Sideboard


Atraxa Superfriends EDH. Pillowfort, get your walkers out, emblem up and win. Lots of tutors to find doubling season to get the walkers ultimate asap. Throw in a copy enchantment to pillowfort harder or to even get additional loyalty counters when the walkers enter.

Wins against Trostani, Karlov, another Atraxa, Marrow-Gnawer, Selenia dark angel, Meren, Prossh and Ayli. Losses on record are from another Atraxa superfriends deck where it was a race to ultimate a planeswalker and my opponent got the ultimate on Venser twice. These games were in both a multiplayer format and a one v one format. In all cases this deck was an absolute powerhouse. Each player knew what I was running and in the early game they were able to keep me down but that was also in part due to me playing very little and holding back. Once this deck got going with one or two walkers a turn combined with the ability to attack only once or not at all, it was almost a sure thing that I was going to get an ultimate off and sure enough thats exactly what happened. It should be noted that tutors were not just done for Doubling Season but also for Maze of Ith . Once I had Maze of Ith and either Dueling Grounds or Silent Arbiter it was a nightmare for my opponents to try and deal with my walkers. Noticeable hurts came from In Garruk's Wake but those were few and far between and didn't hurt me in the long run. Overall the pillowfort aspect played an amazing roll and if both Silent Arbiter and Dueling Grounds were taken out of play I still had Peacekeeper and Sphere of Safety to discourage attacks. So far this deck is 12-2 and my playgroup already has made reservations about me playing it (much like my Zur the Enchanter deck. Also of good note, within those 8 games, I played my my commander only 5 times (2 in one game and the other 3 in 3 separate games).

Updates Add

Put cards from my sideboard into the main deck. Removed Exploration, Archangel of Tithes, Wall of Reverence, Necropotence, and Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver. Added in Ajani Steadfast, Tezzeret the Seeker, Peacekeeper, Gilder Bairn, and Damnation but this can be substituted for any of the other board wipes. Also made a change to the land base to help supplement the overall proliferate theme by adding in all the storage lands by removing the majority of basics as I have no way to search for them apart from Tempt with Discovery which is not meant to find basics as is. Added was Bottomless Vault, Calciform Pools, Dreadship Reef, Fountain of Cho, Hollow Trees, Icatian Store, Rushwood Grove, Saltcrusted steepe, Sand Silos, Saprazzan Cove, and Subterranean Hangar. Removed was 2x Swamp, 3x Forest, 2x Island, 2x Plains, Terramorphic Expanse, and Evolving Wilds
