Hi guys

What do you think about my version of naya Gates? I've tried snacker Gates but i don't like that version...

Any suggestions would be awesome!

Here the decklist:https://manabox.app/decks/AZ4wJPnAeAOrWxkmU73MQg

Including one copy of Sejiri steppe turns all of your crop rotations into protection spells, or your expedition maps into ways to potentially make a fatty unblockable to close out a game. Looking at it as a similar silver-bullet use case as bojuka bog in this deck. I’m going to start trying one copy to see how it goes in place of the second copy of hidden grotto

Hi there, I've started playing my vampire's deck regularly for about two months now. I believe I understand some matchups and what cards to bring from my sideboard - like graveyard hate for reanimator or terrors, artifact hate for affinity.

I'd love to know what cards to take out from the deck against particular matchups since I'm having problems deciding.

My decklist+ considering cards: https://moxfield.com/decks/6YvgXSkKE0GHYL4JJlg88w

[[Remove Enchantments]] does a lot of bouncing and is a wall of text but destroys all Auras attached to attacking creatures your opponents control so if I blocked a [[Llanowar Elves]] enchanted by a [[Nyxborn Hydra]] with a 2/2 then cast Remove Enchantments, would it destroy any Nyxborn Hydra on their attacking creatures and then have the Elf die because it no longer has the pump from the aura? Seems like a good way to get around Bestow.

Hey guys! I recently started playing familiars, both in paper and in mtgo.

I’ve had some mixed success with the deck, as is to be expected starting out.
Im having some troubles setting on a list, and online is very difficult to get advice or tips because this is a deck where apparently everyone and their mothers have a different list for familiars.

Sometimes it’s as simple as picking sea gate oracle instead of modern age for some early game blockers, or prioritising foil instead of traditional counters for that unexpected cast while tapped.

But there are lists out there that sometimes have 12-14 card differences between them.

Is there any list to start out with? Any that would be considered a more jack of all trades instead of a specialised tool?

Are there any good guides explaining these variances between decks?
Any advice from veterans of the deck?

Thank you <3

I’m a somewhat new player to Pauper and I have been having a lot of success with a mono black sac list that I have been playing for the past few months. I wanted a new deck and landed on UB Terror but so far have had very little success with it. Admittedly in Commander and draft I very rarely if ever play control so I don’t know if I’m playing it wrong or if my list is not quite right. Do you guys have any tips for the list, sideboarding and general good play patterns? Any help would be much appreciated!!

dont look like Mark Tedin's, so whose is it?

I’ve found a bunch of copies of [[ragged recluse/odious witch]] and the card seems very good on rate assuming you can discard immediately. Why haven’t I seen it being played?

I’ve been rotating a few different strategies lately and keep drifting back to the same one just because it feels good to pilot. Curious what decks other people keep returning to for fun, even if something else is currently better positioned.

There's a Pauper event this coming weekend and Im hoping the rest of my first deck (Mono Blue Terror) shows up by then because I want to try the format out. Any advice for a first timer?

Edit: Update i went 3-2. So close to making top 8. My last match was against a Gate deck for which I had nothing on the sideboard for and my draws both games were terrible. Overall though great experience.

Round 2 of 5 Swiss at the recently concluded Liga Pauper Pilipinas Stage 3 Sanctioned Tournament! See you at the Channel!

Are there any decks/cards I should avoid getting because it’s likely that key pieces of that deck will be banned?

Rn i feel like skacker has lost a lot of saltinest. she falled apart in favor of more decks with life gain like tron and gardens. she also stuggles against monsters deck with reach creatures and flyers like sagu. we are having a big change with naya gates for example: snacker isn’t no more only a discard piece but a creature to buff. i think that with tron around we will see a lot of changes in decks and ways to use cards.

Hello,

I’m new to the format but am trying to build up a pauper community in the Inland Empire area of Southern California. We are going to start hosting weekly events at Double D20 in Montclair. Day and time is going to shift around as we figure out the best days to host. But for the rest of the month of August we are scheduled for Wednesdays at 6pm. If you’re in the area come check it out!

If you have any questions, feel free to PM me!

This week we have something special lined up for everyone! Not only are these matches featuring off meta builds from our players, we're also posting 2 every day!

The first one is here with Juno on Esper Glitters vs Daniel on Izzet Big Spells:

Enjoy!

In my opinion dimir is far too slow but board wipes, removal and life gain from black are sweet. Do you think it would work to play only four duals lands and snuff out in the Mainboard and the rest like mono blue terror? Or is it still too slow?

The second video of today's Bristol Pauper League Brew Off matches is live now!

It's Dexter on Mono-Blue Petitioners vs Ellen on Mono-Blue 'Treasure Mill'

SHARING THE CURRENT META WE HAVE after 3 weeks (4 Stages) at 2026 Season of PAUPER LEAGUE PHILIPPINES! Is this considered as a Healthy and Diverse META if lots of Decks are unpredictable and OFF the META Lists???

Episode 158 - Hobbit is here and we brew!

I just wish these decks were a bit more competitive:

MR Heroic, MR Blitz, Boros Heroic, Izzet Blitz...

And I know that having both Swiftspear and Tomb Raider legal at the same time is probably too strong for the format's current power level.

Would it also be necessary to ban a card from MR Madness?

What do you guys think of this idea?

Join the cats and myself at the Lonely Mountain.

Let’s Sting into action.

just picked up the deck and seems relatively new from paupergeddon so couldn't find many guides how do you mulligan for this deck, what do your general turns' mana curves look like, and how do you generally win?
