Pauper: What are some good Archetypes

Pauper forum

Posted on May 24, 2016, 4:36 p.m. by JANKYARD_DOG

So my LGS just started having a Pauper day and I thought of getting into it. Not to hard considering its all commons, but I'd like a firm place to start rather than going through 10,000+ cards trying to figure it out. So, from those of you that have pauper experience, what are some good Archetypes for pauper? Any other tips/tricks/hints you can offer would be great too. I already looked up the ban list, which seems a bit short, but only one card on there I own so don't have to worry much.

That's a great place to start. IMHO Stompy is the best in an unknown field.

Affinity is my deck of choice though Angler Delver is also pretty sweet.

I was kind of thinking 'Big Green Mean Machine'. I'm not sure... but when I hear affinity I see $$$$. Guessing its not cheap. Other's I was debating was tribal types like goblins, elves, and/or warriors, not sure how that would go considering all commons. Will look at the link here in a bit.

As Someone who owns over 8 pauper decks ( Affinity, Elves, Angler Delver, Burn, Rug Tron, Trinkets, MBC, and One Land Spy) I can tell that affinity is really strong in the current meta game and has many really favorable game one match-ups

The deck costs about 50-60$ to build

My favorite archetypes so far are Domain Zoo and Kuldotha Boros :)
