Five Color Atraxa - Phyrexia Standard - MTG Arena

[@iszslayermaxx9912]

That's one thing I like about my decks, I don't have to worry about a mirror match. Nobody loses like I do.

[@MasterCrvo]

HELL YES, COMRADE

[@blahblahgdp]

I love making decks with 1 or 2x of a good card i want cause im too broke and then expecting it to work

[@drejerm7856]

That mirror was such a slog lol. I hate mirrors too

[@eduardoq.1544]

I thought giga chads didn't exist, you prove me wrong (sorry for my bad english, i'm trying)

[@NStripleseven]

real

[@CyberBuster93]

The mirror match was crazy! Such big swings back and forth, thowing one person ahead of another in a single turn. Just goes to show how insanely powerful Atraxa is!!!

[@brunogmguerra]

Best MTG Arena content creator hands down!

[@dumplingdepinto]

Hands all the way down

[@Legsman258]

That mirror match was completely insane!!!

[@diffiller]

Not a bad sum up at the end highlighting a unique advantage: "Can also outgrind even the mirror match"

[@nitiratp]

Five colours? In this economy? Noice!

[@CyberBuster93]

This deck is so over the top, it's crazy! Awesome job as always Luca, you're the best!!!

[@Ashen_Hollow]

Everytime farewell goes off, I just die a little inside.

[@JRandall0308]

It's how we say Farewell to Fun.

[@drejerm7856]

Just a miserable card

[@otto9141]

I love this, I love how every opponent just ran out an expensive creature into the kami war chapter 2

[@theexclusivecorner]

I've been waiting for a 5 colour deck from you! Amazing, thank you!

[@TheSkywalkerman117]

I need to come back to this video later when the new Omnath comes out. Card's gonna be so good!

[@paulocampino5045]

Fine deck. Was after a 5C deck for some time and just spent 4 rare and 1 mythic to complete it. Finally will give use to my Leyline bindings i got so early in Dominaria United. Excellent work as usual.

[@dumplingdepinto]

Remember you can cycle lands for 1R with Soul, I think it came up once or twice. Great list, once it gets going it's almost impossible for opponents to withstand the avalanche of value (aka avaluenche 😂).

[@LegenVD]

Yes, good point!

[@v3rtigo_]

Your 5C decks are my favorites! Too much value indeed

[@bryantan4228]

15:36 It doesn’t matter in this matchup but Soul of Windgrace’s second ability cycles lands for 2 mana which would let you leave up Cut Down

[@LegenVD]

Indeed it does!

[@benrichard452]

Thanks for all the entertainment. It's easy to forget that this is your job, because we are watching for fun. But you never call in sick!

[@francomatiasmarron1274]

I copied your list and named it 5 Color Grind lol. I could have also labeled it 5 Color Toolbox, the amount of value is infinite! Thanks a lot!

[@jacksonlittle5993]

Awesome!!!!! Huge 5 color fan, specially when the list isn't a meme.

[@jinxsiemcdeath6250]

Match 2 I was SCREAMING "Cruelty! He's obv holding his own Atraxa! No, not Soul of Windgrace..." at my screen

[@louisnemzer6801]

21:00 Just playing on a totally different level

[@povisykt]

uh, thats nice! I have been waiting for this

[@lukesterb2720]

wow that second match

[@Cynndora]

2nd game was amazing.

[@MagnaDrake]

That Atraxa Mirror game is a treat. What an insane card.

[@drakebaldrick]

Perfect timing! Thanks for uploading so consistently!

[@davestier6247]

Chromatraxa really provides a lot of value. Great list!

[@beefpelican]

Legend ruling the Atraxa you stole from your opponent to prevent them from stealing it back provides a lot of value

[@Panttz12]

Kami war is such a cool card

[@marklussier3249]

Sper fun deck, going to make and play this one right now! :)

[@Athrolaxle]

Well... that first one was wild.

