Narural Connection
Days Undoing
Artifacts:
Prism array
Zendikar Resurgent
Thopther spy network
Part the Waterveil —> its actually really good in this deck!!!
Zendikars’s Roil
Fertile Thicket
No monstercards in this deck but still havent lost with this deck. Its not a fast deck (well it is in turns but 1 turn might take over 2 minutes) but its soooooo fun to play
General idea of this deck:
Gain so much mana each turn that it triggers all creature summonig effect 1 or more often than not multiple times each round, while getting all the cards you need (zendikars Resurgent works on token creatures)
I know its pretty high end with 5 mythics but its a pretty good build
Average Mana Cost: 8 (Once you have PtW out and a Charged up CoT average is 6.1)
Commons: 3
Uncommons: 1 (2)
Rares: 3
Mythics: 3 (2)
Basically a Landfall/Match 5 based deck that builds large token creatures quickly and keeps your opponent’s side of the board disabled/cleared.
Prism Array and Part the Waterveil keep the hand reasonably full and filled with mana from all the landfalls/match 5s. With all the gem conversion there is a decent chance for multiple chains to happen. Total of four “creatures” in the deck with the elementals and octopi that spawn.
Great synergy with Crush of Tentacles and Kiora’s third ability. I’ve been using CoT more than RtK due to the event battles but RtK has more play for Quick Battle to keep your health up. Alternatively you can run Herald of the Pantheon (7) for a very efficient creature that does a ton of healing in a deck full of supports.
Anchor to the Aether is a debatable choice but I find it helpful to keep their creatures off the board. If I don’t have mana for it now Prism Array keeps it disabled until I do most of the time.
