![]() ![]() Red Elemental Blast – Don’t like losing to blue decks? Here is the solution! I don’t think Shaman is the best plan in the world, but it can steal some games. It does kill their artifact lands and keep them off tokens which is a big part of their game plan. Gorilla Shaman – Say no to our robot overlords! I have also seen Shaman brought in to combat the Rakdos Burn decks. These are my opinions.įiery Cannonade – An extra board wipe just in case.īlue Elemental Blast and Hydroblast – Don’t like losing to red decks? Here you go! You aren’t as low to the ground as the Faeries archetype and need a good amount of mana to function. I will say that while 22 lands is a high count, you are a mana hungry control deck. You don’t want many come into play tapped lands because you don’t want to be slow. They also help by being shuffle effects for Brainstorm. You have 3 Evolving Wilds and 3 Ash Barrens to help with mana fixing. The manabase isn’t anything to special and it shouldn’t be. ![]() Moving forward I think I would cut this card personally. It costs a lot, but it also does a good bit as well. Hypothesizzle – I never would have thought I’d see this played. Do remember, this does not hit your Commodores because they are Pirates. Lightning Bolt and Skred – 2 of the best removal spells in the format and it should be no surprise they make an appearance here.įiery Cannonade – Every control decks need a board wipe and this is one of the best. This isn’t the greatest strategy ever, but it is certainly fun for someone. This is similar to the Elixir of Immortality strategies we saw years ago. When the game has gone extremely late and your opponent is completely out of gas but you are about to run out of cards, you can essentially reset your game plan and win by decking them or replaying your Commodores. Depending on the meta you might want less copies in your deck but I don’t think you would ever want 4 unless special circumstances present themselves.įrantic Inventory – Has good synergy with Izzet Charm s looting effect and just a good way to draw a lot of cards overall.Ĭlear the Mind – Here is your other way to win the game. It can often be a 2 for 1 in many different ways and I love seeing 3 copies. ![]() I like the ratio here.įire // Ice – One of my favorite cards ever. However, I still think it has the potential to be pretty powerful.īrainstorm and Preordain – You have a few ways to shuffle so Brainstorm is a fine 2 of, while Preordain is great at helping you make the game go late. It isn’t the best as it doesn’t counter creatures, it only deals 2 damage to a creature and it isn’t pure card advantage as its a looting effect. ![]() Izzet Charm – I was pretty happy to see this make it into the Pauper format and I am happy to see it getting some play. Keep in mind, this does not apply to every blue deck.Įxclude – It is a little slow for the meta of today, but it does draw a card, giving you a bit card advantage so you can get ahead of your opponent. It also makes you the Monarch, giving you card advantage in the process.Ĭounterspell – If you are a blue control deck that can support the mana cost easily, you should be playing 4 copies of this card. It is easy to remove since it only has 2 toughness, but it hits hard and can end the game quickly. I still hate this card but I digress.Ĭrimson Fleet Commodore – Here is your main win condition of the deck. Augur of Bolas – Great blocker and you play a ton of spells to find so it can end up being card advantage as well. ![]()
