Sideboard


Time to Combo off in Pauper, draw our deck, and then mill our opponent out! This time with Freed from the Real . For the combo you will need:

You tap your land for 2 blue mana, then untap it with your Arbor Elf that has a Freed from the Real on it. Then you pay 1 blue to untap your Elf and you've net one mana in this cycle. Make enough mana to cast Train of Thought for a bunch - please don't accidentally draw an amount of cards greater than the number of cards in your library - to find our win condition of Dimir Guildmage and proceed to force your opponent to draw through their entire deck!

A card that really helps keep this deck together is Drift of Phantasms . We can transmute it for Freed from the Real of course, but also for some 1 off combo pieces in Krosan Restorer and Verdant Haven . Additionally, if we already have the combo assembled, but have no payoff, we can search for Mental Discipline to churn through our deck for the win.

For game 2 a good sideboard option against removal is Turn Aside . It can protect our creatures, enchantments and lands from being destroyed. Against decks with counters Dispel will help a lot. But the sideboard card we fear the most is Standard Bearer because of its ability to steal our Freed from the Real . This is why we have Electrickery in our sideboard to help combat it and it's also great against token decks.

One unfortunate part of this combo is the sorcery-speed activation of Dimir Guildmage when trying to mill our opponent out. We have to go through drawing our opponent cards one at a time, so if they draw into interaction, they can respond in between draw triggers. Usually this shouldn't stop us though because of retundancy in our deck and our opponent's limited mana.

One great card i haven't included yet because of budjet is Utopia Sprawl , but feel free to update the deck if you have it! With Utopia Sprawl it is possible to win T2 (although highly unlikely)

T1: Forest, Arbor Elf , pass T2: Forest, enchant your untapped forest with Utopia Sprawl and tap the enchanted land for UG. Then spend the G for another Utopia Sprawl on the same Forest as the first one. Now activate Arbor Elf to untap the double enchanted Forest and tap the Forest for UUG. You now have 3UG mana floating in your pool (because of the U left over from the first tapping of the Forest). Spend 2UG for Freed from the Real on Arbor Elf and the remaining U to untap your Elf. Congratulations, you now have assembled the combo and can win the game if you have Train of Thought or Dimir Guildmage !
