Glad to see you added Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus, the oil-slick art is wonderful.

For the famous Sword, my problem always was that the creature has to do combat damage to the player, so most of the time, my opponent will just block it to not result in a poison counter on everyone.

Concerning my opinion on +1+1 in the Atraxa's deck. I feel like it is a nice addition, but shouldn't go around it, since you want to focus on poison.

However, if you do want to add +1+1. My opinion is to add Brokers Ascendancy. My reasoning is that ALL creature will get a +1+1 (possibly 2 with proliferate) instead of one creature getting +2+2 (+3+3 once you proliferate). The downside is that the counter comes in at your END-step. It also boost your ''little'' creatures with infect such as Myr's to become much bigger and a threat to your opponent. (Also works great if you want to include tokens in the deck such as White Sun's Twilight or Phyrexian Swarmlord )

Hi Venum,

Thank you for the nice words, i'm glad you like my deck. Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus definitely pinged across my radar when he was first released, I even went so far as to get an oil slick copy of him as the price became more affordable. The problem was that I just couldn't find a slot for him in the deck. I'm flirting with the idea of swapping it in for the recent addition of Norn's Choirmaster - both are very similar cards with Tekuthal more synergy with the deck overall, but is not a proliferation source. The Choirmaster is a proliferation source, but requires the Commander to be in play - which is something I generally want. I don't know, the verdict is out on this one. Thoughts?

I'm happy you came back to update that deck, which is my favorite one of yours.

I've been wanting to ask about the reason why you're not including Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus for doubling the proliferate effect? If you do have Vorinclex or Innkeeper on the field, with the free proliferate of Atraxa, it would be 4 poison counter on end step.

I also like Defense of the Heart for cheating Blightsteel Colossus and Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider
