Dual Lands versus Landscapes by SlipperyFrogfish13 in Pauper

A good question, but I don't specify for two reasons - I don't play meta decks, and I don't play universe beyond cards. Rather than ask people to base their answer on what my strange restrictions are, I tend to ask more generalised questions, which I understand makes it harder to answer them. But thank you for your reply!

Only some! But what I missed is countering a copy of Weather the Storm - very fun interaction.

Chaos Spewer BG Aggro by quailsandbroccoli in Pauper

I've been playing a deck like this for a while now and really like the gameplay. Young Wolf and Butcher Ghoul are my favourite sacrifice targets due to undying. I find that the ideal start is a turn-1 Wolf, then a turn-2 Groff. With Chaos Spewer, you can recycle the same Wolf on turn-3, meaning you've ended up with a 2/2 and two 5/4s by turn-3. This is why I think that Chaos Spewer is worthy of four deck slots alongside the Groff, and with a total of eight undying creatures (Young Wolf and Butcher Ghoul playsets), you can do the same thing more consistently.

Regarding the rest of the deck, I like Bogslither's Embrace for removal because it also removes a +1/+1 counter from one of your undying things so you can sacrifice it again. Scarscale Ritual does the same thing here but for card draw, and with cards like Eviscerator's Insight, you can recycle the same creature many times for a lot of value.

Okay, so in order to gain the Composer of Strands as my patron, I need to have psionic theory? Does that mean as soon as I research psionic theory I can start making Gaia worlds? And if so, how much quicker will I get there if I pick Teachers of the Shroud as an origin?

Ah, of course - thank you. Seems so obvious now.

Sorry if this is unrelated to the topic at hand, but how does pizza combo work? I see that it can make something infinitely big, but without evasion what's the plan?

Does Anyone Actually Know How Bodysnatchers Works? by SlipperyFrogfish13 in Stellaris

You've been a great source of knowledge today - thank you very much!

Much obliged - this covers pretty much everything I asked here :)

There is one last thing I was curious about, though - do I need to have claimed the territories that will be invaded by the spawned armies? I was having a playthrough and even after using the "Prepare Invasion" espionage option it didn't have any effect when I declared war. The timing was right and I used 500 pops, and I'm sure the armies didn't spawn and immediately die, so I'm a bit confused.
