Hi, I'm SirFailo, Pauper lover on MTGO (and sometimes in paper, in Italy).

Here you'll find:
- Challenge and League results, with the list and what I got wrong
- deck changes and the reasoning
- sideboard notes

Commons only. Mistakes included.

@Wilecoyoteuk nice, it has apparently a good match against red and terror, that's not bad at all. And an all in aggro plan is always a nice strategy

[Filippo @SirFailo]

5-0 in a Pauper League with Boros Moxite.

Picked it up after it crushed me in a Challenge. Solid, rarely mulligans, simple sideboard. Kind pairings, though.

Next test: MonoR Madness (16% of Challenge decks in October) and combo. Tron is its nightmare.

@OneLandHandMTG Very solid list! May you share some about MU and gameplay?

[Filippo @SirFailo]

@Woolfram_ in the last challenge i drifted to a faerie versione of the deck - a bit better overal but worst against affinity. I'm planning to try vandalblast there to

[Filippo @SirFailo]

How to read it: share of published decks. Paper = MTGTop8 (Italy 361 decks, rest of Europe 446), mostly Top 8s. Online = 27 MTGO Challenges, 853 decks. Archetypes from the decklists.

Pauper meta, Oct 2-31: paper vs online.

MonoR Madness: 16% of MTGO Challenge decks, 9-10% on paper.
Dimir Faeries: 9% online, 3% on paper.
Spy Combo: 9% in Europe, 3% online.

Same format, very different metas.

@Woolfram_ i faced pastilence and it appeared very hard to me to... another really hard MU imho is Grixis Affinity

[Filippo @SirFailo]

@shukhvta Pauper is a great home for that: cheap cards, deep games, and a format that changes every few weeks. Paper or online?

[Filippo @SirFailo]

@MTGdecks @LigaPauperMAD 70 players for a first round is a great turnout. Esper Affinity winning again: is it pushing out Grixis in paper or just a local thing?

[Filippo @SirFailo]

@MarkHay02961290 Interesting, I'm 11-6 in matches with this list so far but I feel the same about speed in some games. What do you cut for the Snackers and the Angler?

[Filippo @SirFailo]

4-2 at Saturday's Pauper Challenge with Dimir Faeries.

Boros Moxite is rough. Congrats seasonofmists on the run!

Combo is fine: lost to Ruby Storm, but pressure + interaction kept me in it.

Sideboard still a puzzle, but all upside vs full Dimir Control.

[Filippo @SirFailo]

@seasonofmists_ Congratz! Very well played our match and I think boros has a real good MU against dimir faerie. What are very bad MU in your experience?

[Filippo @SirFailo]

3-3 at Friday's Pauper Challenge with Dimir Faeries.

MTGO lag was brutal today: frozen client, clock ticking. Anyone else?

The deck feels strong. Grixis Affinity is still a nightmare, and I don't see the plan yet.

Back tomorrow morning for another Challenge.

@NickNorman @hedronsquid Strong claim, we'll see!

[Filippo @SirFailo]

@thewitchhatcafe @jarcrejected @zelda_g7 @taketotheskyes Which of those formats do you enjoy most? And why?

[Filippo @SirFailo]

@yPrincipeMTG Welcome back! Which all-spells deck caught you off guard?

[Filippo @SirFailo]

@webermtg Congrats on the 2nd. What were you on? Curious how it lined up against Ruby Storm.

[Filippo @SirFailo]

@MTGdecks Gruul Ramp winning a 37-player night: is it showing up more in paper than online?
