2:53:00 Reid there was actually a way to guarantee not dying to double removal. you main phase 1 field of ruin one of the two red open mana lands, even if they have an island left they only have 1 red mana up. that leaves you with the land you get of field of ruin with 5 mana up, enough for a 1 mana shark plus veto.

He could have also YOLO'd a March of Otherworldly Light off the top if he cycled shark typhoon for 1 instead of double activate anchorage. NVM... he only has 1 in the deck and he used it on the land earlier in the game...

Atog!!! Used to think that pauper was a boring format, that the "power" of the format was insanely exagareted. These were my thoughts never having played the format. I was a modern affinity player and this kid in my community was currently looking to trade for pauper affinity cards, having a mainly proxied up deck thus far. This was back in the day before the Mox Opal ban, and when the kid asked to play pauper affinity against my modern affinity deck, i thought he would have no chance whatsoever... I went 0-5, maybe 1-4 against this kid, even with mox starts and everything i just couldn't handle Atog-swing+fling out of nowhere. I was honestly baffled at this time, and went home to research the pauper format the very same night. Today i have sold a big chunk of my modern deck, but i kept the Commons. I dont have a modern deck, and i have no intentions of getting back into it. I think its really interesting to hear you talk about the identity of a format, never thought of it like that at all. Modern lost very much of its cool and appealing identity to me with the modern Horizon and Lord of the Rings sets, and i just dont enjoy modern anymore. I cant recognize it as the format i was getting into back in the day, the identity is not what i signed up for.. But! I am currently building my 6th pauper deck. Im not playing tournaments or anything, but i love the diversity of the format, and i can afford to have 6 decks on my shelf. I have a lot of friends who likes to play Magic, but dont want to invest into it, and pauper is a hilarious format to play with them. I often describe pauper as a format with fast mana, free spells and busted engines, but weaker finishers. It has a very cool identity, and i simply love it!

I really don’t like deduce myself. I almost would rather have quick study. I mean you’re paying 4 to draw 2 from deduce. And 3 to draw 2 from quick study.
@gpeixe
@gpeixe 9 ай бұрын
I think it might be that you have fewer windows to resolve a 3cmc spell in this format. With deduce you pay more mana, but you can afford to pay 2 mana more often in between turns.

frankly it's depressing that pioneer's UW control has a total of 6 non land cards in the main deck that were printed over 5 years ago. Power creep is erasing the game's history even in the formats that are supposed to preserve it.

After watching this and playing this and against this in standard, I’m pretty sure sunfall is just a better card than supreme verdict. The exile is relevant quite often and the incubate token often wins the game or also has to be removed. I think its worth 1 more mana
@grambo2020
@grambo2020 9 ай бұрын
You can just board in rest in peace and verdict = the same outcome for exile. Pioneer alot of times you don't have time for 1 more mana. Verdict is just well rounded cheaper and can't be countered
@highwindjump88
@highwindjump88 9 ай бұрын
Spell Pierce is brutal against Sunfall. Also, Spirits still sees some play, and Sunfall is countered by Mausoleum Wanderer. Verdict is hit by Queller, but the 1 drop countering 5 mana hurts way more than 3 mana stopping a 4 cost.
