Sideboard


Perfect deck? Probably not but while I am bouncing cards off the table my opponent will probably want to bounce me off the pavement. I am not sure what the meta game is going to look like at my particular card shop just yet and am pretty rusty after not having played in several years. This is my stab at a pauper deck. tron is one of my favorites when I was playing modern so it seems natural I would try tron in pauper. I am certainly open to suggestions and am considering a few things myself.

Mystical Teachings. Great for tutoring all of the different spells I might need from my deck to stop whatever my opponent is doing. I can fetch Dispel or Prohibit if I need an inexpensive answer or Condescend which will also let me scry. Pulse of Murasa will in a pinch help me gain life or grab something I need out of the graveyard. If I have no options in my graveyard I can still target something in an opponents graveyard and stay in the game. Moment's Peace can also keep me alive for a couple turns while I work to get what I need. I can also tutor another Mystical Teachings to have additional chances to find what I need.

Now in the ideal situation I would be looking for Ephemerate or Ghostly Flicker.

With Ephemerate I would play one of the many creatures that has an ETB ability and use Ephemerate on that. It would rebound allowing me to target Mnemonic Wall and essentially bounce it right back into my hand creating a cycle of me constantly using it for whatever I want. I could do it a lot more aggressively with Ghostly Flicker.

the meat of this deck is Stonehorn Dignitary and Mulldrifter and Dinrova Horror. Mull Drifter lets me draw bunches of cards and it is a 2/2 flyer allowing me to chump damage through provided they don't have flyers themselves or anything with reach. If I am feeling really enterprising, I can cast it for its evoke cost. With the sacrifice trigger on the stack I can use ephermerate or Ghostly Flicker to bounce it back permanently also allowing me to draw extra cards. Gift that keeps on giving here.

Stonehorn locks down the field. When used the right way in this deck he can be bounced to never allow an opponent to attack again. This shuts down decks that depend on doing damage with attacking creatures.

Dinrova Horror can get things out of the way. If I have enough mana in play such as during casual games I have been able to use this to wipe the opponent's entire board.

Compulsive Research is great for drawing. I can also use it against an opponent as an alternate win condition by flickering two Mnemonic walls to keep bringing compulsive research back. Bounce around a few times and watch them deck out and lose to mill.

1 Bojaka Bog for graveyard hate. With everything I have to search for it and bounce it I feel like I only need a single copy.

3 copies of Sea Gate and 4 Energy Refractors for fixing my mana how I want.
