      Sorry, but your bitly link is dead.
      Also, I really hope to see more pauper from you guys and Andrea. I play UR skred aswell, and I'm really interested if there are adaptions due to the MH3 releases, glee combo and ponza being a huge thing again 👀.
      Keep up the good work, your and Mengus Workshop are awesome channels!

    I think my favorite part about Pauper is that the cards veer wildly between "draft chaff" and "legacy staples". And sometimes it's the draft chaff that kicks your butt.

      ​@@ASleath One such instance of draft chaff coming in clutch was at Paupergeddon this past weekend! I believe it was Contaminated Ground? It's 1B and turns enchanted land into a Swamp, and it absolutely won the whole tournament for a Madness player!
      He brought it in as a sideboard card to deal with a lot of the format's big land threats like Forest-based ramp, Basilisk Gate, and Tron.

      @ASleath 3 месяца назад +3

      @@Tselel that's pretty cool, and I get what you're saying. I think I assumed the statement about draft chaff was along the lines of other comments where people say the creatures are 'bad' in Pauper, which is my bad. I need to read up on Paupergeddon, I have heard the community talking about how cool it was but haven't looked at results yet.

    This is a VERY minor thing. I remember Mengu giving great advice on waiting for the right moment to play Experimental Synthesizer. You don't really want to play it too early in case you brick. No harm in waiting until turn 3 or 4. Thoralf played it a little soon in my humble opinion. Little things like that is what makes MTG so great

    • @bluerendar2194
      @bluerendar2194 3 месяца назад +20

      It's different for the artifacts deck in such a tempo-oriented matchup. The Myr enforcer in hand and the Myr enforcers off the reckless wouldn't have been castable the turns they were without that Synth in play. It's nice to get value off of it, but the matchup is too fast for value to really matter: see how both games end with cards in hand and no mana left unspent. The chance to get a land is important too as Thoralf misses land drop #4 later.
