Kang the Conqueror
Flying Power-up — {5}{U}{U}{U}: Put a +1/+1 counter on Kang. Take an extra turn after this one. During that turn, power-up abilities can't be activated. (Activate each power-up ability only once. Reduce the cost by his mana cost if he entered this turn.)
How Kang the Conqueror decks play in EDH
Kang the Conqueror is a mono-blue commander costing 2UU, and its legendary creature - human villain line shapes the whole deck around it. It cares about +1/+1 counters, so counter-doubling effects and creatures that grow on their own carry the deck. Built-in evasion means damage gets through reliably, so effects that scale that damage are worth more than extra bodies.
