I played SKK twice this month, with the first version being a fair bit weaker than this one. This has a bit of a morph slant and an actual *gasp* infinite combo or two, but is otherwise nothing especially ridiculous.
I think if I was going to build SKK to try to be effective I'd add more mana dorks and more combos. SKK himself is really good at making your mana dorks into threats later on. 3/1s aren't brutal in EDH by any measure, but making 3-4 of them can lead to some really punishing come back turns. Especially with access to Into the web.
I should probably also be running death pits.
Also I'm really glad I bought a genesis. Such a low opportunity cost great grindy card.

June round up - Karlov
Karlov was super exciting when I first saw him spoiled, and I wasn't even playing commander back then!
The actual result of this token / lifegain deck was pretty strange. For one thing, it needs to lean a lot less on its white side and have access to way more black removal. For another, Karlov just can't be cast early. People are way too "onto him" and even when someone is playing far more powerful stuff they freak out and kill him.
But whatever. He's very powerful, at the least, and I'll probably play him again eventually, or at least put him into another deck.
