Sideboard


This is my first attempt to break into Pauper with my own deck design. It's flicker control! This is a combo/control deck that utilities value and stalling the board to slowly edge out a win condition
To prevent out opponents as we slowly crush their spirit and will to play the game out, we play a multitude of cards that slow down out opponents and forward our game plan. Cards that either;
  1. Prevent combat damage Stonehorn DignitaryFrost Lynx

  2. Gain lifegod-pharaoh's familiar

  3. Counter spellsCounterspellDissolve

  4. Kill creaturesFlame SlashLightning Bolt

This is where we slowly win over time.

First you have Mnemonic Wall enter the battlefield, probably protect it with either Counterspell or Ghostly Flicker.

Then either have a Lightning Bolt or Necrogen Censer and using Mnemonic Wall + any other creature/necroen censer + Ghostly Flicker over like 3 turns you win. Plus if you have both Lightning Bolt and Necrogen Censer you win even faster.

Sadly with me moving and being unable to play either paper magic or online magic I am unable to actually test the effectiveness of this deck against proper pauper decks, it might be too slow and that's why no one else play's it. Or maybe I have created the most meta crushing build known to the world. (probably not but I can dream). So until I am able to test this deck properly, do not expect this deck to win anything against even the most jank of decks, this is entirely theoretical. This is more evident when you see the very even split amongst cards, once I am settled into my new place, I may begin looking at building either a paper testing pool for pauper or just getting MTGO for testing purposes. Any suggestions are appreciated, and if you do practice with this deck and find success with it please let me know, I just want to finally build my own pauper deck so I can one day vs my local pauper meta, yes I have one of those, and hopefully win.

This is to add a defence against flying, specifically Delver of Secrets  Flip and to add another win condition should the need arise that's harder to stop than just a simple Disenchant

Split on which variant is better, going to need sever testing to decide which is better, the more defensive Seller of Songbirds or the more aggressive Ghirapur Gearcrafter
