Secure the Scene and Reduce to Memory are really bad cards. I know you intentionally didn't put planeswalkers in the deck, but Kaya the Inexorable is just a better Secure the Scene. I'd replace Reduce to Memory with Vanishing Verse. If you are curious about the rest of the removal suite that I use in my Esper Control deck, here's the link: Value / Grindy - Nevinyrral Esper Control

Hey DawnsRayofLight,

I appreciate the comment and the suggestions, definitely interested in a couple. Some of them are too high of a CMC though. In my playgroup games are over by turn 7 or earlier so I have to very careful with my CMC or the games over before I'm even stabilized.

I was running fewer lands in a previous version but I was having issues with being mana starved. I boosted the lands and ramp in the deck and am currently playtesting it. I have flooded out a little but not too bad. I agree though, might be able to cut a couple lands. Just trying to figure out how many.

Really digging Kaya the Inexorable and Kaya, Ghost Assassin, going to have to try to find a way to fit them in. Honestly none of your suggestions are bad, just not sure how to fit them all haha, going to have to pick and choose.

I'll be checking out your list after work today!

Thanks again!

As a fellow Atraxa player, I can offer some suggestions if it helps!

38 Lands may be a bit much, you don't want to get flooded. Generally, I am happy when I hit 7 lands on field. and 34 has been enough to make that happen more or less consistently I will attach my list to the bottom, that land base has been extremely consistent in casting a T3-4 Atraxa.

Some suggested adds:

Luminarch Ascension: funny with Atraxa and a good token generator

As Foretold: cast free spells

Contagion Engine: speeds up walkers

Toxrill, the Corrosive: another wipe

Sword of Truth and Justice for Atraxa beatdown

Walkers I like, I do not always run them for their ultimate but their control value:

Kaya the Inexorable: helps with keeping Atraxa recurring and a good removal outlet

Kaya, Ghost Assassin: I was surprised out how good she is in my testing, super annoying to play against

Tezzeret, Artifice Master: His ultimate is super fun and he makes tokens and draws

Elspeth, Sun's Champion: tons of tokens and a board wipe.

Liliana Vess: search

List: Atraxa's Best Friends (why can't she be BUWR?)

Weird. I'll re-comment.

I was wondering why not Brutal Cathar  ^Flip over Gelatinous Cube? Also I'd recomment Agadeem's Awakening  ^Flip could swap a swamp out for 2 or something. I find Vanishing Verse really useful main or side boarded, aswell as Divine Smite sideboard for facing black decks. Before Liesa, Forgotten Archangel I used Kaya the Inexorable and I still think shes good. Im running 2 liesa, 1 kaya. I also like to use a Lolth, Spider Queen or two just because she's good. How well does Dungeon Crawler fare? I remember cutting mine for the Yuan-Ti Malison. I'd also recommend maining or siding a couple Soul Shatter.

instead of Gelatinous Cube why not Brutal Cathar  ^Flip ? Also i think Vanishing Verse is really good, atleast a sideboard. I run a similar deck, but include Yuan-Ti Malison mainboard and use Lolth, Spider Queen as well as Kaya the Inexorable who has helps creatures come back like Liesa, Forgotten Archangel. How well does Dungeon Crawler fare? I remember cutting it

I'm playing a game right now where I have Gerrard, Weatherlight Hero and Kaya the Inexorable on the battlefield, and I'm wondering how Kaya's +1 and Gerrard's death trigger would interact. I'm guessing that the trigger from Kaya would resolve before Gerrard can exile himself, and therefore he would not return anything to the battlefield. (But I'm really hoping I'm wrong!)

Hi heinrichgraum, how would you fit Kaya the Inexorable into your current deck?

Any thoughts on adding Kor Haven or Norn's Annex for redundencies to Maze of Ith and Sphere of Safety

Hello! DemMeowsephs, Thank you for your suggestions, they are really nice and most of the cards are creatures, I was struggling with that part of the deck so i really appreciate it. They will reduce the average CMC of the deck for sure.

Phyrexian Altar is kinda expensive for me now but maybe in the long run I get it.

What creatures do you think, should leave the deck? I am newbie and kinda lost sometimes. Also what do you think about the Planeswalkers and the lands? Maybe Kaya the Inexorable its a nice option for playing my graveyard too, or it isn't?

Thank you again, I will have a look to your decks!
