You need to make sure you're playing against the proper deck without spoiling the surprise about what you're playing.

The other Atraxa is in the deck as well, for an alternative commander. The reason is, you'll need a way to actually close out the game, especially against other players that aren't hated out by the meme so this deck features an infect sub-theme. \n\nYour gameplan is as follows: first look for the funniest moment to reveal the meme, commonly this will be right after their commander hits the field. Until that happens, make it look like you're playing a infect deck or a normal control deck by holding the most obvious pieces back. When they are ready to pop off, start hitting them with the hate pieces. You can give them hope by playing removable hate like "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Ashiok's Erasure"}},{"insert":" or "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Mocking Doppelganger"}},{"insert":" but eventually you want to drain the life from their eyes with something like "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Surgical Extraction"}},{"insert":" or "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Extirpate"}},{"insert":". \n\nOnce the meme is complete you pivot into infect. Taking out the players unaffected by the meme first. These days, it's fairly easy to figure out what important pieces are in peoples' decks so you can still control the flow of the game with smart naming from cards like "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Anointed Peacekeeper"}},{"insert":" and "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Disruptor Flute"}},{"insert":". \n"}]}
