Does it have the same ban list as modern? If it does you can look at some place like mtggoldfish and then just start whacking cards that aren't legal. Based on decks that I expect to lose the least, I'd look at: Stompy Goblins Tron If the ban list is different, then you can look at: Affinity Izzet Blitz (this is real good if you get to play treasure cruises and probes, ponder, preordain, plus your opponents lose access to hydro/pyroblast) Tron again since you get Cloudposts blue decks get way worse if you can't play ponder or preordain, since you for sure are losing Counterspell and Brainstorm (where appropriate)

on the other hand you could just draw it in your draw step and then pay one mana and deal five damage, at the cost of not playing many other bad cards

Hellsau, as pauper whisperer, I need you to explain this thing to me: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/archetype/pauper-ubg-39542#paper I guess the joke is that you're ramping into 3 and 4 mana land destruction spells and then... ??? are pauper mana bases that land-light and bad that this works?

trillocity posted:The guy playing that UB Reanimator deck you played against in the quarters was kungfutrees, who uploads most of his challenge runs to YouTube. Here's your match against him: i know this reveals me to be a terrible magic player but ash barrens into bounceland, float colorless, landcycle ash barrens was.... well it was erotic Hellsau posted:Played against that UGb LD deck. It's unplayable garbage. I beat it rather convincingly with Familiars, a deck with 6 bouncelands and difficult color requirements. It seems like that deck literally only beats Tron and opponents who never draw out of the mana screw. i am unsurprised to learn this but I want desperately to be able to cast Temporal Springs

suicidesteve posted:"Suddenly" isn't the term I'd use. It's never been playable. The deck does literal nothing if you don't have the namesake enchantment in your top 10 cards, it has no filtering to find it, it doesn't do anything all that impressive when it does have it, it's glacially slow to perform its feats of mediocrity, and it doesn't even have an unbeatable late game like a deck with all of the above flaws needs to be playable. I've ground it down with Ghostly Flickers and Reaping the Graves more often than not. On top of all that, it can't beat graveyard hate, countermagic, or enchantment removal, or the card Pillar of Flame. okay but why is it unplayable

Hellsau posted:Its one glaring weakness is that Jace's Erasure's printing at common is an outlier, since there's been like three or four similar effects printed since that are all uncommon. One single Jace's Erasure isn't a fast enough clock if the opposition has any viable gameplan, so you're stuck digging to try to find two to end the game before they can fight back. i've found it to be pretty consistent with the Infinite Cantrips you have access to, plus transmuting Muddle the Mixtures. as you've said in this thread tho it 100% folds to pyroblast

neaden posted:So far it's been doing ok, but a bit inconsistent. I sometimes have trouble getting the last bits of damage in, especially if I've had to use Bolts and Temper as removal. Any suggestions for things t change? insolent neonate is really bad, especially when you aren't already playing the full set of faithless lootings. max out those, maybe play another tormenting voice, play arrogant wurm like Hellsau said. with the rancors that gives basically all of your guys evasion and they're all huge edit: I noodled on insolent neonate a little bit longer but I still don't like it. I get the joke, which is to have more ways to play a turn 3 wurm, and it carries a rancor just fine, but I like having a whole mess of creatures that don't die to bolt instead. I think having the wurm on turn 3 is overstated in terms of importance. Play against affinity where they just poo poo out 4/4s forever and also play some other spell. You can do the same thing.

I do not like playing thermo-alchemist in a deck with reactive cards like counterspell and vapor snag. That and the archer are easier threats to remove than, say, Spire Golem or Gurmag Angler, and I'm not convinced that winning outside of combat is enough upside to open yourself up to more interaction from your opponents. otoh, pauper is about having a good time and playing cards you want to play, so I'm going to play this: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/1716392#online
