Introduction

One of my favourite decks of all time was my Verdurous Counters. Partly because it represents my turning a corner as a player and stopped losing all the time and started winning. Now I'm adding my favourite pieces to this deck. Keep in mind, proliferation works with all counters (poison, loyalty,+1/+1, experience, etc...) so there are a lot of ways to tackle Atraxa.

Strategy

The strategy for this deck is pretty straight forward. Get enormous with counters and get ready to smash face. Once you are big enough to do significant damage, drop Tuskguard Captain, Herald of Secret Streams, Abzan Falconer, Winged Temple of Orazca, or Odric, Lunarch Marshal, point at an opponent and swing like Babe Ruth. Periodically, you can win with commander damage, which is always a fun incidental way to win.

This deck is weak to mass removal so it's wise to hold back some creatures in your hand.

Add Counters

Not all creatures will enter with +1/+1, so we need some ways to get them onto other creatures so we can proliferate them.

• Cathars' Crusade
