UltimateRoxas40,

I'm still waiting for my copy of Phyrexian Censor to arrive in the mail, but I feel like this card is a great inclusion in the deck that only now i've finally been able to be certain about after finally getting out of the house and playing a few games. It definitely fits thematically, and will absolutely be trouble if Jin-Gitaxias, Progress Tyrant is on the battlefield beside it. Now opponents will have to jump through an additional hoop when they decide to cast a spell to pitch to Jin's counter ability and attempt to cast what they really want to cast. Wow, I almost feel bad for my future opponents when they face that wonderful synergy. Hah, filthy heretics. Thanks again for the suggestion, I'm definitely going to list that synergy as one of the deck's core combos.

Suggestions:

1. Enchantments + Phyrexian Theme Phyrexian Censor Phyrexian Awakening

2. More Infect + Toxic Support (& more Phyrexians) Priests of Norn Lost Leonin Shriek Raptor Tine Shrike

3. Thematic Ramp Options Glistening Sphere Defiler of Faith

4. Cards that should just be in this deck because they're good Smothering Tithe Mondrak, Glory Dominus Akroma's Will

Mortlocke I'm more interested in Brimaz, Blight of Oreskos's Proliferate ability, just to drive the poison home more quickly. But I get not wanted to add another element to the deck haha. Funny enough, I was actually going to swap out Ichorclaw Myr and put in Phyrexian Censor too haha. Ichorclaw Myr never did a lot for me, and having something to slow my opponents down just a little bit while I Poison them or build up my +1/+1 counters seems pretty good. I just need to get a copy of it first.

UltimateRoxas40 thanks for stopping by. I too wish MOM had more Toxic creatures for us to use - but overall the set decided to go in a very different direction with Incubate as the Phyrexia specific mechanic. As neat as it is (basically a strictly better Amass) I can't get behind adding it as adding in yet another sub-theme would make the deck sub-optimal overall. Phyrexian Censor definitely gives me pause. My only wish is that it had Toxic 1 then I'd toss it in for Ichorclaw Myr. I think i'm going to get a copy of it just in case I feel like experimenting with it. Worst case scenario it'll find a home in my soon to be upgraded Corrupting Influence precon. Thanks for swinging by, have you made any updates to your Atraxa build? I'm going to check your deck page in a few.

Massacar thank you for the nice words! I honestly have no idea if anyone actually likes any of my CSS customization (well besides me lol). I really appreciate it!

Mortlocke Have you thought about adding any of the new cards from March of the Machines? I wish they gave us more Toxic cards to play with. I'm kinda drawn towards Brimaz, Blight of Oreskos, since it gives us Phyrexian creatures through Incubate that could act as blockers/deterrents from attacking us, since when the tokens die (or any other Phyrexian creature), we can proliferate at the end of each turn (presumably they are already Poisoned haha).

Phyrexian Censor also seems like a good fit for your deck, since you've got that Stax-y subtheme. It could help slow down the game and let the Poison proliferate away.
