Atraxa Poison by Urchin2

Format: Commander

Commander: Atraxa, Praetors' Voice

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is an Atraxa proliferate/infect Commander deck that wins by spreading poison counters through cheap toxic and infect creatures, then multiplying those counters with Atraxa, Ezuri, Inexorable Tide, Evolution Sage, and one-shot proliferate spells. The commander fills two roles: an evasive 4/4 with deathtouch/lifelink and, more importantly, a repeatable end-step proliferate engine. Secondary lines include a surprise Tainted Strike on an unblocked creature, a wide-board Triumph of the Hordes, and Vraska's ultimate for a poison-difference kill. There is no hidden commander; Ixhel and Vishgraz support the strategy, but Atraxa's end-step trigger is the deck's pivot.
