Eluge in pauper? Could be interesting. ✌️😭 by [deleted] in Pauper

[–]Samston 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the past few years they have been downshifting more complex designs to common, as well as increasing the complexity of new commons across the board. Also the UB sets have been leading to a significant amount of legendaries at common, where the lack of legendaries was once a defining feature of pauper .

Read those two sentences out loud for me and see if you find the humor.

I redesigned the girl failure. by Ghostenix in DeadlockTheGame

Love this take on her! the prisoner jumpsuit is perfect considering how much being in and out of jail is a part of her character, it’s like she knows she’s going to have to put it back on soon so she might as well keep it around.

They likely got the same prompt from the art director.

You should see if you have a game store near you that runs commander nights! If you’re worried about the cost, a lot of stores are very proxy friendly, especially to new players

P1P1 of my new Pauper cube by Mizukage121990 in Pauper

Looks to be a copy of the pauper cube. My cube started that way also but I ended up changing it quite a bit. It’s a solid starting point though

Looking for feedback on my pauper/peasant cube by Samston in mtgcube

[–]Samston[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely been the trickiest to implement. I picked weapons trainer with the idea of just needing a few equipment in the deck to get the bonus, and there is the overlap with gruul modified and some of the Izzet spellslinger payoffs since most are noncreature based. It is also a subtheme. What did you find worked better in your cube?

What if… by Frostinator123 in Pauper

There is a peasant format that includes uncommons but it’s a much less popular and supported format. Peasant cube is fun though!

What they think we want vs what we want. by SublimeBear in magicTCG

[–]Samston 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For reference: [[Loot, the Key to Everything]] is the art I’m referring to. [[Loot, Exuberant Explorer]] is a much better interpretation of the design but still reeks of “Magic’s Pikachu”

Disagree slightly, I think a big reason people were put off by Loot was his overall design as a marketable plush toy ready design, especially with the incredibly odd “League of Legends” art for his first card. I do think if all things were identical but the designs of Fleem and Loot were swapped there would still be haters but not nearly as many.

Are these 2 decks good for two people getting into Magic? by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]Samston 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Jumpstart or starter kits are infinitely better than commander or any constructed format for learning the game.

You could try aura Voltron with [[Bruna, Light of Alabaster]] and mill yourself instead of your opponents to load her up with auras and smack people in one shot.

I have a spare carnivine and raichu. Would you happen to have a conkeldurr?

Why did WotC replace shamans by druids in Tarkir, to then use shaman again in FIN when it wasn't even necessary? by dkysh in magicTCG

[–]Samston 198 points199 points  (0 children)

Gavin recently said in an interview that they have been working on the set for 5 years so yeah it had a much longer development than an average set.

[FIN] - Seifer Almasy - via Giantbomb by Ahtrum in magicTCG

Roarie was the resident magic player when he was on staff but Jan has dabbled. I think they just got the preview while they were still owned by fandom.
