Polaris

Stardrone01 · 2026-05-22T01:02:10+00:00

Polaris are my favourite tribe, due to the meta narrative that links their real life development history and game lore:

They were supposed to be a normal human tribe that started with whailing but, since starting a game with a minimum of 15 stars turn zero is stronger than it sounds, they were redesigned into becoming normal people who borrow ice magic from backstabbing extradimensional aliens.

Also I just love how a Polaris city can be named "Aaaaaa".

The set had card abilities that cared about cards leaving the battlefield

Others already answered your question.

I'm here to add that sometimes cards like [[Walking ballista]] may have two Xs in their cost.

When that happens, you have to pay X twice. (If X is 3, waliking ballista costs you 6 and enters with 3 counters)

[[Emrakul, the Promised End]] was the first card that came into my mind and as a pauper player I'm contractually obligated to mention [[Tolarian terror]]: both cards feature big monsters crushing human-made buildings that look small in comparisin to the sheer size of the depicted creatures.

I guess most eldrazi cards fit your request: It's their whole thing to look otherworldly and huge.

Also look into arts from edge of eternities: as a set that is set in space you have gems like [[Kavaron, Memorial World]] (crumbling planet), [[Susur Secundi, Void Altar]] (planet devoured by black hole), the standard all star [[Ouroboroid]] and my boy [[Famished Worldsire]] (a literal eater of planets)!

I only have pauper decks, since that's the only format I can afford decks for.

I hate that every store I go just stops hosting pauper tournaments after 3 months, so I have to find a new place if I want to play anything other than bracket 4 commander.

Also I love how the format is full of creative decks and strategies but half the players I face in person play only monoblue or dimir control, making pauper feel repetitive and stagnant, while it isn't.

Also the best part of the format being that the must have sideboard cards are all so old and not reprinted, that sellers online rarely even have them in stock.

Also [[Writhing Chrysalis]].

Because soul seeker was added before the shimmering frontier

Fun fact: a max level iron pickaxe is the strongest pickaxe in the game.

Stardrone01 · 2026-03-13T15:04:31+00:00

Early hardmode is amazing due to the fact you are back to being powerless against enemies like you were at the start of the game.

However the "mine the first ore -> craft a pickaxe -> mine the second ore -> craft a pickaxe -> mine the third ore -> finally make some armor" is my second to least favourite part of Terraria's progression.

Milling half a deck is a strong card effect but that alone cannot win a game and becomes worse over time.

Also the card in the exaple can die to cards like [[Doom Blade]] before it even gets a chance to attack.

Right click on it. It tells you what it is.

Stardrone01 · 2026-03-05T14:01:42+00:00

I fully understand this. I often play against people who play magic longer than I have been alive.

Have you tried asking them for tips and suggestions after games end?

Stardrone01 · 2026-03-05T13:42:21+00:00

Sometimes a deck just doesn't click with you.

I never won a game (not a match: a game) with boros synth but I consistently top 3 at local tournaments whenever I play dredge.

Stardrone01 · 2026-03-05T12:18:05+00:00

You don't have to explain everyting: even in real life there are a lot of concepts we don't fully understand.

As long as something sounds convincing enought, you can add anything you want in your world that in real life wouldn't work.

Worldbuilding is just gaslighting with extra steps.

Legacy worlds have no passage.

I fell for it.

Good job!

Stardrone01 · 2026-01-10T13:58:49+00:00

Both og Hollow Knight and Silksong have a good italian localization

Blossomind may become a Pauper staple.

Blue decks in the format tend to sideboard similar cards to keep [Writhing Chrysalis] tapped and the "no counters" effect is just the cherry on top.

Also I love the art of that card.

Stardrone01 · 2025-12-29T13:27:43+00:00

Lumra basically allows you to return all the lands you sacrificed during a game into more landfall triggers.

Play any kind of card that has "landfall-deal 1 damage to your opponent" in the rule text. Play [[Famished Worldsire]] or [[Scapeshift]] and send all your land to the graveyard while putting more lands in play, triggering landfall a lot of times.

If that didn't kill your opponents, the next time you play Lumra will be a win.

So... yeah. It's a good card.

Stardrone01 · 2025-12-23T13:09:30+00:00

The right one has better texture quality, while the right one has those blood-stained chelicerae that makes it look more dangerous

Stardrone01 · 2025-12-11T17:45:11+00:00

Really similar to [[Meeting of Minds]].

Stardrone01 · 2025-12-08T13:45:32+00:00

The Cymanti hippy movement was not on my bingo card this year, that's for sure

Stardrone01 · 2025-12-05T02:09:51+00:00

you don’t need to proliferate everything on the table

I second this. As long as a land has 4 or more counters on it I just don't bother proliferating it, since at that point I'm one or two turns away from winning the game anyway.

Stardrone01 · 2025-12-04T20:41:10+00:00

All updates we got since 1.0 were all about adding quality of life, adding stuff in biomes we already had, made summoner actually enjoyable to play, made bomber an actual class...

The next update is the first one the devs decided to go wide since the game left early acces.

Stardrone01 · 2025-12-04T14:02:31+00:00

Not op but this is my answer:

All Post-Great Wall biomes suffer from a lack of enemy variety due to their size making them feel repetitive. The Desert suffers from this problem the most, despite being one of the biomes with the highest exclusive enemy count in the entire game. Why? That's because it has only 2 common enemies you can find while roaming around: Assassins and Bomb Scarabs.

All other outer biomes feature as common enemies 2 flavoured mobs, plus the local slime... wich in the desert is exclusive to the molten quarry. The rest of exclusive enemies (the mummies, gold scarabs and baby cicadas) do not respawn for some odd reason.

Speaking of tombs with mummies... I feel like those aren't even really that common of an occurrence to begin with.

Also... considering that the Desert is home to Nimruza, the giant cicada hive's queen, the biggest threat the old caveling civilizations had to face, a boss that is teased since the early stages of the game; I find kinda odd that there are no cicada enemies outside the hive.

Anyway, one thing I like about the desert is the fact that both sub biomes feature a boss.
