[@TolarianCommunityCollege]

The Instructor would have gone infect (though I did slyly show a few suggestions if you look carefully). This is the NICE version of this deck. Someone in the comments said I could have gone the route of Mono Green Atraxa Super Jerks. YEP. That's the EVIL version.

[@Tuturial464]

Wow. Sounds like me. Wait I think I said something like that.

[@TolarianCommunityCollege]

@@Tuturial464 did you make that up yourself? That's very clever. mono green atraxa. Honestly, if I'd have thought of that catchy title, I might have gone the evil way just because it is so clever.

[@eightbitblitz5868]

So why did you decide to just remake the leovold deck?

[@Tuturial464]

@@TolarianCommunityCollege when I first saw this card, it was like mono green atraxa in my head because of the similarities of adding counters. This one is less color restricted being to green. Otherwise the ramp color but imagine if it was five colors.

[@Bluecho4]

Given that it's a Green deck, it should probably be called Planeteers. With Vorinclex as the edgy, Phyrexian Captain Planet. (Would that make him Captain Pollution?)

[@addmorelazers]

Keep in mind that Vorinclex does not specify "effect" like doubling season, and as a result, will also increase your own planeswalker upticks. Combined with the Ozolith, if you have a creature with 2 counters on it that dies, the Ozolith gets 4 counters, and when you move those counters off of it, the creature gets 8. It is also interesting to note that the doubling effect also works with energy and experience counters too. Edit: Spelling

Thing is, it's EDH. Even if everyone but the mono green guy is building tier 7 or 8 decks....when they get ganged up on, they'll probably still lose, ORRRR the group can invest just a whiff of dollars into their decks and get godlike hate cards that bury that specific strategy that you hate.

[@phoenixgemini42]

Really? Most play groups have decks that consistently win on turn 5 and can even win as early as turn 3. Then again I live in a town with a popular military base, so many of them have money, but still it's so common to see decks worse than this

[@Corwin404]

@@phoenixgemini42 We have those decks, we just don't play them against each other. When we can all get some time together to play magic, we want to actually play together and someone has always thrown together some new jank to see how it works. If someone wins by turn 5 then it's over before most of the group got to do anything and only one person had fun. Sometimes we bust them out after agreeing beforehand but we prefer longer games where everyone gets to show what their deck does.

[@mikedeanfucks1435]

All while the 3 decks you’re playing against are attempting to do essentially the same thing. Thus begins the cycle of trying to build the most annoying deck within your playgroup. Also, playing with other despicable people/decks, causes the table-talk/political arguments and/or lobbying for who needs to die first even more awesome.

If you have a chasm, and they have a Vorinclex, you put a counter rounded down onto the Chasm for the cumulative upkeep.

[@zackkelley2940]

Now what if you had a Chasm AND a Vorinclex^^

[@metalteuffel2484]

So long as the opponent can knock out the other player/players before their Glacial Chasm kills them, sure. If whoever running Vorinclex has, well Pistus Strike for example, or another similar card, Glacial Chasm isn't going to save them.

Can WotC just stop making sets "with Commander in mind". While it was nice at the start when they would dip their toe in with a card here and there that was focussed on Commander, this whole mindset is adding too much, too fast. I've got four Commander decks, and all four are now completely outclassed in the past year. Like... not even upgradable. Why run Atraxa when this monstrosity is running about?

[@heroic_gamer2108]

uhh well atraxa is multicolored and has access to way more card types

[@APyralis]

@@heroic_gamer2108 There isn't a need for that with Vorinclex here. Access can be great, but is easily overcome by a focussed strategy that requires less to get online. If every card in your deck needs double white, or some combination of W/B/U/G you'll waste time trying to find mana over a mono-green or 80/20 G/B.

[@heroic_gamer2108]

@@APyralis Well maybe, but the appeal is ultimating planeswalkers immediately upon entry which is great with green and colorless; however, planeswalker ultimates in other colors are far more lethal than a lot of green or colorless ones ever could be. So I still think that there's definitely an appeal for rolling with Atraxa. The benefit of Vorinclex is that he has a better focused synergy with specific counters and has the doubling season effect stapled onto him in the command zone. Atraxa lacks this, but because she has access to more colors and cards, there are more directions that you can take her decks
