*jd = juvenile delinquent...for those too young to know that, which is probably everyone here, except me. :)
Okay, people...I'm just sayin'. I have no vested interest in this, as it's not my deck...though if I played Pauper, I'd probably wish it were. The point is, this is an EXCELLENT (or should I say, "eggselent") example of a budget deck THAT DOESN"T SUCK EGGS...oh, wait...okay, anyway, you get the point, right??? If you like the jd deck, UPVOTE THE DAMN THING!!! And thank you for your support. :D
(Also, not "eggs" strategy...)

The Voice of Reason has spoken, & verily, it is true...DAMN YOU, VOICE OF REASON!!! I was having fun... :'(
1 MILLION likes!!! That's what I say, right, Johnny...??? Right, Johnny...??? 1 MIILLION LIKES!!!
And everyone appears to be fine, if not fettled...et tu, Brute?
If going the Spellfist route, I'd rather do so in an agro Jeskai deck, using Ascendancy...I've never been big on having just 1 win condition.
KJ got jokes, too...
I appreciate that you appreciate the point! As regards the # of forests, plains, etc. in the deck, keep in mind that shock lands (such as Sacred Foundry) have 2 BL types, even though they're not BLs themselves. That being the case, there's actually 3 forests, 3 mountains, & 4 plains in this deck (assuming I counted correctly!). That being said, those #'s are still rather scant for supporting the abilities of the creatures you mentioned, so good catch! This isn't a budget deck, so it may be a reflection of what Gingerlife117 has in hand at the moment...given the expense involved, a lot of us acquire our lands over time.
Very nice! However, Umbra Mystic is off crying in a corner right now. xD
Good point. In that case, even though it costs 1 more, Erebos might be better, as it would be harder to get rid of (so long as it remains an enchantment, so it can't be Pathed...something you could control pretty easily).
Nothing wrong w/ fun casual decks, unless you only ever play competitively...Some alternatives to Ravenous Rats that might help keep you alive long enough to get your game on might be regenerators/deathtouchers, Doomed Traveler (replaces itself), Figure of Destiny/Student of Warfare (quick level-up), Children of Korlis/Goldenglow Moth (get some life back), etc. etc. etc. (These are all assuming your opponent is playing creatures, but your SB could provide all the usual necessary hate.) This deck look like a riot to play, & might even disprove the conventional wisdom about never giving your opponent the choice. :)
I would rather see Choice of Damnations...which is what this deck is all about, anyway! :D
Can't; Pauper is Commons only (Chromatic Star can be included because it was originally issued at Common). Disciple of the Vault, Scrapyard Salvo, & Galvanic Blast provide the win. GJ, +1.
I think a really evil (ie: fun!) thing to do would be to run all landfall creatures except Realm Razor; then, once you have some nice board presence, cast Realm Razor & Bolt it yourself! :D Welcome back to Magic, Noma!
Came across KJ's deck just w/i the last hour; he used Zephyr Scribe where this deck uses Nettle (it has the same "whenever you cast a noncreature spell, untap" ability) & Spidersilk Net as the 0-cost artifact, using the combo to buff Spellfist. So basically, KJ was doing this already when it was in Standard, but as he said, in mono-U.
Congratulations!! :D
Nice! I would at least have a full set of Wind-Scarred Crag, though, plus a set of Battlefield Forge or Evolving Wilds, if possible. +1.
