Tjbwoody yeah, just having a Atraxa as a flying, vigilant, deathtouching blocker really helps me to protect my PWs better. I've only been testing it for a couple of games now, but already I can tell the games will play out much differently. I'm expecting to drop my board wipe count by a couple at least.

How do you feel about the "Oath of" Cycle? Oath of Ajani, Oath of Nissa, Oath of Jace, Oath of Chandra, Oath of Gideon seem like they cold be pretty good in the deck. Listed in order of preference

Force_of_Willb Those oaths don't have nearly the kind of impact one would want in a deck like this when you evaluate those against any potential card you might want to take out.
I can say that the Oath of Ajani is a little tempting because it's a good way to start the counters on Atraxa, so I may try that one out. But my initial evaluation on that was that it was a mana rock that only benefited my planeswalkers.

Might wanna consider Pir, Imaginative Rascal for extra loyalty counter production. Amazing in atraxa anyhow.

Venser, the Sojourner doesn't look too good. Don't see any etb, and you don't plan on attacking. The ultimate is fine, but you're probably already winning if you get there.

zebeg: Venser can be used to blink out other walkers to recharge their loyalty counters. Least that’s how I use him in my walker deck.

Progenitus is a must. Fist of Suns is good even though it does the same thing as your commander because it gives your opponents two things to target.

chromiumthemutable, This deck used to be helmed by Progenitus and I know from experience that he’s not amazing all by himself. Doing 10 points of damage to one opponent at a time isn’t the most effective way for the deck to win. My creature combat strategy is minor and based on tokens while taking extra turns. The #1 way I win is through excessive or infinite planeswalker activations that deal damage.

It seems a shame that a lot of the planeswalkers in this deck cost 5 or less mana so you can't get as good of bonuses off of jodah

This deck needs Captain Sisay... I am currently building a 5 color planeswalker deck aswell...
And I feel that Captain Sisay is just too good not to include...
I am running Ramos as my commander and a few more Proliferate cards other than just atraxa...
Also new commander staples for super friends may be coming out with War of the Spark...

SofaPotato, I already have Captain Sisay in the list. It's pretty fantastic.

wideline1414 that card doesn’t have enough utility. It adds one additional counter per time I can tap it. Without some other card to synergize with it, that’s only going to work once per turn after I attack.

War of the Spark just came out. Thinking of adding the new walkers from there into here?

JohnMichaelBushman Yeah, I have, but it just felt like most of the new Planeswalkers didn't fit in with this deck's style of play. This deck wants to create blockers and generate card advantage and mana. Lots of the new PWs want to have some kind of a staxy static ability and needed didn't have fun splashy ultimates. I was actually tempted to make a second Superfriends deck.

Sweet build! I'd recommend Honor-Worn Shaku. It turns planeswalkers into colorless mana-dorks, which is neat.

Given the curve of this deck, could I suggest that Jodah, Archmage Eternal might not be the ideal commander here?
Child of Alara can occasionally serve as a board wipe, or Sisay, Weatherlight Captain can tutor things up. One of those might be a better option.

Ignite the Beacon seems too good to ignore in my opinion.

This deck is similar to my super friends deck, but I recently changed my commander to Reaper King. And I'm using scarecrows as my mana rocks and spot destruction. That way I can run a few creatures and not to have to run so many wipes, and it helps to protect my walkers as well.
