Daze when tapped out. Nothing really beats it, aside from maybe Force of Will, but that one is not legal in Pauper, which is mostly the format I play nowadays. But in general, any of the no-mana-required spells (like for example playing snuff out on a …

Pauper UR Delver League #2
I had some more time this weekend, so I recorded another set of videos with UR Delver (and spoilers: somehow, I do well again 🙂 ): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZhSyUPJG-8&list=PLaUFF5spB9YH5sa_hFkDGN3EhPlfRNBoS
This time, I get to show how UR Delver matches up against a bunch of grindy decks, as well as how it matches up against Boggles.

UR Delver League Videos
It turns out it’s pretty easy to record videos, so I recorded a league with UR Delver with some commentary (and spoilers: I do pretty well): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tH6gLCM4YGM&list=PLaUFF5spB9YGH21EPylsxRCZ2Lw4cM_80
I hope this inspires more people to try out UR Delver — I would love to see this deck become a dominant deck of the format.
(Sorry about the poor commentary and audio quality. This is the 1st time I’m making videos of any sort, and I’m definitely not used to explaining things while playing Magic. If the commentary is too terrible, definitely feel free to mute the videos — though I do hope you end up checking out the deck :).)

/u/bboomslang on Your favorite quick competitive games – what replaced chess?
For me myself it is The Duke. It gives just enough chaos to make play fresh every time but retains enough deep strategy to stay skill based. And flipping tiles as pieces are awesome! Sadly don’t get it out enough, due to my wife preferring lighter fare like Red7 (which in itself is a fantastic filler, but definitely not a chess replacement 😉 ). We did get to play quite a bit of The Duke on our last vacation due to that being at the beaches of Mauritius, where wind prohibited card games, and it was tons of fun. At least for me 😉

/u/bboomslang on Brief Pauper Overview.
I actually disagree. Yes, casting counterspells is oodles of fun, and you haven’t really loved until you dazed your opponent’s Wincon, but really, the right way to enjoy it is in a UB creature less control shell with tons of edicts. I nicknamed my monstrosity “f’ you, Bogle’s!” and I don’t think I ever had more fun than when I destroyed each and every hope my opponent had in that one match.

/u/bboomslang on Sideboarding Reference for UR Delver
Your 5-0 streak with that deck didn’t go unnoticed 😉 – really a fun deck and I am about to switch my mono-u delver to your list, because it looks much more like what I love to play, with the additional reach of red in the deck.
Can I ask you to provide sideboarding for Bogles (because Kuldotha Boros and Bogles are the two decks I have to fight most of the time, as that is what my colleague plays)? Or would you change the sideboard slightly if you would have to fight Bogles more often (adding Curfew or Aura Flux maybe?)?
Oh, and I guess the lands are again snow lands, since you still run Skred – the list you link shows them as standard lands.

What banlist do you expect for Wizards’ endorsement of 1v1 Commander?
I am surprised this isn’t generating major hype/discussion.
At one point we had planned to introduce this change as well as league support and a modified banned list today, but later decided to instead introduce it during Amonkhet season. source
There will be 30 life instead of 40, leagues, and a modified banlist for 1v1 Commander. What banlist do you expect? Do you think it will be essentially the same as Duel/Leviathon, or will they take more liberties to distance themselves?
Do you think Emrakul will be banned?
What generals do you expect to be banned?

Churchill zum ersten Mal auf den Tisch gepackt, 3 1/2 Stunden später gewinnt Churchill, nur weil die US und die USSR gleichauf sind und meiner einen Vorteil hat. Und Churchill war einer der Bots.

Holy moly, what a beast of a game. Churchill is great, but man, this was just a training scenario with 3 conferences and it took something like 3.5 hours. And due to the Japanese not surrendering, the bastard Churchill won, because me (Stalin) and the US were tied without me breaking Germany and the US […]

First play of Days of Ire, took the solo variant with easy setting and got a heavy beating by General Zukhov. Hammered my morale into oblivion, even though my people put up a good fight. Game plays kinda like a much more thematically strong pandemic in the coop/solo ruleset. Definitely want to get out the […]
