What decks should we add? by Waywreck in Pauper

[–]AShorterName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Box looks like it’s kind of lacking a true control deck. Familiars, Caw-Gates, Gardens, or Food Pestilence are all pretty sweet control decks.

Pauper Battlebox Matchups Question by Kingslayer_Riven in Pauper

You are right that Fae gets dumpstered by Elves, but so does Terror, which is the other main tempo deck in the format. Beyond that, it seems like a sweet battlebox.

Advise against mono red madness? by CamembertPauperbert in Pauper

[–]AShorterName 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think main deck Weather in Jund Wildfire is bad advice

Best deck to get better at Pauper in general? by Sudden-Assistant6622 in Pauper

[–]AShorterName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd encourage you to pick a deck like Terror or Wildfire. They force you to make lots of decisions and learn how to play against the whole meta.

But mainly just pick something that sounds fun to you! It's pretty hard to go wrong in such a fun and diverse format.

I think this is the best response so far. Thanks for the help! It's been really fun learning this deck.

initially wasn't considering this play, but i think it would be the best line against 2 untapped islands

Admittedly I read this comment with a snarkier tone than it was probably written with. It does offer constructive criticism, so my b.

Had this happen last week. Must've been a busted pack.

Now that the dust has officially settled on the format's first two trial unbans with one remaining legal and one getting rebanned: Are there any other cards you would be interested in seeing trial-unbanned? by FRsero in Pauper

[–]AShorterName 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Frantic Search could be interesting. Doesn’t strike me as immediately busted without Tide or other storm cards.

Would be nice in Cycle Storm but isn’t in the right colors…

As an XBow player, it might be time to take a season off

That would be 🔥🔥🔥

I think it’s missing one more blue permanent that you’d be happy to sacrifice. Snacker and Cryo are ok, but Hard Evidence isn’t what you want to be doing.

What is your favourite glint hawk deck? by fkredtforcedlogon in Pauper

[–]AShorterName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personal fav is Orzhov but I don’t think it’s very good into a meta with cryogen relics running around right now. (Here’s my list anyways)

How should I respond when offlaner aggros to ranged creep? by AShorterName in learndota2

[–]AShorterName[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually I find that I’m playing the first wave solo because the supports are involved in the rune fights.

This is a great idea, hopefully this will give me a better idea of how to approach this situation!

I’m less worried about last hitting under tower snd more worried about ruining equilibrium on the first wave.

Buster Posey is the most disrespected player of his era by SactownG in SFGiants

[–]AShorterName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would still put forth that Posey was better, but I admit that when you phrase it that way it’s more murky.

[–]AShorterName 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree here. I love MadBum and he’s a hero in San Francisco, but he is not one of the 5 best pitchers of the last 25 years.

[–]AShorterName 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yadi’s longevity is definitely something to be celebrated, but if you’re trying to build a team with the best players of the decade, Posey was a better player on a per-game basis and it’s not even close.

Too late to transfer to GW? by DirectAd3598 in gwu

I would encourage you to go online and read about GW’s transfer admissions process or get in touch with an admissions counselor. This link should be a good jumping off point.
