All of the discussion on the forum about this archetype has me really wanting to build a stax deck. I have never really tried it in EDH before, so I want to know the best cards in our format to play stax.
I want to know the best stax pieces and enablers engines all of it. Help me MTGSalvation you're my only hope.
P.s. I consider nothing sacred as far as strategy goes mld is fine by me.
Then having a token generator like Elspeth, Knight-Errant or something that keeps coming back like Bloodghast helps you have things to sac while everyone else is actually losing cards
Mass land destruction can also be strong since you will probably want to have a good amount of mana rocks

Winter's Orb is great to slow people down
Magus of the Tabernacle / The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale and mana web / war's toll can make your opponents choose between having land to play with or keeping their creatures.
Nether Void is expensive but stupidly powerful and Tainted Æther is nice to
Some more of the good tax cards are
Trinisphere
Thalia, Guardian of Thraben
Grand Arbiter Augustin IV
Aura of silence
and if you wanted to hurt players who use a lot of artifacts Hum of the Radix and Molder Slug
Hope it helps
RGW Rith, the Awakener
BRG Prossh, Skyraider of Kher
UBR Nicol Bolas
GWU Treva, the Renewer
RWU Numot, the Devastator
