Upgrading to Marchesa Stax

Commander / EDH*

Scrib.Nibbler


Alright, I've built this deck. But my groups power level has risen by quite a bit recently, so I'm looking into upgrading this deck. I've looked at other Queen Marchesa Stax deck lists online for inspiration, and I've listed cards that I have been interested in adding.

Ideas--I've thought about going extremely oppressive with cards like Winter Orb, Torpor Orb, Blood Moon, and Armageddon. I own a copy of Linvala, Keeper of Silence.

Rest in Peace would be good against my friend's resurrection deck, combined with Helm of Obedience is a win con.

Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth, Kormus Bell, and something like Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite or Linvala, Keeper of Silence. Turn all lands into Swamps, all Swamps into 1/1 creatures, which can either die to Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite's -2/-2 to all opponents' creatures or are unable to tap for mana as an activated ability due to Linvala, Keeper of Silence. Id wait on Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite to be reprinted in the upcoming Iconic Masters.

Karmic Guide and Reveillark seem a decent combo. Paired with Goblin Bombardment for infinite damage and Ashnod's Altar for infinite colorless mana, able to be pumped into Exsanguinate and Debt to the Deathless.

Any and all advice is welcome.

I've updated the deck. It has changed a lot, and I'm getting used to the shift in playstyles. If anyone has any recommendations for the stax theme, I'd love to hear them.
