Win-Cons for Counters
Commander Deck Help forum
Posted on March 2, 2021, 11:33 a.m. by luhfreiheit
Hello! I am a casual commander player and have been using an Atraxa +1/+1 counters deck since I started playing magic (a few months ago) and I am looking for tips on win-cons for this deck: CurrentAtraxa Counters
Currently, other than smashing my opponents with commander damage or big creatures, I only have Simic Ascendancy , but I also plan on getting Darksteel Reactor and maybe Azor's Elocutors soon
I am not looking to turn the deck into infect/poison or superfriends, I would love to keep it as +1/+1, as my playgroup is very chill. Also, as I am a casual player, I don't wanna invest more than 10 dollars in a single card.
It would be great if anyone had some tips! Thank you in advance!

Planeswalkers tend to be go-to wincons for proliferate decks, but this seems more tuned around specifically +1/+1 and creature aggression, so I'd probably recommend something built more towards that. Anything Infect could do the job, Triumph of the Hordes can turn a good boardstate into a winning swing, and if it falls through, even just a few poison counters on each opponent turns into a ticking clock with proliferate effects.
Simic Ascendancy is a good fit and a good choice for this, but without a way to ensure you can get it consistently, you're second best choice is to just include a few more options. Darksteel Reactor would make a good backup, but a handful of tutor effects (depending on your budget) can help you get your wincons when you need them more consistently.

Etched Oracle could do great things in a deck like this
