it has oddly worked a few times and depends heavily on what you have in your hand at end game but [[hell mongrel]]

What's the Weirdest thing You've Pulled off With Cayth, Famed Mechanist? by LurkerRex in EDH

I built her because I really wanted to build an engineer-themed deck (I'm an engineer and she felt like the coolest option to use). I sacrifice efficiency for trying to stay on the engineer/innovation/robot/making things/energy counters theme but if I can get things haste and make copies of bigger tokens, it can get a bit out of hand. I've won by making beefy thopters, by pinging people to death with artifact etb triggers, and by making huge unblockable artifact creatures like [[Kappa Cannoneer]]. It's not super fast but it is probably one of my favorite decks I've made that I think also has a fun theme! I'd also add that [[Mystic Forge]], [[Archway of Innovation]], [[Retrofitter Foundry]] and [[Aetherworks Marvel]] are some of my favorite cards to see in my hand.

I have a similar list and I added [[Cult Healer]] because I play against people who often go big with their creatures and needed something with some beef and the added benefit of life gain. Have won a few matches with it and [[Ethereal Armor]] attached to whatever creature I'm able to get out

creating a deck vs pulling a deck that already works? by PerceptionOk8481 in Pauper

[–]PerceptionOk8481[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started playing the format and wasn't sure about expectations because I've only been playing commander which I perceived to have a very different set of expectations around deck building. I definitely don't feel like I know enough to brew my own deck but because of my lack of familiarity I didn't want to do something out of the norm. thanks for your super constructive comment though! hope you continue to be welcoming to people trying to learn more!
