That Distant Melody was brutal. Thoralf already had more lands then he needed to snowball and then just bricked. I felt that to the depths of my ramp loving, drawing the wrong half of my deck soul.

[@GraemeGunn]

But it wasn't the Distant Melody's fault for all the lands, they would have been drawn anyway as the turns went on. It was actually good in a way, it removed those lands from the top of the deck, at least, now Thoralf can draw spells again.

[@piercearora7681]

@@GraemeGunn Still means that his big payoff refuel spell didn't refuel like he needed it to.

[@GraemeGunn]

@@piercearora7681 yeah that's the game

[@sonnilowe8858]

Yeah, so brutal. Especially since it wasn't the wrong |half" of his deck, it was the wrong sixth. Elves runs so few lands, drawing four there was very unlucky.

[@MarkAvo]

Most Pauper Elves lists run what, 14/15 lands?! He drew 9 of those! Bad beats.

[@rygore14]

We love Andrea, he's the best, bring him back every week!

[@JoeDF]

That's exactly what I was gonna say! How'd you know!? 😉

[@nivnikov]

We love Andrea, but we love Vladimir Bulanov even more!

[@ThereIsAnExtension2UndoHandles]

4:55 ah yes, the classic "add 4 forests to your hand" gotta love it

[@Ex4_]

I love how Andrea gives tips about how to properly play the deck. This really elevates this above "just a gameplay" video and is somewhat educational if you're playing the format yourself.

[@ichguckegerneyoutube8837]

I love the pauper videos from thoralf and mengu, its always very fun to watch

[@EgXP]

We love Andrea! He's the best! Bring him every week! (Well, every week might be tough, but who knows? If we have a million subscribers, maybe we can afford bringing Andrea back every week, and then we have infinite Pauper Andrea shenanigans. Well...)

[@CardmarketMagic]

That would be wonderful :)

[@fernandoleal489]

5:20 what a brutal draw 4 lands in the deck that must run less then 20 lands

[@AENock]

Pauper Elves run 11-13 lands lol

[@alexssain]

​@@AENockactually not, is about 14-15 but ye, still

[@screamyhawk4004]

@@alexssain Most just run 12 and if you play land grant, run just 8. So @AENock was right ;)

[@beanofknowledge2125]

Pauper is always a good time, especially with the man Andrea Mengucci himself

[@siradzki5905]

Mr. Mengu, Master of Magic ❤

[@Nogoatsnoglory]

Pauper videos are what brought me to the channel to begin with. Always more pauper. But honestly, no other YT MTG channel has the quality of play like Cardmarket does. It's so easy to follow games and the commentary has helped so much when watching videos on other formats I have not familiarity with.

[@CardmarketMagic]

I'm happy you enjoy them :) I put a lot of work into the 1v1 gameplay videos especially

[@nidunha14]

So happy you guys are back! Been missing the competitive content for the past few weeks. :)

[@CardmarketMagic]

I'm happy we get to scratch that itch :)

[@DackKija]

Yes! More Pauper AND two new decks for the feature match. Thanks Carl & co!

[@CardmarketMagic]

Thank you! For your kind comment :) -C

[@MrPlow-jc4cr]

*in a high pitched voice* We love Andrea, he's the best! Bring him every week!

[@Razomka]

Andrea is an excellent guest, definitely get him in more often! Great to see that the videos are coming back!

[@brandnamepending4817]

These well edited gameplay videos are always my favorite of yours, hope to see more of these in the future.

[@XenoSun]

We love Andrea! He's the best! Bring him back every week!

[@noahmorris1015]

i'm SO HAPPY to hear that andrea always asks to play pauper, because thats EXactly how i feel! modern and standard is great, and so are the videos with more unusual formats/games- but pauper is always the best in my opinion. (but i really do love all the cardmarket stuff :) )

[@xXYourShadowDaniXx]

Pauper often just feels more like OG magic, less power-creepy cards etc

[@DctrJimbo]

We love Andrea he’s the best bring him every week 🙂🎉

[@moor532]

17:16 the synchronicity! Love the pauper vids. Also please keep inviting Andrea!

