Absolutely! Mirage and Portal are undefeated imo.
I also like Saga and Masques basics a lot

Finally finished my Dreadnought play-set and took them straight into a 4-0 run in the NYC weeklies

🌊🌊 Replenish
🌊❌🌊 Landstill
🌊🌊 RG Goblins
🌊🌊 Burn

G2 vs Burn I mulled to 4 on the draw. I played through two Overloads in one turn, and still had a Daze for Fireblast.
Deck is too strong πŸ™ƒ

3-0 / 6-0 tonight with Jund Wildfire.
I’ve gone 2-0 into 2-1 with Jund so many times that I was nervous as hell in the last game. Finally closed one out 😭

Another 3-0 at the Manhattan weekly with the best deck!
Mulled to 4 in two games that I won.
I played too loose in my last round, missing Wellwisher activations and making a bad attack. Sometimes I play sloppy when Im ahead. Still a lot to work on!

Also, NYC’s next big tournament is Sept 6th. It would be hype to have some upstate players there if any of y’all can make it! I know our scenes have many miles between, but it’s awesome to see Pauper growing so much in NY. Would love for us to be able to have a USA β€˜geddon-size event someday in NY

Hell yeah, nice results!! πŸ‘πŸ‘ Were you on Mono Green or Multicolor Elves?
Do y’all have the next big upstate tournament scheduled yet? I’m gonna make it up there for one eventually. Just gotta make a weekend trip out of it.

Elves continues to perform. I love this deck and it’s been great into the NYC meta. Also, importantly, green cards = cool cards πŸ’š

3-0d the Manhattan Pauper weekly last Tuesday.
I can remember years of showing up for 4-8 player weeklies…we had 34 for Pauper this time! So huge! Love to see the format growing. Come play if you’re in NYC, just don’t use this terrible sideboard! πŸ˜‚

3-0 at the Brooklyn Pauper Weekly with White Weenie.
Caw Gate hasn’t been working so well lately, so I thought WW was worth trying again. Cool creatures, damage prevention, alpha strikes, what more do you want?

3-0 at the Manhattan Pauper weekly. Elves is the only deck I’ve managed to 3-0 with all season. It’s such a great deck. Just gotta keep dodging Pinger Burn 🀞

Earthquake has won me games that I otherwise would have had no way to win. Sometimes you just need a Fireball. Earthquake is better than a second Pyroclasm in the main since it’s still a live card in all matchups

Back-to-back 3-0s in the Pauper weeklies with Elves. (Let’s not talk about what happened in the NYC Pauper Open)

One thing I like about Elves, you pair into your bad matchups and just win anyway. Deck rules.

It’s real as hell when Lan and friends are piloting it.

Two 6-3s and a 7-2 at Lobstercon, which I think made it one of the best performing decks on win rate.

Lan also won our Win-a-Mox tournament with it last year.

Seems really strong to me

G3. SWB played a Turn 3 Attunement, confirming (in game three) that I’m playing against Lan D Hoath πŸ’€

Have you ever played against three different decks in one round?

Had to Tide / Chain combo him twice to win this one.

I feel like a piloted all my games a little messy, but Tide took the wheel 🌊

G2. I sideboard as if I was playing against Terrageddon.

I got to land an early Tide / Chain combo and SWB scooped quickly.

Bumbling my way through Round 3 vs @swbmtg.bsky.social

G1. Kept a hand I thought would be okay vs 12/12 (which I saw him playing in warm ups...fell for the decoy deck). Saw basic Plains and thought I could get away with a Standstill. Instantly punished by a Treetop Village followed by a Wasteland

Haven’t 3-0’d a weekly since March. Been getting whooped in the finals every time πŸ™ƒ

Calls come in Vs Goblins and most other go-wide decks. Also in against decks with Swords to Plowshares and sometimes Burn depending on vibes. Most of the time that means cutting some land destruction and maybe Spheres. Basically Call is you switching from midrange/prison to full on midrange
