The way this deck works is simple:

Step 1: Hide behind your army of nopes.

Step 2: Burn everything else. With fire.

Step 3 (Optional): Pronounce your commander like Sean Connery would. Trusht me, it'sh more fun that way.

So, I came up with this silly idea for a deck and it turns out, it actually works pretty well. My playgroup has been on a Pauper EDH kick lately, and Flying is very strong in the meta. Naturally, given this knowledge, my first thought was, "Crikey! Oy need Spoydahs!" I created this deck specifically to hate on flyers as much as possible. It's only had a few playtests, but it's worked out surprisingly well so far. Since nobody can seem to get damage through to me, and since I usually don't do much attacking, they direct their damage elsewhere until I swoop in late-game and burn up the last bits of everybody's life totals. Turns out, having a commander with fire-breathing is very useful also (A fire-breathing spider? Worst nightmare). So yeah, this deck is a semi-serious Pauper EDH deck with a veritable plethora of arachnids. Have a look, have a chuckle perhaps, and hit me up with any suggestions. I'd love to hear 'em!
