Deck Description

Pretty much overwhelming Aggro Power in Pauper. Thrill of the Hunt and Sigil Blessing assures combat goes in your favor if them some how can match the sizes of your creatures. The little bit of splicing this deck can do is pretty tech, great for pumping guys and slipping attackers through.

Holy crap dude. This is just plain unfair.

You've never played VS a Pauper Storm deck then. As powerful and fast as this deck can lay on the Aggro beats, at least there are answers to it. VS Storm, there are no good answers to it other than either out racing it, CoP: Red and some light counter magic. As you can see, the bluk of the SB is there to fight Storm.

Slivers really kind of are unfair VS a lot of Pauper decks though, it's kind of hard to compete with a tribal deck that can run 8 copies of a lord that comes down on turn 2. I like how the "worst" creature in the deck is "only" a 2/2 for 2, with an ability that might not be relevant. I could change it out, but I need a "bigger" creature, and a bear is always good to have around.

Might Chalice of the Void help in the SB? I mean...if you're talking about ANT storm (not very pauper, but still) then just...play it and laugh. Still, even against a normal storm, that should serve to be a pain in the ass.

No, I'm talking about Pauper Storm. They don't do a lot for the first 2 turns, but then they tend to play a lot of rutuals than drop a lot of goblins via Empty the Warrens then finish up with a massive Grapeshot. Most of the time, all you can do is stall them a turn or so. In just a few turns they go from "losing" to "I win the game".

Storm is probably the best deck for Pauper (because there are no good answers to Storm cards at the common level), but I love my Slivers.
