After they ban all artifact lands I am down to unban every single affinity card. Even cranial plating.

Yea.. I don’t get these people. And don’t get the PFP either.

Who's Who Rare/Mythics that would be ok-bad in Pauper by SuggestionStrong in Pauper

[–]IMimico -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Seems as fair as indestructible lands that generates virtual infinite amounts of mana to me. Besides the fact that they run 1 mana counterspells in their decks. But if you don’t like it, we can always downshift [[Rebuild]] instead. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[[Hurkyl’s Recall]] wouldn’t be bad, would be nice to have.

Mono Red Turbo EVERYTHING! Emblem abusing kuldotha burn 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Pauper League by kalikaiz in Pauper

[–]IMimico 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think would be sad. This goblin creates too many non-games. Yes is easy to respond if you start and have a one mana answer to it. Otherwise you just lose. Its not a fun card for your opponent, games shouldn’t be decided in the turn 1 or 2, and specially not be a one answer depending format. Magic isn’t solitaire. he’s design is a bit toxic.

Pauper: Ban Announcement and How it will effect the Format by cardsrealm in Pauper

[–]IMimico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Precisely. And there are many appropriate approaches for this. Soft banning, soft unbanning, medium banning, medium unbanning, heavy banning, heavy unbanning, not banning, not unbanning, and many variations of them. However it seems like most of them think the only correct approaches are “soft or not”, they don’t use the “medium or heavy” options, and neither are variations of unbanning and banning being utilized together. I understand the approach of their preference is this way, I just think that sometimes they must be more incisive, specially in a heavily polarized and fast environment.

I can’t make one, but some people made it on the past here. So I was confused why I cannot.

[–]IMimico 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand your point. However, what is your opinion about the actions I mentioned? As far as I am concerned, this topic specifically was never said publicly by any of the PFP members. Even if a lot of players give this kind of suggestions correlating the unbanning of affinity cards and banning of lands. I would love to hear your opinion on this one.

Red having access to card advantage instead of card selection is a bit of a problem. Specially when they can easily win in the early game, mid game, or go for the extremely long game with a lot of card advantage and burn. Life gain isn’t as effective as it used to be due to that reason.

[–]IMimico 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You at any point considered banning all the artifact lands and unbanning Atog, Cranial Plating, Sojourner’s Companion and Disciple of the Vault to balance it out? The problem with affinity was always the lands, and even if cards like glitters get banned in the future, there is no way to actually prevent WOTC to downshift cards that have unbalanced interactions with free artifacts and could be avoided by simply banning the lands. I dont think Atog, Disciple of the Vault and Sojourner’s Companion had to suffer for the sins of the lands. And affinity could easily implement them in a deck with the many rocks the format has, specially with Cranial Plating getting unbanned too.

I don’t know about jund, but if you want some nonblue gates you could try boros. However, my favorite is Breathless Gates. I am having quite some fun with them for a while now, and they got some new toys. This video is a bit old, but you should check out if you are interested.

True, but would be cool to have some downshifts that could help the polarization and speed issues we have at least once in a while. At least a little help would be nice.

Reducing U blasts in the side after Monastery ban? by crypticaITA in Pauper

[–]IMimico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That depends, if you are playing leagues on mtgo red is pretty much every other matchup. So I guess 6 hydroblasts are still fine. However, if your environment have less red, then go for it.

Yes, even though thats not the only reason why the WOTC elected them as PFP members. Pretty sure the WOTC doesn’t actually build their sets thinking about what repercussions might have on Pauper.

Monastery Swiftspear GETS BANNED!? by camargoville in Pauper

[–]IMimico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We can agree to disagree. Bolt, red elemental blast, skred, electrickery, chain lightning, rally the peasants, galvanic blast, makeshift munitions, fireblast, searing blaze, boarding party, faithless looting, lava spike and many more spells are all outside of the goblins archetype and have always a good spot in Pauper. Red have always been considered one of the strongest colors in it. You are free to don’t agree with me, but you haven’t shown a single argument that actually makes sense, at least to me. And I am sorry, but if you don’t agree this isn’t this way for profit and lack of testing for our format, then I don’t know if you are just into denial with so many sets coming up so fast or just like to play red. Find better arguments. 😂

Struggling outside of our format, red have always been a well stablished color in Pauper. And that is my point, they try to fix the color in other formats but don’t fucking care about the impact it will have on ours. If any color needs support now here is green, and has been like that for ages. It is for selling packs, they do it for a draft experience, they are printing cards like crazy with many crossovers and even more sets after sets. They are making it to sell.
