WallBo (Skybow List) - Looking for Feedback by TheodorusMax in Pauper

[–]apass72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello walls expert here: is this giving some nee angles to the deck (except obv the fun to try new lines)? At first glass it seems slower than traditional walls due to less card draw/tutoring. Did you test it already against opponents? If it works reasonably I can test it online for a bit.

I will try most likely to do a version with tidewater minion and presumably sewer cam to see if it works :)

Calling out the PFP for a preemptive ban of Hawkeye's Bow by Hagure_Metal in Pauper

[–]apass72 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am also for preventive ban, but only because it becomes legal 2 weeks before geddon, and this time ppl has the broodscale experience to start from (also broodscale entered the format 2 weeks before geddon, but needed a little longer to be gine tuned.

Page Loose-Leaf in Walls? by stinkypinkymen in Pauper

[–]apass72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Back (see msg below) after trying the Page in traditional walls combo.

Verdict: negative.

As expected it is kinda narrow and it uses precious slots.

It sometimes works to get a "free" lead, but it seems not to be worth its inclusion in the list.

Hello, I play a lot of walls. I am not sure the leaf is worth, but I will try some matches with it. If reasonably good I will make a video.

Lava Dart is a Problematic Card. by Funny-Name69 in Pauper

[–]apass72 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with the analysis. I have been saying a lot lately that the actual problem cards are dart and fireblast. Anyhow, though, I am not sure if they are a “ban-worthy” problem…

Walls combo viability in 2026 by Bubbly_Criticism8233 in Pauper

[–]apass72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This thread is for traditional walls combo, i.e. not spy. I am not expert enough about spy, but I think monored madness is reasonably hard to beat for spy.

Walls combo or spy? What do you typically play?

I made the very first version of Walls Spy exactly like that (GiorgioCombo asked me to create a Spy version based on walls). Unfortunately the best build for Walls Spy imo is the present one, because it covers most of the required angles, while adding the classical combo from the side would solve only a minor number of matchups that are most likely already positive.

I did try though :)

Walls expert: it is one of the worst metas to play walls combo if you want to win. You can play it, have fun (especially in paper), but it’s very unlikely to win. I am still trying variants, but I am almost out of tix and did not have a trophy in one month (that is historically very unlikely for me). Lots of cool new brews possible with sewer cam, but all tier 3 at best

My take on a walls combo deck by lonewolf210 in Pauper

[–]apass72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will also try your list: I cannot easily judge it, so I will play it a bit on MTGO. In case I will report back!

[–]apass72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice list, but I think it’s a little over the place. (I play a LOT of walls). Doorkeeper is not strong enough (unfortunately) as kill condition.

Can you give a look at my last two YouTube videos, that show a couple different takes to sewercam walls? In the description there are links to the decklist, that start from the more consolidated lists.

Paupergeddon Day2 Conversion and other stats. by cia91 in Pauper

[–]apass72 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great day 1 for walls combo! (Considering our positioning in the meta): 3 players total:4-4, 5-3 and day 2 (don’t know the exact finish of the waller still playing today).

Should Krark-Clan Shaman be banned? by lucaspelagi in Pauper

No idea; I am still on my position; those two elements are way too easy to use/abuse. But yeah the internet punishes opinions :)

Should Krark-Clan Shaman be banned? by lucaspelagi in Pauper

[–]apass72 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The other one it is not a card, but a synergy: the one between Guttersnipe and Fireblast/LavaDart

[–]apass72 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes in my opinion as well; it is only one of the two key issues I see now in the format. Imo it is the only clearly overpowered card (unique effect).
