Atraxa proliferates all kinds of counters

Commander / EDH

NoMercy89


Maybeboard


Finally, there's a commander who cares about counters and brings adds blue to the abzan colors. I immediately decided to redo my Anafenza, the Foremost deck to become even more outlasty.

So, the idea is to do kind of a control game while your creatures grow absurdly big, then drop a surpise Abzan Falconer or Tuskguard Captain and swing for the win.

Some details:

In the ramp section, I tried to abuse atraxa's proliferation as much as possible. Everflowing Chalice, Astral Cornucopia, cristalline crawler and Gyre Sage should all be able to produce huge amounts of mana. My focus there is not so much to get your commander out as quickly as possible, but to be able to really make use of all the carddraw you should get lategame.

Same goes for some of the lands. Gemstone Mine is simply brilliant in this deck and the depletion lands Hickory Woodlot, Peat Bog, Remote Farm and Saprazzan Skerry should finally be playable, too.

Running six fetchlands is kind of costly unfortunately, but with the six shocklands you are able to find any color with any fetchland. Seems worth it in a four color deck.

Well. The deck isn't put together entirely yet, so I hope I can get some suggestions from you guys! All the cards already in the maybeboard seem very, very good to me, I just can't figure out what to replace.

Cheers and happy proliferation!
