- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- The Semi-Finals match for the Pauper Tournament in which all my subscribers voted on and chose which deck I would play, which ended up being U/W Caw Gates. Please keep in mind that neither one of us are professionals and are prone to misplays and such. With that in mind, enjoy! (Will post Finals Championship match in a few days)

Hey!! Just remember to use the second function of the blood fountain!
Brings two creatures from the graveyard to hand, and would definitely put them into play at zero cost with affinity. Its good way to gain control of the battlefield again!!✌😎
Great point! Thanks for the observation and feedback!
I have altered the deck since our game so im ready for a rematch 💪
Awesome! I'll be ready for the rematch! By the way did you hear what I had mentioned about for future reference you can animate one of your indestructible artifact lands with Kenku Artificer! A 3/3 Colorless Indestructible Flying Creature is a pretty solid threat!
@GoldLotusPauperMTG yes I did, thanks! I did not even think about it 😅
It's okay, I was thinking and wondering why you didn't during the match and thought it was part of some strategy, then I realized I think she didn't know you could. It's okay now you know and now you can move forward and play the deck even better!
If Dust to dust doesn't have 2 selected targets available it is fizzled, isn't it? at 16:30
Cool, nice to see some paper pauper! If you're willing, could you share the mana symbol cut out for the gates?
A lot of people actually asked me about that! It's super simple actually! All those are, are the mana boxes from basic lands! They're nice and convenient and they fit inside my dice container! They work excellent for what I use them for.
@@GoldLotusPauperMTG Great idea!, why did I never think of that.
Because sometimes we try to overthink even the simplistic of things! I do it all the time! Glad you found it useful!
Why not kenku on dual land?
She didn't realize you could do that. If you watch my Tournament review video I say in the video that she must not have realized you could do that, if she had she could have defended against the Guardian of the Guildpact. It wasn't a misplay just not the optimized one. We're not pros or anything
Rooting for Grixis Affinity! 💧💀🔥🤖
Grixis Affinity is a hell of a deck!
I need to look at my collection to see if I have everything for Caw Gates. I know I need a playset of Sacred Cat.
It's worth the build, It's a strong option in the format when you aren't sure of the meta. Solid match ups against everything all around!
@@GoldLotusPauperMTG It sure is. :) I've been playing some variant of it for over two years now and it's still my favorite deck in the format. If y'all ever find yourselves in the PNW we'd love to jam some games.
If you come to sweden i wanna play against you!
Haha deal! I'll add it to my bucket list of places to play Magic!
Nobody plays grixis affinity anymore
That couldn't be further from the truth lol. At the last Paupergeddon, the biggest Pauper tournament in the world Grixis Affinity placed 3 spots in the Top 8 out of a field of more than 480+ players. Not to mention it still is more consistent and the better of the two Affinity Decks. Ask any experienced and veteran Pauper player who actually follows tournament results and the ever shifting format meta and they'll confirm Grixis is still the best.
whats your point?
