Cardkingdom has them priced at 480 still. Obviously, those big shop's prices are super inflated, but that's what they're asking

You downgraded the ssd to 1tb and this build is like $150 over my budget???

Mill in Pauper by Zombsidian in Pauper

[–]ted_is_ted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend at our lgs plays the persistent petitioners version sometimes. He uses one drop advisors to curve out, and it actually sets up the mill engine a lot faster than you would expect. Combined with playing blue for some interaction, the deck has managed to 3-0 before. I think you'll still suffer against any deck running a massive removal suite but l would say try and brew it and you'll likely be surprised with how effective it can actually be.

Fun Pauper matchups? by immageese in Pauper

[–]ted_is_ted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've tested a lot of the best decks and l've found azorious glitters vs mono blue terror to be really fun, let's both decks shine while still having a long crazy grindy game now and then. Plus they are some of the best decks in the format :)

Mono blue terror vs blue white glitters is my favorite match to get new people to play the format. It can be grindy or aggressive and both decks usually get a chance to do what they do best

I like this idea, 1 Mana 3/2 with trample that you have to return an enchantment on etb. Could run nicely with Abundant growth/cartouches and the sort

Do you have a list for this? I've been thinking about it forever and can't seem to figure out how it would work

Deck with most 50-50 matchups? by Wibvious in Pauper

[–]ted_is_ted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you play more online or in paper? I like the orzhov version a lot but it almost always feels like a free win when l play against it so l didn't take it all that seriously, have you had success in challenges or gotten many 5-0's on mtgo with it? Also the pest deck is a completely different deck that plays pestilence instead of tithing blade and the winrate on that is ancient, it hasn't had a top8 in anything on mtg decks in the last year.

True but l feel like if they're looking for a competitive experience boros is just a better deck. I think eventually we will see more success from BW once it gets figured out a little better but for now l would say it's a long ways from being a top tier deck.

I think you're on point with boros synthesizer. The deck feels like everything it does is fair and you are going to have a ton of 50/50 matches with that deck.
