Deck discussion for Talrand Cheep Control

This isn't a pauper deck... Do you mean budget deck, as in cheaper cards? Pauper specifically means your deck only has common rarity cards in it.

That being said, I like the deck. Talrand is a sweet commander.

If all of the cards have a version that was printed in Common then I see no reason why it couldn't be a Pauper Commander deck.

You would be correct. If the card was printed as common, it counts as Pauper. Thing is, Temple of the False God, Reliquary Tower, Myriad Landscape, and Elixir of Immortality have never seen common printings. So, you could call this a "Peasant EDH". As for strategy, while I do enjoy this idea of a "Draw Go Beat down", and I say you built this pretty solidly, covered a lot of chinks in your armor. Well done. So, you lose to heavy burn strategies and Landfall Token decks that out race your creature game because they outpace your mana ramp; seeing as you don't have any mana ramp. With something like Vorinclex or Choke, it doesn't end well for you. Another thing is while yes, you have a lot of draw spells, you have no permanent card advantage, so Sire of Insanity and Jin-Gitaxias are also bad news. To combat this, you're gonna have to add mana ramp and card draw.

yes, and by definition, your commander must be legendary, and I am not aware of any legendary common cards.

I'm not looking for a reason to cast shade here so forgive me if it seems that way but in Pauper Commander it's an Uncommon card as Commander.