[@FrelanceEQ]

not including any planeswalkers at all in an Atraxa deck is pretty wild

[@LegenVD]

Most Planeswalkers are not that great in the aggressive BO1 meta and it's not like Atraxa isn't still drawing a lot of cards. Eternal Wanderer was a consideration, but prefer Kami War at that point as it's even easier to cast.

[@zeusalternative1270]

I put Herd migration in most of my 4-5 color decks, it fixes the mana early on and in the late game is a powerful finisher.

[@Icameron259]

Same. It's also a Sorcery that you are happy for Atraxa to find, and because the ability is instant-speed it gives you a proactive use for 2-cmc counterspell mana.

[@Foldz880]

Instead of cycling the lands you can drop them off with soul of wind grace for 1 mana less

[@LegenVD]

Indeed!

[@mrdata9823]

what would be a good replacement for fable? it was banned from standard :(

[@pnkseven]

We could have a 5c Atraxa on explorer ? Anyone have a list ? Would like to try it.

[@amarauk9687]

Daily LVD video ✓ 5 colors deck ✓ Phyrexia goodies ✓ Epic Match ✓ No scoops ×

[@sofer2230]

Kinda hilarious how often people played their beater into your Kami War, then scooped when you bounced it. Like, what did they _expect_ to happen??

[@LegenVD]

Possible they didn't have anything better to do ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@TheK13pto]

Would be interesting to see your overall winrate with this deck. I crafted it and iam never able to draw any land, maybe the shuffler hates only 25 lands. Playing in plat since reset and no matter how ofter i mulligan the mana never works. Deck looks very very unconsisting to me

[@lighty.6292]

Maybe more lands overall, less basic lands and a few more tri color lands would help? I want to make something like this but am also skeptical about its consistency. Crokeyz made one a bit ago that had 28 lands and no basics, although that is gonna be tough on the wildcards lol.

[@brucegi]

Why you cycle your lands for 3 mana, when Soul of Windgrace can do this for 1+R?

[@LegenVD]

Yeah should’ve done that.

[@moimoi1761]

The decks looks good but why Drag to the Bottom instead of Depopuplate?

[@LegenVD]

Double Black is easier on the manabase given the other cards, it doesn't let the opponent draw, gets around Indestructible and we can have our Atraxa survive -6/-6. So not many reasons to prefer Depopulate.

[@moimoi1761]

@@LegenVD Thank you for your quick answer :). You're one of my favorite deck creator.

[@mikeanthony773]

"Opponent plays their own atraxa. Feels like we're behind now..." is exactly what I don't like about this format. It's like if Niv Mizzet Reborn required much less effort to build around and came with a "I have to remove this or I am dead" body.

[@mikeyj.philly]

They actually printed a card that costs 4 diff colors of 7 mana and actually makes the game go on LONGER. These people are helpless on that design team

[@nurikhsan8821]

Because nowadays design team always think about V A L U E when creating a card... Every "good cards" now can be summarized into two types, a card that gives you more value, or a card that gives you fast clock. There's no room for creativity, or sideboarding tactics, because every cards now made with BO1 format in mind. Speaking about creativity, for example, Atraxa here, is basically just Niv Mizzet Reborn draw slapped on Akroma stats. Her strength comes from her value. Remove that ETB ability, she is just a 7 mana fatty with no protection whatsoever.

[@texansforever6782]

Hey LegenVD how do you come up with the decks you play?

[@LegenVD]

I let my Patreon supporters pick cards for me to build a deck around most of the time. Then it's just a matter of maximizing synergies, adjusting for the meta, building a functional manabase, testing the deck, swapping some cards around and going back to the drawing board if it doesn't work out. Some decks build themselves, others require more time to get right.

[@texansforever6782]

@@LegenVD I love the variety of decks you play, your calm demeanour and prophetic insights

[@guitargenie211]

anyone else only get 2 lands 10 turns in a row every game?