[@jarlskuld7973]

We love Andrea, he's the best, bring him back every week! (Also great video as usual!)

[@r4diantshad0w44]

Pauper is my favorite format! Glad to see another one uploaded

[@HadzoonayMeegus]

We love Andrea, he's the best, bring him back every week.

[@Aaackermann]

We love Andrea! He is the best! We want to see him every week!

[@B-Ran_the_Man]

Really want to know the odds of drawing 4 straight lands on turn 4 with that distant melody. That was brutal

[@sulevjaaniste5394]

And with a deck that has 13 lands max

[@miyomiyo1050]

About 1 in 1,000. He had already removed 7 nonlands and 4 lands from the deck (hand, board, graveyard). Assuming 14 lands total in the 60 the chance of drawing 4 consecutive lands is (10/49)*(9/48)*(8/47)*(7/46) = 0.0991%.

[@mike-games6281]

These gameplay videos (going all the way back to the beginning) are my absolute favorites ones out there. So much fun to watch. Job well done.

[@ilsignoredellaluce2234]

I'm a simple man. I see Thoralf and Mengu on a thumbnail, i click on it

[@SDWFjermex]

We love Andrea, hes the best, bring him back every week!

[@BacchusGames]

Love the 1v1s, y’all are the best at it and it’s my favorite mtg content.

[@CardmarketMagic]

That's so nice to hear :D thank you!

[@pwnagecakes8934]

[@CardmarketMagic]

It's a wonderful deck :) I maintenant it on mtgo and I heavily recommend it, you have game against anything that isn't combo!

[@drax9274]

I've compleated my version of synthesizer today, played against it with my friend, and when I came back home, this video was up on the channel, that's so wild!

[@ozzysmith2571]

Andrea and Thoralf vibe so well. Pauper content is always fun!

They had choreographed a big fight in the bazaar against the guy waving around the scimitar, but Harrison Ford was sick that day and tired of filming so he did his own choreography

[@asherhinrichs9566]

We love Andrea, he is the best, bring him back every week!! 😊

[@DrCoolGuy88]

Thoralf and Andrea is my ideal combo for these videos. The speed of play, knowledge, and most of all how much fun they have playing one another. Loved the game 1 galvanic blast and Thoralf shuffling for Andrea to pick at random hahaha

[@thedarklight247]

We love andrea, he's the best bring him every week well, every week might be tough but who knows if we have a million subscribers maybe we can afford bringing Andrea back every week and then we have infinite Pauper and Andrea Shenanigans

Always down to watch Andrea play

[@Reluxthelegend]

7:46 I aolmost expect to him to say "sideboard is going to be quite shallow... because I am taking out all forests" as a joke

[@ZM-nb9ib]

Pauper every hour, every day, every week. Andrea and Thoralf are great fun to watch! :)

[@qmonster7766]

[@tyler9123]

Seeing the distant melody rip makes me happy to have picked up flesh and blood recently as my current competetive card game to play

[@Lukesybilrud]

I was just watching the last Andrea & Thoralf pauper match again hoping for another video ! These videos are so wonderfully fun and extremely helpful to watch and learn from. Thanks as always for the great work !

[@espenpeterson4387]

I loved the contrasting editing for the pre-game interviews

[@kurowasanabe]

A real highlight of my pauper day.

[@maciejszpyra]

It's always a joy to see Mengu as a guest here. Would it be possible to have decklists included in the description?

[@back2flak939]

So nice to watch pauper games that aren't just counterspells and snuff out every turn. Good stuff. Unfortunate match up!

[@freal7412]

What a better way to start the year than with Mengu ? Love to see him in your vids

[@Lwai.]
