do u have a suggestion for a replacement with a similar effect or something else that would be good in its spot?
Uhm, what you put in seems like the best way to go. There's a discussion to be had around whether Brainstorm alongside Ash Barrens and maybe Thought Scour is better than Preordain, or whether Opt is better than Preordain in a prowess deck but it has been a bit too long since I played for me to give any valuable feedback on that.
Well, thank you for the feedback. I did think about Though Scour as a possible resource denial to my opponent and obviously, card draw getting me resources, I think I might test it out and see. Honestly, I should probably cut either the Preordain or opt because they are just doing the same thing, and is just better to run the four of either. Also, thanks for the reassurance at the top because this is my first pauper deck and is greatly appreciated.
You actually seem to be working on it, because I see some changes within it already. (Since yesterday)There are rebound spells in both white and blue that fits the theme, both spells costing 1 so they are actually way better than staggering shock.Theres also a rather new card that is similar to opt, but can put things into the graveyard, and it will obviously be good at putting flashback in the graveyard, building up a storage of spells while improving your draws. At least that's how it could be used, but it will rely on just how many flashbacks you cram into the deck. Can't remember the name but people's been talking about it outside of mtgvault.
I think you are talking about Consider potentially and i did think about it but Im only running the two copies of lava dart maybe four and I'm just not too sure how much I want to throw my own stuff into the graveyard. Although honestly it still might be good. I am just hesitant on the add still but that could just be a bias on my part because I've always just not liked the idea of self-milling stuff.
Yes it's consider.Don't think of it as a selfmill, think of it as a short range fetch card :)Some cards can be pretty hard to judge.I used to be a huge fan of surgical extraction until I ran a damn big project to follow the exact impact of the card.Some cards become mainstream and are damn hard to disprove as bad.For example I'm running a really large project with low mana at the moment, and whenever I meet something with path to exile things get easier.I've always suspected the card of being bad, but it's a whole different ballgame to prove it.
Yea that's totally fair I'll definitely think about putting it in, I appreciate the feedback. Also, you're right looking at it as self-mill wouldn't really be accurate as to why it would be in the deck.
I actually started thinking a lot about path to exile yesterday.It turns out that a few bunch of people had a small period during 2017-2019 where another card was used a lot more. I wonder what drove the meta.
It probably changed because I just looked on scryfall, Path to Exile and Swords to Plowshare are both not legal in pauper.
Sorry, I was talking modern:)
oh ok sorry dog, that is interesting though I am curious what that card was.
Condemn.The games I had recently against modern with my own "near pauper" design were easier against path to exile, so I looked up for alternatives, and condemn has actually seen play in modern, supporting or replacing path to exile, and I thought about what matchups would be the worst against path. The answer, decks with stuff like birds of paradise or noble hierarch. Against those you basically have no effect, you only increase their fetch effect. This made me think. In some matchups path to exile is basically 4 dead cards, so what do decks like death and taxes do to fight ramp ? This might be the key to why death and taxes has some issues with ramp like decks, and I recall that I've never seen a sideboard where I was like "oh, this must be against ramp"
that is super interesting
It's something I'll keep in mind myself, that's for sure.
