Pauper Delver

Mono blue delver deck, not uncommon in pauper. I made a few metagame calls that I've been a fan of that help quite a bit in the fair matchups. (Note: I didn't actually realize how low the spell count is in this deck for delver. Guess I don't have any right to complain when it takes forever to flip, but it also makes me consider playing lower spell counts than 20 in other formats)

Maindeck

4 delver of secrets
4 phantasmal bear
4 cloud of faeries
4 spellstutter sprite
4 ninja of the deep hours

2 ponder

16 island



Sideboard

3 dispel
3 coast watcher
2 steel sabotage
2 hydroblast
2 piracy charm
3 echoing truth

Goblins

Just a quick attempt to make goblins work now that we have krenko's command, mogg flunkies, and krenko himself.

Maindeck

4 goblin arsonist

4 goblin fireslinger

4 spikeshot elder

4 krenko's command

4 goblin wardriver

4 mogg flunkies

1 mark of mutiny

2 shrine of burning rage

2 koth of the hammer

4 arc trail

4 pillar of flame

Big Red

A mono red control deck that's pretty unrefined but had some promising results. It doesn't want phoenixes, faithless lootings, or bonfires as I found out pretty quickly. This is where I'm currently at. The sideboard is an unrefined overcompensation for some losses to dungrove elders, wolfir silverhearts, trading post, and sword of war and peace.

Maindeck

4 pillar of flame
4 galvanic blast
4 whipflare
4 wild guess
4 slagstorm
4 koth of the hammer
4 thundermaw hellkite
4 devil's play
4 red sun's zenith

4 hellion crucible
20 mountain

Sideboard

4 wurmcoil engine
4 into the core
4 smelt
3 blasphemous act

Tezzeret

Although lately I've preferred the MUD list to what this deck is trying to do, I have put a lot of time into Tezzeret. It's built upon the theory that the first copy of a unique artifact that you draw has a higher impact than the second, so the list runs a heavy number of fun-ofs and some card selection to help find them in specific situations.

Maindeck

4 Ponder
1 Nihil Spellbomb
1 Contagion Clasp
4 ichor wellspring
2 mycosynth wellspring
1 ratchet bomb
1 spellskite

2 go for the throat
1 mimic vat
1 pristine talisman
1 tumble magnet
1 treasure mage
2 phyrexian metamorph
1 trading post

1 spine of ish sah
3 black sun's zenith

4 darkslick shores
4 drowned catacomb
2 island
5 swamp
4 buried ruin
4 phyrexia's core

Sideboard

Elf Ramp (David Hasselhoof)

A streamlined version of the elf deck that made waves at an scg open in August. I cut the shitty cards like village bellringer and made the mana better by staying mono green. I cut the middleman that is genesis wave by jamming the full set of hoofs in its place, and made the delver matchup actually manageable with caverns,  a set of ezuris, and the reasonable beatdown plan that he entails.

Maindeck

4 llanowar elf

4 arbor elf

4 birds of paradise

4 elvish archdruid

4 elvish visionary

4 viridian emissary

4 ezuri, renegade leader

1 revenge of the hunted

1 stingerfling spider

1 sword of feast and famine

2 sword of war and peace

1 viridian corrupter

1 wolfir silverheart

MUD (Mono Brown Control)

A trading post engine deck, where you set up quick locks and hay-makers rather than trying to control the board with removal or tezzeret. The manabase allows the deck to use all of its mana every turn, even when you have upwards of ~15 mana from lotuses and metamorphed lotuses.

Maindeck

2 mox opal

4 dispatch

4 ichor wellspring

1 mycosynth wellspring

4 sphere of the suns

2 ghost quarter

sideboard

1 contagion engine

Illusions

The most competitive deck I play on stream in my opinion. I don't suggest playing it if you're inexperienced with delver variants because you get severely punished for misplays with this deck.

4 lord of the unreal

1 sleep

1 kraken hatchling

2 mana leak
