Superfriends and stax

Artifacts Show

Astral Cornucopia : Mediocre mana rock on it's own but with Atraxa proliferating it can quickly give us insane ramp.

Fellwar Stone and many of the signets/talismans are run as well. I prefer to have a mix of both as having talismans to tap signets can be essential if some of our stax pieces are in play.

Cursed Totem :This will stall and generally disrupt opponents.

Grafdigger's Cage : an excellent piece of graveyard hate that also stops things like Yisan, the Wanderer Bard .

Winter Orb , Static Orb , Tangle Wire : These are our key artifact stax pieces. Be sure that we will be gaining the most advantage when playing them. If an opponent is has a Seedborn Muse , Estrid, the Masked , etc. they can almost certainly outpace us.

Sword of Feast and Famine : This equipped to Atraxa is insane. It allows us to break parity with our stax pieces. Forcing opponents to discard is just a nice perk on top.

Bolas's Citadel : This pretty much wins the game if we have Sensei's Divining Top . Even without it can generate substantial value. With Atraxa's lifelink, we generally have plenty to spend digging.

Creatures Show

Academy Rector : Great Deterrent. Allows grabbing doubling season to go for the win or protect ourselves with something like humility.

Arena Rector : Throwing this onto the board is a massive threat. No one wants to swing at us if it can block as they risk dropping something like Ugin, the Spirit Dragon onto the field.

Captain Sisay : A new addition to the deck, can tutor for any planeswalker as well as the oath enchantments. With the recently added Minamo, School at Water's Edge we can tutor even more.

Spike Weaver : This guy is incredible. Often wider boards are threatening and having a Fog on legs is great. Being able to drop a +1 counter onto Atraxa can also be valuable if we are trying to take someone out with commander damage.

Deepglow Skate : Essential. Doubling on ETB is crazy and if opponents are not holding a counterspell we will likely be ulting all our planeswalkers on the field. Can also be flickered by Aminatou, the Fateshifter , Venser, the Sojourner , and even Oath of Teferi . Aminatou being the best by far as its not on our end step.

Planeswalkers Show

Ajani, Caller of the Pride : His +1 with Atraxa's proliferate is decent. If he ults, generally our opponents will be too busy looking for a way to clear the cats to stop whatever drove the ultimate (doubling season/deepglow)

Aminatou, the Fateshifter : Flicker, card selection, generally not ulting her

Ashiok, Dream Render : Prevents opponents from tutoring and is solid, 1-sided grave hate

Narset, Parter of Veils : prevents opponent card advantage as well as a nice effect to dig though our own library. Pair with Windfall

Elspeth, Knight-Errant : More tokens, ult from doubling season or deepglow on cast

Garruk Wildspeaker : untapping is great to enable stasis/stax lock or just plain ramp. also generates a blocker if needed

Narset Transcendent : Great all around, ults with doubling immediately and generally closes out games

Tamiyo, Field Researcher : INSANE. can draw, tap down, and her ult is Omniscience AND draw 3

Liliana Vess mostly used as a repeatable tutor effect, her ult is threatening if we are able to double

Tamiyo, the Moon Sage : More tap, draw and an insane value engine ult. Get a tutor in and have card selection for the rest of the game.

Venser, the Sojourner : Flicker is useful to save other planeswalkers, double trigger enchantments etc. Ult wrecks opponents if you can cast even a few spells.

Elspeth, Sun's Champion : Crazy token generation, a big creature board wipe. Ult is good if you have somehow amassed a token army despite chump blocking.

Liliana, Dreadhorde General : Creates blockers and draw, decent removal and a devastating ult on doubling.

Teferi, Hero of Dominaria : Draw and untap on his +1 is perfect for our stax list. Removal and ulting from doubling, this guy does it all.

Teferi, Temporal Archmage : Absurd. often you can cast and then untap enough mana to get far ahead. Great with stax.

Ugin, the Spirit Dragon : He can pull you back from the brink in almost any situation with his -X. If you manage to drop him with a doubling season/deepglow you can dump value onto the field, likely ulting any other planewalkers.

Enchantments Show

Oath of Nissa , Oath of Teferi : Each is good at nearly all points of the game. solid flicker targets

Carpet of Flowers : Solid ramp, almost always a blue player. Counts island shocks/duals as well.

Bitterblossom : Creates chump blockers that can act as sac fodder or be equipped with sword of F+F to enable stax. plays well with aura shards and lili.

Stasis : complete lockout unless they drop more lands. Soft lock unless we add something like Root Maze

Sterling Grove : Included to protect and even tutor for high impact enchantments (doubling season, humility, etc.)

Sylvan Library : Solid card/selection and the health is that important with Atraxa keeping us lifelinked.

Aura Shards : While we aren't running many creatures, creating tokens will wreak havoc on opponents artifacts/enchantments

Necropotence : Absurd card draw. however the is difficult. allows digging deep for an answer late

Phyrexian Arena : steady draw that has little downside with Atraxa keeping our life total topped off.

Rhystic Study : Consider it a stax piece rather than draw in most cases.

Humility : This may be one of the best cards in the deck. If we have any sort of planeswalkers out they are nigh unstoppable as long as we can keep cranking out tokens. Neuters so many other decks and disables ETB effects.

Smothering Tithe : Strong in general. Enables a Stasis lock and also great with Windfall .

Doubling Season The card that makes the deck a major threat. Important to note that you can stack triggers such that pir's and ajani's oath add first and then double.

Mirari's Wake : A great mana doubler that can make our turn after extremely dangerous. The buff to creatures is solid as well with a few tokens out.

Instants/Sorceries Show

Board Wipes/Single Target Removal

Toxic Deluge : Crazy good, takes out indestructible etc. Generally spending life isn't an issue with Atraxa's lifelink.

Supreme Verdict , Austere Command , Merciless Eviction , Cyclonic Rift : All solid board wipes with perks of flexibility. As we often don't have creatures these can really save a bad board state.

Assassin's Trophy , Swords to Plowshares : excellent singe target removal.

Tutors and others

Vampiric Tutor , Demonic Tutor , Enlightened Tutor : all great in the deck. Can bail out a bad situation or put us far ahead.

Farseek : Great ramp spell, can get shocklands and help fix our mana.

Teferi's Protection : A strong way to persist through other player's interaction/boardwipes.

Counterspell : Because most of us don't own Mana Drain and still want the interaction.

Windfall : Can refill our hand at worst. Ideally paired with smothering tithe or narset to ramp hard or annihilate everyone else's hand.
