August Update: The Infection Shall Spread —Aug. 28, 2019
Whaddup yall? I've had some life stuff happen the past 4 months so I haven't been able to update a whole lot in the past 4 months, so here's the basic summary of what's going on with Thraximundar over here:
-
I'm back to going for more of a midrange type setup (at least that's what I Think I'm doing lol) instead of pure combo. That being said, I've still got a couple combos up my sleeve, in particular using Deathbringer Thoctar in conjunction with Mikaeus, the Unhallowed and a sac outlet to machine gun into a win. Also Thoctar automatically becomes a boardwipe tool with Death Baron, so there's that
-
I've invested into some Infect since I've got so much Proliferate in here, figured I'd try to use it to actually win some games :P
So what shall happen to the rest of the Zombo Combo that was in here? Well, I'm actually building a Varina, Lich Queen deck and that's where it's all going. I'm thinking some sort of Aristrocrats-style for it.
I take all that back actually. With proliferate you could put more counters on it making it pretty darn good... your spicy tech was too spicy for me. lmao

mfogle ayy thanks :D Yeah, Cornucopia is actually a real fun card in any deck w/ proliferate. I've been working on having a lot of my lands/mana rocks be able to get real big with counters and proliferate if you noticed :)

As far as proliferating goes, Thrummingbird can do some legwork in building you up, though it doesn't fall in your zombie theme, though The Scarab God could fix that, along with any other non-zombies like Viral Drake . And on that note, The Scorpion God could give you some solid draw and aid removal since you're already spreading -1/-1's with infect. Don't know if those fall too far out of theme for you (I appreciate thematic decks), but could be solid choices.

Sweet deck, love the phyrexians. I will say though, Astral Cornucopia is a pet peev of mine. If you cast it for 3 mana, its a Darksteel Ingot that's not indestructible. If you cast if for 9 mana, its an extremely expensive Gilded Lotus. Neither card is that expensive either. lol if the cost was XX, it'd be perfectly fine, but it just seems like a bad rate as is. Sorry for the rant, love the deck though.
