Built a Pauper EDH deck recently centered around gunning down my opponents and their creatures with my army of gunners:

It is really fun to pilot and has its fair share of success, both in 1v1 and multiplayer format.

The mana generating engines usually churn out tons of mana and I'm looking for suggestions for effective mana sinks so that they can be channelled to good use.

The sinks that are currently in the deck include:

Lore Weaver - Really handy as she sits in my command zone and is readily available to net me some card advantage.

Watchful Automaton - Filters the top of our library so we draw into our key cards faster.

Horseshoe Crab et al - Needs to be equip with "weapons" before they can start gunning down opponents.

Look forward to your suggestions and comments please. Upvotes are welcomed too if you like the deck. Cheers!

uhh is this casual cause you can't use Lore Weaver as commander due to it not being a legend.

yugiman The rules for Pauper EDH (PDH) are slightly different from the normal EDH that you're accustomed to.

In a nutshell, PDH allows you to use any Common/Uncommon Creature (no need to be legendary) as your commander and the rest of the deck, comprises of 99 cards of Common rarity.

Here's a compiled list of PDH decks on T/O just in case you're interested in venturing into this format.
