Main EDH deck that I've been modifying for years, started as a jumbled mess of good stuff, moved to combo when doing a lot of 1v1's and recently arrived at the pure counter and token route for the sake of not being a douche.

Learned over time to prefer signets over Mana Vault and Gilded Lotus in this case. Never wanted to take the effort to untap Mana Vault and Gilded Lotus is so punishable. These feel much better in Breya and mediocre in decks that have no artifact synergies. Small mana rocks feel much better here.

Threw out Ashnod's Altar as it goes infinite too easily and is hated by the playgroup. It's so good when not going infinite but it's just too degenerate.

No Triskelion to avoid the option to Tooth and Nail for that and Mikaeus, the Unhallowed. Walking Ballista sort of serves the same function but doesn't really form the two card combo. Also it's not 6 mana, so hell yeah.

Thinking about Pathbreaker Ibex but it's well known because of a friend's Maelstrom Wanderer deck, seems only great if it has haste, but will just immediately die in my playgroup.

Interested in adding Exploration back in but also have Burgeoning and I'm not sure which one to go with.
