Atraxa's Trifecta - Three Decks, One General

I've put this list of cards together in order to build three decks which all have a similar core but with unique win-cons and play styles. The core features cards that work with the differing play styles of the alternate builds. The different builds feature infect, token swarms, and pillow fort control. One thing to note is that the pillow fort sideboard will require more swaps from the core to be made to be effective. To get a better look at the lists you can find a description as well as a link to their own deck list in the tabs below. Thanks for checking out the deck, throw it a plus one if you can dig it.

I think the sweet spot is going to be 42 cards for the core and 23 cards in the respective sideboards with the 34 land. The pillow fort will drop the core down to 22 and have a 43 card side board. I'm looking at any and all suggestions and critiques on this concept. Any card suggestions are welcome, and any constructive criticism as well.

The Core

Chasm Skulker / Mycoloth / Elenda, the Dusk Rose / Hangarback Walker / Pentavus / Ghave, Guru of Spores / Champion of Lambholt / Herald of Secret Streams / Mikaeus, the Lunarch / Corpsejack Menace

Praetors' Pillow Fort

The Pillow Fort will pull 19 cards from the core to allow for a Voltron Control build to be put in its place. These cards add to the ability of the deck to create creature tokens and pump out additional +1/+1 counters. With the voltron style pillow fort, control spells, enchantment pumps and protective artifacts will take their place. The following cards will be removed:

Bred for the Hunt / Cathars' Crusade / Champion of Lambholt / Chasm Skulker / Corpsejack Menace / Crystalline Crawler / Doubling Season / Eldrazi Monument / Elenda, the Dusk Rose / Followed Footsteps / Fuel for the Cause / Ghave, Guru of Spores / Hangarback Walker / Herald of Secret Streams / Inexorable Tide / Inspiring Call / Mikaeus, the Lunarch / Mycoloth / Pentavus / Gavony Township
