There are Standard Dailies and Pauper Dailies yes. No such thing as Standard Pauper though.

There are player run events, they are not as convenient, not automated(you need to manually make games with your opponent as well as report scores), and have very weak prize support.

Find player run events of all sorts of formats here http://community.wizards.com/go/forum/view/75846/135082/Magic_Online_Player_Run_Events

Here is a standard pauper event happening tonight: 8:30 eastern, 5:30 pacific.

http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75846/29918095/SPDC_19.24_-_Thursday,_May_9_-_Sponsored_by_PDCMagic.com

I have played in these before, when I was bored, and they are a bit of fun for free, but they don't have the same appeal to me that regular magic online events have.

I've been testing BUG with deadbridge chant to grind out the midrangey green decks. It's alright but very slow against aggro. Another early body helps, I'd almost say fog bank is the card if it wasn't so bad against wolf run.

Wolf-run isn't that good against BUG, you should try Cyclonic Rift if you can hit 6 mana consistently, that card's pretty an instant speed hoser against Wolf-run decks. I don't know how your BUG is built.

Jund has issues beating, cause it rapes Sire lines (Sire trigger on the stack, throw everything back into your hand, have fun playing off the top with nothing but lands).

I don't think you need to grind out the Green decks depending on the build. Not sure what exactly is causing your BUG issues.

how the hell did i get first? gleam of battle ended up being insane, never saw the reckoner..combat tricks all day and opponents being mana screwed.

edit: only memorable play was i was behind on board, and an opponent played 3 of the 3/3 scavange reach guys in a row..when i top decked lightning. i didn't even realize i had an out until i saw it, jesus christ.

That is one hell of a stacked deck, holy crap. Reckoner, advent, boros/selesnya charms, unflinching courage, etc.

never bought a fat pack before, decided on a whim after standard at the local place to buy one. cracked a foil resurgence. would a big card shop trade past its cash value--im not sure how to value it when SCG is out of them in foil even.

I finally tweaked my deck so it doesn't suck balls (or at least not too badly), although it has nothing to do with discard anymore.

Talrand with ciphers = lol. By the time I play him I have ~3 ciphers already on a creature so drakes up the ass. 2 turns later I'm making 5+ drakes per turn easily. A lot safer when I can put them on invisible stalker over dimir infiltrator for the hexproof but overall still pretty safe with the countersquall to keep those alive.

Also Hidden Strings is ridiculous. You pretty much get to play your entire mana pool twice per turn with 2 of them out. You can play your sorceries, then attack and you're back to full mana for counter spells. If you get all 4 of them out, you get to untap or tap 8 permanents each time you attack, so pretty much all your mana + vigilance for your creatures.


Supreme Verdict of course is a pain and obliterates this but then again when does it not?

+ Show Spoiler +


Creatures :
4x Dimir Infiltrator
4x Invisible Stalkers
3x Talrand, Sky Summoner

Instants :
4x Vapor Snag
3x Undermine
3x Countersquall
3x Clutch of the Undercity (I know it's not the best spell but bouncing planeswalkers + 3 damage is a nice backup)

Sorcery :
4x Ponder
4x Hands of Binding
4x Hidden Strings
4x Last Thoughts (not a great draw card normally but cipher + unblockable + talrand)


Lands : (removed the dimir guildgates because not enough black and come into play tapped not worth it).
4x Drowned Catacombs
2x Watery Grave
10x Islands
4x Swamps


P.S : Sorry for spamming your thread with my shitty friendly game decks but hey it's more fun when you can build different decks and not just tournament caliber decks like you have to online.



Also pumped for pro tour next weekend! GP is not watchable for me without the sideboard showing cards lol...

Here's a draw I got, pretty much perfect :
+ Show Spoiler +

Turn 1 land + vapor snag his arbor elf
Turn 2 land + invis stalker
Turn 3 land + hidden strings (untap the 2 lands used to play it) + hidden strings (same) + ponder + hands of binding (tap his 2 creatures). Attack : back to full mana. Had an undermine in my hands.

Was pretty rofl. Went pretty smoothly after that but didn't keep the perfect run for talrand on turn 4... oh well

Played a triple DGM draft. What a stupid stupid format. Should've maybe looked at all the DGM cards and enter some of the other draft types.

Still, got a Ral Zarek Just yesterday I built an Izzet deck, but not sure if I need it in there.

So a friend of mine went to an FNM and went to a PTQ the next day, got 2nd at the FNM for 14 packs and 11th at the PTQ for another 11 packs, cracked 3 Voices, 1 Ral Zarek, some other mythics and a bunch of other playables.

Speaking of Voice, it's up to $40 on SCG right now, and doesn't look to be going down anytime soon. We've yet to see it win a major event though it's being played a ton on SCG's circuit in both main and side board. I'd speculate on Voice dropping in price soon though as more supply enters the market to meet the demand for it.

Its going to go down. Lily was like 60-70 before it dropped and this card isn't Lily.

If anybody's watching the SCG open right now, please disregard everything Todd Anderson says regarding draft advice. This is some cringeworthy analysis.

I think the closest comparison would be Bonfire, another small set mythic.

I don't have the slightest clue how I won with this pool. I literally just picked stuff I thought was cool and mana fixing. The deck is a shambles. Just lucky with bad opponents in the pool perhaps?

How are you not playing Dragonshift, or the green Gatekeepers with 7 gates?

I'd be curious to know what else you left in your sideboard.

why don't lands show up correctly in magic work station, and some editions it lists as "DDK"?
