SaberTech on Atraxa Stax

7 months ago

I think that this deck list is still a bit unfocused. It is basically saying that it wants to stall things out and win with poison counters, and it has the Magistrate's Scepter + Coretapper + Atraxa, Praetors' Voice combo for infinite turns, but there are a number of cards included that will only do synergistic things some of the time that will water down your meaningful draws.

Some cards to consider to increase your potential to kill with poison counters include Evolution Sage, Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus, Inexorable Tide, and Phyresis Outbreak. I'm also kind of partial to Viral Drake. Tekuthal can act as an alternative to Coretapper for your Magistrate's Scepter combo.

I think that a lot of your STAX stuff will often feel lackluster since you aren't running any support to help you break parity on them. To get the most out of Winter Orb and Stasis it helps to have cards such as Nature's Will or Sword of Feast and Famine. There are also cards that tap down permanents/artifacts that you can use to tap down the Orbs at the end of your opponent's turn so that you can untap all your lands on your turn.

Cards that drain life like Scheming Aspirant and Bloodchief Ascension probably aren't worth it if you are trying to kill with poison counters. The life gain that you get off them is also pretty negligible. Although, if you had Mindcrank to combo with the Ascension it could function as a backup win condition.

You don't actually run that many cards that put counters on themselves or other cards you control, so Power Conduit and Soul Diviner look pretty lackluster on the basis of them not likely being consistent value when you draw into them.

I don't know what your commander meta is like, but in general there isn't a lot of targeted land destruction in casual games. Tomik, Distinguished Advokist will rarely be of any worth in most casual groups unless you regularly play against someone who uses cards like Crucible of Worlds to net value off of fetch lands and utility lands.

You have very few artifacts that send themselves to the graveyard. I think there is an argument to be made that you will rarely get much value out of Glissa, the Traitor's ability, even taking into consideration the possibility of getting back artifacts that opponents destroy. Still a decent blocker I guess. A more general effect like Eternal Witness in that slot may provide more consistent value though.

Those are just a few suggestions. I could think of more once I have a better idea of how you are looking to develop the deck further.

Necrosis24 on Basics matter theme - Mono …

Personally I'd run a token generator or blink cmdr like Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward (with your choice of background) as I like the idea of using Settle the Wreckage as a ramp spell and I think it works well with him. Basri Ket and Launch the Fleet are similar effects as Abdel.

You could also use Swords to Plowshares as a Rampant Growth.

Expedition Map to get Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth + Kormus Bell to turn your plains into creatures which you can now flicker more easily as well and benefit on etbs.

Tomik, Distinguished Advokist is worth considering to add to the deck if you go the Kormus Bell route as your land creatures basically have hexproof now.

Additionally you could use cards like Zuran Orb or Troubled Healer in combination with Faith's Reward/Second Sunrise/Planar Birth for extra landfall triggers. If you are running the Kormus Bell combo you could use creature sac-outlets like Altar of Dementia or Phyrexian Altar. But if the sac outlets don't play into the rest of the deck you might be better of running Oswald Fiddlebender as your cmdr to ensure you get the right combination of artifacts.

Zuran Orb also pairs well with Aetherflux Reservoir.

A roundabout and rather inefficient lands-matter removal would be Soul Sculptor + Aura Fracture.

Also can't go wrong with Sun Titan + fetch lands (i.e. Fabled Passage). If you go the flicker route you can get some great value out of this. Alternatively Sevinne's Reclamation/Crucible of Worlds also work well with fetch-lands and landfall

TLDR: Landfall-Flicker or Landfall-Recursion or combination of both.

For Tomik, Distinguished Advokist:

Chief Enforcer Bilagru

Legendary Creature - Giant Soldier

: Target nonland permanent becomes a Plains land until end of turn (It loses its other types).

"Bilagru will come for you."

8/7


The flavor being that he flattens anything and everything.

I think it would be a pretty bad commander as it's only temporary removal or weird, weak protection, but with Tomik, he's at least granting hexproof/shroud.

I'd like to see a mouse in Kamigawa

Ral, Stormsire

Legendary Planeswalker - Ral

Partners with Tomik, Distinguished Advokist

Instant and sorcery spells your opponents control may only be cast from their hands.

+2 Target opponent mills 3. Ral deals damage to them equal to the number of lands put into their graveyard in this way.

-X You may cast target instant or sorcery from any graveyard with mana value X without paying its mana cost. If you do, copy that spell. You may choose new targets.

-10 Until the beginning of your next upkeep, copy the next instant or sorcery you cast five times. You may choose new targets.

3


Make a Planeswalker who crafts armies. They should be able to make at minimum two distinctly different types of creature tokens, though preferably all three abilities make a different creature token that each serve a different purpose. For example, 1/1 soldiers and 4/4 angels. But what they make and how they make it are entirely up to you.

Could even be token copies of other creatures you control, or even of what your opponent controls.

Be creative and really push it.

Niv-Mizzet, Oracle of Wishes

Legendary Creature - Dragon Wizard Beast

Flying, Trample, Haste

Whenever you cast a creature spell, reveal the top card of your library until you reveal a non-creature, non-land card. Deal damage to any target equal to the Converted Mana Cost of that spell.

"I know not what brought him here, only that he seems to have the entire Triome wrapped around his claw; at his behest, the wilds, the beasts, the very world changes to his will."

5/5

Halana, Kessig Ranger and Alena, Kessig Trapper are married.

Ral, Izzet Viceroy and Tomik, Distinguished Advokist are in a relationship - in the two cards linked, you can even see that Ral is carrying a piece of Tomik’s white cloth and Tomik a piece of Ral’s red cloth to indicate their connection.

Oviya Pashiri, Sage Lifecrafter’s character blurb mentions how her wife died.

This deck list isn't simply geared for a sprint for the win so there are questionable inclusions if that is what one is aiming for. Notably, I think the following can be replaced for stax pieces or CEDH staples.

  • 1. Pramikon, Sky Rampart - This card is a convenient 3-colour legendary that simply buys time. In a CEDH game, one is unlikely to simply die from combat damage.
  • 2. Tomik, Distinguished Advokist - This 2CMC 1colour legendary is a limited stax card and used for interaction against targeted land destruction - unlikely to be common interaction.
  • 3. Aminatou, the Fateshifter - This card is a convenient 3-colour legendary that is value focused. My decklist no longer runs a superfriends combo for the win so this is very "extra". I'm using the Emiel-Derevi-Geier-Bow combo which can win at instant speed.
  • 4. Shalai, Voice of Plenty - This 4CMC 1-colour legendary is more a simple "nope" card for targeted removal.
  • 5. Gerrard, Weatherlight Hero - This 4CMC 2-colour legendary is "cute" interaction against board wipes as it gets around staples like Toxic Deluge as the result is also asymmetrical since your board remains intact.
