Atraxa variant focused on Stax with a strong Superfriends subtheme.

Runs 10 Fetches and 4 lands with Cycling (2) and 1 with Basic Landcycling to combo with Crucible of Worlds and Splendid Reclamation. Other key ramp pieces include 7 CMC 2 rocks (6 signets, and Everflowing Chalice), and 3 at CMC 3 (Astral Cornucopia, Chromatic Lantern, and Darksteel Ingot), Mana Crypt and Sol Ring

General STAX package, powered by Academy Rector working with Omniscience to avoid paying for anything despite a board lockdown from cards like tanglewire, Winter Orb. I'm thinking that Smokestack might be a sufficient sac outlet for the Rector, but I might need to use something else to dodge exile removal.

An unconventional combo for STAX is Decree of Silence with Hex Parasite to just lock the other players out of their spells.

Right now, my biggest concern is a Merciless Eviction, hitting me for the value of the deck, but I'm not sure there's enough space to run sufficient counterspells for a reactive defense... hopefully I can lock a W/B player out of 6 mana...

At any rate, the meta this will be piloted in is fairly variable. The most competitive decks include Yisan, the Wanderer Bard Stax, Mishra, Artificer Prodigy Stax, Maelstrom Wanderer goodstuff/combo, and Bruna, Light of Alabaster Voltron. Lots of other good decks, but those are some of the heavy hitters.
