Great list! i'm making one of my own and got some ideas. But i have few suggestions:-Ghostly Prison can be replaced with Norn's Annex it's more expensive, but protects your planeswalkers as well.-Why not put Ajani Steadfast it's a great superfriends planeswalker with it's straight synergy and protection.-How about The Chain Veil?

Chain Veil seems like a win more card IMO, but I suppose there isn't another reason to not include it. And I see now how Ghostly Prison is ineffective, kind of a "derrr" moment on my part lol.Thanks for the suggestions!

Deepglow Skate, Doubling Season? Or are those "win more" cards?

Also maybe storage lands Calciform Pools, Dreadship Reef, Saltcrusted Steppe. In my version I'm running basics and mana batteries like Druids' Repository, Gemstone Array, Pentad Prism.

Deepglow Skate is a good option, as for Doubling Season I'm trying not to dish out that much for one card. but its a good option as well. it just fits the theme especially with token generating. The storage lands could be a good addition as well, something I'll try to work in! may replace the scry lands with them.

I don't know if you know this but Doubling Season makes planeswalkers come into play with double loyalty counters, so it's really good. only thing against it is that it's 50$

I didn't realize that it automatically gave them double loyalty! Now that's something I may have to include!

Hmmm...I seem to have misplaced it...Good call!

You might want to try Azor's Elocutors for the instant win

Garruk, Apex Predator seems strong in here. So does Gideon, Ally of Zendikar.

I just got atraxa. Super pumped to build around it,

What do you think about Black Sun's Zenith you can Zenith for 1 giving all creatures -1-1 counter and then proliferate to slowly kill off creatures. Your creatures which should have +1+1 counters will cancel out the -1-1 counters leaving your creatures safe.

I am also currently working on an Atraxa deck. It is not up on tapped out just yet. I am curious have you guys run into the problem of getting your stuff killed pretty much as soon as it comes out. what preventive measures have you been using to make sure Atraxa does not instantly die? I was thinking about adding in Privileged Position

December 12, 2016 1:35 a.m.

Emarean you could run Asceticism so they cannot directly target and you can also regenerate creatures with it. you can hold up protection if you in the form of spells want but unfortunately there are a ton of wrath effects in commander that you can't always save creatures from (such as Perilous Vault)

Yeah i think running Asceticism might be a good idea. what do you think about Privileged Position? I am going to add a few more walkers too if i have them lying around.

December 12, 2016 6:22 p.m.

I like that as well, just a shame that there isn't much that can be added to make Privileged Position Hexproof as well.

What is nice about Asceticism is that you can revive a vital creature with it, and Privileged Position cannot do that. But position protects everything else, including creatures. Running both would probably be good, I don't see why it wouldn't since you have the colors for both.

By the way I also think Kiora, the Crashing Wave is infinitely better than master of depths, but that's just me.

If you run Privileged Position, consider running Sterling Grove as well. They work great together! This is my Atraxa list, maybe you can pull some ideas from it. A Very Atraxative Superfriends Deck

I think Cathars' Crusade is a must-have if you play with creatures. Big effect with Hooded Hydra and Avenger of Zendikar

Cathars' Crusade is definitely a good inclusion with the creatures I run. I'd try Privileged Position and Sterling Grove just have to try and find copies of them. Thanks for the suggestions!

I think you should run Inkmoth Nexus ! It can easily kill your opponent by himself :P

DroThaShow says... #22

That would be a good add! I dont know why I didnt think of it!

Mugno says... #23

Hi again, i think you should run Gavony Township too! Also, why do you use Steady Progress instead of Tezzeret's Gambit?

April 2, 2017 6:43 a.m.

Mugno probably because of instant speed. That's my guess, anyways.

April 2, 2017 8:51 a.m.

DroThaShow says... #25

That's pretty much the reason, Instant speed
