Deck Description

So back when this deck first came out in 2016, I knew I wanted this to be my first EDH deck I built. Not so much for what Atraxa did (it was a nice bonus), but it allowed me to play the four color deck I wanted to build in the first place.

I had always wanted my first EDH deck to be creature heavy, have +1/+1 counters involved and tokens. The added bonus is the planeswalkers I get to use in the deck, without going all in on the super friends theme.

Deck has a little bit of everything too. I can tutor for stuff, draw cards, ramp and counter spells ( I always seem to draw one of my two counter spells in this deck) and some board removal if needed. Granted the deck does not have a ton of removal or targeted removal spells. I simply couldn't fit more into the with how everything is setup.

It is far from perfect, especially the mana base, but I love how this deck has come around. Later on I will add original dual lands and fetches to help fix the mana base though.

Hope you enjoyed the deck and please leave me some likes.

How to Play

You cast creatures, hope to create a big board state. Hopefully, while doing so I get to benefit from some of the synergy in the deck.

Razaketh, provides a game ending combo if I have the mana (and enough creatures to sac) to cast Tamiyo, Field Researcher and Doubling Season in one turn. From there I can play the other Tamiyo for free, destroy the board with infinite vindicates or create a infinitely large Walking Ballista (Trostani, Selesnya's Voice and Reyhan, Last of the Abzan enable this combo).

Helm of the Host on Atraxa is a funny way to win the game, especially once they get +1/+1 counters on them.

It started out a shell of the Pre-con deck and has slowly evolved into this deck now. You can certainly make a budget friendly deck. If you take out the tutors, the only expensive cad re is doubling season.
