Here's another little stax deck I'm messing with. These colors are pretty fun to play in this deck type. Xira is less threatening than say Shattergang or Prosh. And her card draw is a nice thing to have on a stick.

Lots of Basic Lands to survive an early Ruination if necessary.

The core of the build can be tributed to my friend RT. I've changed a few things of course.
