Experimenting with a toolbox stax build, working towards a hard lockdown that generates a win off the utility from Atraxa or her keyword soup, rather than via Boonweaver combo, infect, or superfriends.

Despite the hype, I don't think Deepglow Skate is worth it

I really like the cards in the sideboard, but I'm not sure if they are worth cutting anything from the mainboard

For a non-budget version, just add the sideboard lands for the not-sideboard lands and throw in the standard wishlist cards (such as Imperial Seal, Grim Tutor, etc)
