**WIP 8/28/24 **

Remaking my Atla Palani dino deck that I initially made on her release. While Gishath, Sun's Avatar and now Pantlaza, Sun-Favored are objectively better for dino tribal, I like the unique combo potential that Atla has. I havn't updated the deck in years and so much of the maybeboard is newer cards I'd like to try.

I love recommendations/suggestions for cuts and additions so feel free! The deck is currently hovering around a power level which I really like, and would like to keep it that way. For this deck I'm open to proxies and so budget is not a barrier, however I like the randomness of Atla's playstyle and so am avoiding tutors or top deck manipulation like Sensei's Divining Top.
