contents Kutasov-Schwimmer (KS) dualities involve a rank-$2$ field with a polynomial superpotential. We derive KS-like dualities via deconfinement, that is assuming only Seiberg-like dualities, which instead just involve fundamental matter. Our derivation is split into two main steps. The first step is the construction of two families of linear quivers with $p\!-\!1$ nodes that confine into a rank-$2$ chiral field with degree-$(p\!+\!1)$ superpotential. Such chiral field is an $U(N)$ adjoint in 3d and an $USp(2N)$ antisymmetric in 4d. In the second step we use these linear quivers to derive, via deconfinement, in a relatively straightforward fashion, two classes of KS-like dualities: the Kim-Park duality for $U(N)$ with adjoint in 3d and the Intriligator duality for $USp(2N)$ with antisymmetric in 4d. We also discuss the close relation of our 3d family of confining unitary quivers to the 4d $\mathcal{N}\!=\!2$ $D_p[SU(N)]$ SCFTs by circle compactification and various deformations.
