>Which rules should I follow? If you don't already have some homebrew version with friends, follow the MTGO card pool and banlist (and please spread this to your friends that start playing with you). Currently the only place Pauper is officially supported by Wizards is online, and they have a card pool and banlist, therefore that is the format we should be using offline on paper as well, since decks and cards can transfer to games between each other with no confusion.
>WAHHH THATS TOO HARD WHERE... mtg-hunter.com The bottom left has a box, select MTGO Pauper, all cards in the card pool and banlist are taken into account.
>What deck should I use? Ask in the thread!
>Is MTGO worth it? If you have no local paper competition, but want to play a vast amount of Pauper, it can't be beat, even if it is a clunky GUI, you learn quickly.

Caleb Collins
Pauper is shit for brewing though, it's probably the worst constructed format to brew in. The power level is high yet the complexity level is (relatively) low, so established, powerful archetypes are going to dumpster anything you brew that strays too far from those.

Landon Perez
How shitty does this look?
Blake Jones
Looks fine. Maybe side a Vampire or two, he's probably gonna eat a counterspell most of the times against Ux decks.
Matthew Wood
>tfw no Simic Sky Swallower lite common in UG
Fuck.
Michael King
This deck looks really sweet
Luke Wilson
I've made Boros Samurais actually beat Delver/Gurmag and Infect. You could try and experiment more.
John Richardson
>Worst constructed Wrong, that's modern.
Noah Martin
Try reading the whole post friend. Pauper is not the worst constructed format, it's one of the better ones, but it isn't good to brew in
Michael Torres
Spicy
Kevin Stewart
h8 my Brew, Veeky Forums. I have a hardon for unstable mutation.
Andrew Parker
The numbers of stuff you're running seem weird.
Jaxson Torres
Think I should go for more Counterspells than Eel Umbra? I really like the fact that it has flash.
Chase Russell
I'm not sure, to be honest. I'm not super familiar with Pauper as it is; I just browse the threads to gauge my own interest in trying the format.
But I know 1-2 ofs are usually a bad choice unless you have a lot of card draw or other deck manipulation. Better to run playsets for consistency's sake.
I know it's not very helpful advice, but I always recommend testing things themselves to people that are unsure what to cut. Easier said than done, I know.
Robert Jenkins
>teleports behind you
>casts Gush
Nolan Morris
I think you could use some more card draw/deck manipulation and Delver to be completely honest
Lincoln Barnes
Bullshit. Pauper has lots of new decks that do decently, or do you think boros and kuldotha kitty came out of the air?
Yes, it has a very tight cmc requirement but lots of decks haven't been built yet.
Josiah Adams
Also Boros Monarch has come out recently and is doing pretty good too
Levi Jones
M8 its memedern player.
Matthew Myers
Delver won't flip and Card Manipulation is Tempo waste. It's not a tempo deck, it's a beatdown deck.
Caleb Mitchell
>card manipulation >tempo waste Do you breath with your mouth bud?
Cameron Baker
How do I explain to a dense delver player that in an Aggro deck I rather play a Threat than spend mana looking and organizing the top of my Library?
Jace Perez
How do explain to a microbrained aggro player how good tempo wise is a ponder or preordain... And how much U benefits from it...
Plus you are playing way too many mana intensive shit.
Jacob Hall
It sounds more like a problem with your brew skills honestly. I've had no problem brewing playable decks in the format.
Luis Jenkins
No it dosen't. I don't need to fish for any cards. I need to shit them on field.as fast as possible. Mana intensive cards are a concern, yes. But it's built around them, that's.why is so heavy on snaps and daze.
Dylan Hughes
How will you shit out if you need to upkeep so much crap bub? It'd work better as a tempo-ish shell
Jeremiah Bennett
Except that stuff can enable a Delver to flip consistently (ignoring the fact that prevents dead draws, flooding and lets you reshuffle dead cards) and i don't see how a flying 3/2 for U is bad in an aggro strategy
William Diaz
Everything is 1 mana, and I prioritize those who don't have upkeep costs.
Delver won't flip and I won't just change the entire deck just to accomodate him. This is not a tempo build. Is closer to Red Deck Wins with Jackal and Moggs than it is to Delver Tempo.
Luis Taylor
>Is closer to Red Deck Wins with Jackal and Moggs You don't have a Bushwhacker equivalent, it's Bushwhacker that makes RDW great not the shitty 1 mana 2/2s
Cooper Robinson
I also don't have a bolt equivalent. But RDW dosen't have Daze, Spellsutter, Unstable Mutation and Sunken City.
Christopher Myers
there's this hexproof vedalken dude with improvise
Jordan Smith
Unfortunate.
Not wrong but. Plenty of fun decks that could play the long game just can't cut it against delver.
Isaiah Baker
Return of storm since when? Deck putting up results or just tugging nuts?
Nathan Richardson
Since never. It won't pull results because it's creature based on a low creature deck. Archer is a good creature, but it dosen't revive storm.
