The rock deck in Pauper. This version is not converted to pauper but appling the original concept.
A regular Rock deck consists of :
- 4 baloth or life gaining creatures
- 4 blastotherms
- 4 board sweaper
- 4 anti creatures spells
- 4 walls mana roots or trelis
- 4 draw walls
- 4 main discard spells
- 2 suportive discard spells
- 2 graveyad return cards like recurring nightmare.
- 4 supportive lands, tree top vilage
- 2 Yavimaya elder or krosan tusker
- 2 Deranged Hermit
- 1 large creature finisher
- 2 Call of the herd
- 1 Volrath stronghold
Tools box :
- 1 Squee goblin nabob
- 4 survival of the fittest
How I implemented you can do other forms...
Packmate - wall of blossoms
Deranged Hermit -
usely the deck relly heavy on hermit since its large, weeny and beater... , in Pauper we don't have cards like that the best you can get is a high quality beater like cave stomper.
The logic is simple we have a lot of trash that lather is convertered to high quality spells throw tortured existence or recurring nightmare in original. What is high quality late game is not in earlier game. Think this concept is interesting, a bit like a football team, they make transitions.
Mainly there are 2 versions of The Rock, the Tool Box, and the transitional Rock which is this one. Made few attempts on the Tool Box on the other version, end up width kind of hybrid width card advantages, hard to tell if the enviorment was inspired in that play test, but one thing is certain its the style most Pauper decks adopt now "hybrid card adavantage". It's hard to tell because people can reach the same conclusions, in similar enviorments.
Updates
-
Swine master could work as our Derendged Hermit it build creatures which turn, and is very low cost.
-
Vine trelis vs nightshade dryd, think nightshade a litle better since it protects vs a earlier large creature, and allow to pack more anti-creature while maintain mana and color acceleration.
-
Add the squeeb goblin nabob as Abzan
-
We have a couple of ninjas that could work : coiling stalker, azra smokeshaper, shadow-waker, new moon, okina.
