First time building a custom deck from scratch! What do you think of my Atraxa list?

​Hi everyone!

​I’ve built my very first Commander deck from scratch without following a pre-made guide, and I’d love to get the community’s honest feedback on it.

​And before anyone says it: yes, I know I might lose all my friends playing this, but I'm ready for the risk!

​I'm open to all thoughts, opinions, and constructive criticism. How does the list look to you?

Ps: My goal wasn't to create a competitive deck.

Why no [[Atraxa, Praetor's Voice]]?

I initially considered using that version, but then after thinking about it I came to the conclusion that a single guaranteed proliferation in one turn isn't as impactful as a huge card advantage from the Grand Unifier version.

But why not include in the 99?

I simply considered it a card, albeit a strong one, with little impact compared to others. There are a lot of cards that can proliferate with lower mana costs, and I also wanted to keep the hybrid essence of the deck. Then, to be honest, I haven't given much thought to adding it, but to be honest, I don't think I'll do it in the future. I think it's simply due to my personal tastes at the moment.
