Out: Hindervines, Heaven / Earth, High Sentinels of Arashin, Wood Elves, Together Forever, Triskelion, Semester's End
In: Boon-Bringer Valkyrie, Agitator Ant, Evolution Sage, Orzhov Advokist, Evolutionary Escalation, Swiftfoot Boots, Botanical Brawler
A larger update in an effort to build counters. Taking out superfluous or higher value one shot effects for things that can provide counters regularly. This also lowered my curve ever so slightly.

Stomp my Sacc
1 year ago
Having built a similar, but different end-result deck myself, I can appreciate and understand the struggle. You're on the right track, sorting cards into sac fodder and sac engines. I also had a third category, for sac profits, that rewards you for boardwide sacrifices, exactly like your commander is doing.
For renewable, repeatable sacrifices: There's an infinite zombie fodder generator in Gravecrawler and Carrion Feeder. You can also use Jadar, Ghoulcaller of Nephalia to get a daily zombie to toss. Grafted Wargear is a fun way to repeatedly sacrifice, preferably after attacking. Witch's Oven also lets you sacrifice after creatures aren't useful anymore. Priest of Forgotten Gods is pricey but rewards you for having lots of sacrifices.
As for single use tactics, Bone Splinters is a good spell. Shriekmaw sacrifices itself. Ordeal of Erebos would do well here as well, as it sacrifices itself after building, and would sac early due to the global counters.
Lastly, Hindervines would do great to block all combat damage once your creatures get even a single +1/+1 counter.
Best of luck!

Aren't You Getting a Little Briared?

More blockers huh? In that case, maybe consider Trestle Troll and Tukatongue Thallid. Some spells that serve as blockers/summoners would be Fists of Ironwood and Hindervines.

Lorge Cat Daddy (Ajani)
4 years ago
I love a player who goes for the flavor win, but I also feel like you could do more to really focus the mechanical identity of your deck.
Cats are associated strongly with equipment, which Ajani plays into with +1/+1 counters, which are also good for beefing up one's creatures. The issue with that is you essentially have 54 deck slots to split between creatures, equipment, ramp, removal, and card draw.
You could also just do tribal. Though cats do not have many lords (the only one you don't have is Regal Caracal), general tribal cards such as Herald's Horn, Adaptive Automaton, Shared Animosity, the Kindred cycle (Kindred Boon, Kindred Summons, and Kindred Charge), Metallic Mimic, Icon of Ancestry, Door of Destinies, Steely Resolve, Obelisk of Urd, or Vanquisher's Banner could serve you well.
You could go more towards Ajani's +1 counter theme, but most of the payoffs for that are non-cat. That said, there are some good noncreature options: Curse of Stalked Prey, Hardened Scales, Doubling Season, Curse of Predation, Hindervines, Inspiring Call, and Mayael's Aria and other power-related payoffs.

I'd toss Fist of Suns for Astral Cornucopia and / or Everflowing Chalice - better fits, and they interact with prolifferate better.
Increasing Savagery is a very timmy spell, might want something with more versitility in here instead, like Decree of Savagery for the cycleing, or Hindervines since it doesn't stop your deck.
Inspiring Call is also a must for this deck - dodges a wrath, and gives card draw.
other kick-knack spells to consider: Abzan Charm , Bant Charm , Bioshift , Dromar's Charm , Jund Charm , Steady Progress , Temper , Test of Faith , Trap Essence , Unbreakable Formation , Contentious Plan , Volt Charge

Atraxa Precon- Budget improvements (Need Help)
5 years ago
Hey there, I have +1/+1 counters-themed Atraxa deck as well, and I don't like to expensive cards for deckbuilding, so I might have some suggestions for you.
Firstly, Stubborn Denial is excellent in EDH.
You might like one or more of the following: Ring of Kalonia, Ring of Xathrid, Ring of Evos Isle, Ring of Thune.
Currently Thrummingbird just looks like removal-bait. It's too small to last long, so nobody will ever let it hit them most of the time. You'd need to add at least 7 or so card like Rogue's Passage to make it a reliable effect. Or buff up the bird in some way. This is why I went with a voltron strategy for my version. Anyway, long story short, I'd swap it out for Chromatic Lantern.
Other counters-synergy cards: Elite Scaleguard, Hindervines, Novijen Sages, Crowned Ceratok.
I think you should swap the three-color ETB-tapped lands for either the remaining Vivid lands.
Hope that helps! Enjoy Atraxing things. =)

Atraxa +1/+1 counters for critters
5 years ago
Okay so just going through my list here, I can split it into a couple lists: counter producers, counter enhancers, and counter synergies.
Counter producers give +1/+1 counters to things. Among them are Anafenza, the Foremost, Bloodtracker, Chasm Skulker, Daghatar the Adamant, Dragonscale General, Drana, Liberator of Malakir, Hangarback Walker, Heroes' Bane, Managorger Hydra, Mikaeus, the Lunarch, Prime Speaker Zegana, Toothy, Imaginary Friend Citadel Siege, Curse of Predation, Ajani, Adversary of Tyrants, Cathars' Crusade, Echoes of the Kin Tree, and finally, arguably the best of this group, Ajani, Mentor of Heroes.
Counter enhancers increase the counters placed on things: Gilder Bairn, Pir, Imaginative Rascal, Vorel of the Hull Clade, Winding Constrictor, Doubling Season, Hardened Scales, Primal Vigor, and Solidarity of Heroes.
Finally, counter synergies, such as Abzan Battle Priest, Armorcraft Judge, Battlefront Krushok, Cenn's Tactician, Fathom Mage, Zameck Guildmage, Hindervines, Inspiring Call, and Bred for the Hunt.
Boy oh boy do I hope that's enough to get ya started. There you go.
