PDH(WUBRG) - The Rebel Alliance

Pauper EDH*

Alkadron


Maybeboard


I'm pretty proud of this deck.

The goal is to get allies into play and then get more allies into play to make all the "allies" triggers snowball into each other in a cascade of value.

Of course, there are not enough allies in pauper. So we add Changelings.

Changelings are more than just allies. They're also rebels. And so we have the rebel alliance.

  • Step 1 is to get some Allies into play, and a rebel tutor like Defiant Falcon or Amrou Scout . There are some transmute cards to help get one or the other, depending on what's missing from your hand.

  • Step 2 is to use the rebel tutor to put changelings into play from your deck at instant speed, triggering all the EtB effects on your allies. Build up a creature base and go nuts.

The deck obviously has some problems with consistency, but it does it's best, and it usually performs pretty well for a pauper deck.

Since we're in WURBG, I added a suite of support spells from each color to smooth things out:

  • x Burn spells from Red (not the best, but my favorites)
  • Mana Fixing from green (super important)
  • Recursion effects from black ( Unearth hits just about everything in this deck)
  • Some counterspell control in Blue (our mana is usually up for the EoT Rebel Tutors anyways)
  • Flicker effects from white (to save allies and get bonus triggers)

I also tried to color-code things for ease of tutoring. Basic lands are white-bordered. Rebels and allies are foil. Nothing else is foil or white-bordered. It actually speeds things up a lot.

The general is Paragon of the Amesha from Conflux. I altered it to be a Jedi Knight. The less thematically appropriate but more powerful general is Fleshformer , also from Conflux, altered to be a Sith Lord . Lifelink is good, removal and evasion is better.
