Yes. All the yes. I'm mainly looking for good red and blue spells at this point, I have almost all the stax cards that I want.

No. I hate to be nitpicky, but since vortex has a lower mana cost, assault isn't strictly better. I do agree that it is better, though.

I guess. What I like about Assault is the fact that you don't need to pay mana to do the damange

It doesn't matter at all. One is not strictly better than the other.

If you're talking about the starcitygames vs series deck, it is hilarious. I thought about switching stax out for this whenever I wanna play "fair", as all I'd have to do is add a bunch of lands, treasure hunt, and seismic assault

{Electrolize}, {Isochron Scepter}, {Counterflux} (grade A combo breaker), {Essence Backlash} for the lols, {Goblin Electromancer}/{Jace's Sanctum}, {Quicksilver Dagger}, {Dismiss into Dream}.

I have jaces, goblin, and counterflux in the deck already but dismiss into dream seems hilarious with keranos! Thanks! ☺️

Might not be totally on flavor, but dream combo's nicely with  {Descent of the Dragons}.
They sac all their creatures, you turn any of yours into a dragon.

Just throwing it out there, but {Jokulhaups} and {Obliterate} are amazing if you have enough enchantments and planeswalkers to keep Keranos a creature after they resolve.  No one has any resources and you just beat them to death with a 6/5.

But but, {mogis, god of slaughtering with painful enchantments} obliterating  jokulhaups is his win con.

But in all seriousness. I have never had a game where someone has recovered from it, in my mogis deck. Specially if you can hold a few lands before you blast everything.
