As soon as I saw Atraxa Spoiled I knew I had to make an infect control deck around her. The story line of yawgmoth is in my opinion the best, and to see remnants of that story in the form of the praetors makes me very very excited.

This deck aims to end players very quickly by protecting your infect creatures and picking up early hits on players, but can also play a longer game with just pinging players for one infect a turn or just with proliferate to eventually end everyone by making them the perfect being or them raging out of the game because "infect is so unfair in EDH, I'm trying to infinite combo, you can't be faster than me that's broken" (as you can tell I am salty about people who cry about infect in EDH).

You have lots of counters and creature protection as well as removal for problem permanents that may come up or just to keep you alive. The planeswalkers in the deck are there to help my little infecters get big and strong, it just so happens that Atraxa works with them too (Who knew?!). I also have pretty much all the proliferate cards in this deck (which is probably too many but then again I made this deck in an hour on Untap) that help you win the game if the board is locked down.

This deck is by no means polished and by playing something like this you will get hated out of the game a lot of the time, but Infect is the best mechanic that should never exist again, so why not play it anyway.

Any help streamlining or improving the deck would be greatly appreciated.
