causal teachings and tech

Standard forum

Posted on Jan. 18, 2016, 9:51 p.m. by hawk393

I am building 10 casual pauper decks in a standard format. Each with a kind of theme to help new player understand the game and teach younger players about mana and mana fixing. Right now I have mono::: green-trample white-ally(aggro) blue-flying/prowess black-ally(life drain/ aristocrats)Red-tokens/burn(aggro)And colorless-artifact/eldrazi.

And i am having trouble making the other 4. I want then to be duel color and have a theme... like B/G deathtouch B/W warrior R/G dash and...... ( enter something fun, but a little more complex to teach mana fixing)

Anyway. I was looking for help and wanted to know everyone's thoughts and possible idea changes

Dash would be fun. Maybe Elves as well? A colorless Eldrazi and/or Ingest deck would be interesting. I think for the final deck an Assault Formation deck would allow new players to view the intricacies of the game. Also, if they're on here, links to the decks would be nice for reference.

I will make them all here soon. I wanted to get the final 4 completed. But I dont see an issue with starting early :) and thank you!

While not pauper, I agree an Assault Formation deck would be great for showing new players that you can do some very interesting things in Magic.

Maybe a blue black control deck? Cause that will almost always be a thing.

I was thinking blue white control with enchantments. And does that mean you think I should add rares to "spice things up" or try many variants to show new players the the different techs to the game?

Creating aggro decks and control decks as well as midrange to allow.for.mirror matches as well?
