Phil Writes the Saturday Morning Brew: Pauper White Weenie


A local store is starting to run Pauper events on Sunday afternoons so I wanted to bring back my old favorite Pauper deck to play. I wanted to start from scratch and adjust my deck based on what I see during my first few weeks. I'm super excited for this deck so here is the list I came up with:

White Weenie
Creatures: 28
4x Doomed Traveler
4x Icatian Javelineers
2x Hopeful Eidolon
1x Gideon's Lawkeeper
4x Squadron Hawk
4x Kor Skyfisher
4x Loyal Cathar
3x Veteran Armorer
2x Guardian of the Guildpact

Other Spells: 10
4x Bonesplitter
4x Journey to Nowhere
1x Oblivion Ring
1x Triplicate Spirits

Lands: 22
20x Plains
2x Secluded Steppe

Sideboard: 15
2x Dust to Dust
1x Oblivion Ring
3x Standard Bearer
2x Kor Santifiers
2x Lone Missionary
2x Holy Light
2x Leave No Trace
1x Celestial Flare

I really like the guys that Doomed Traveler and Loyal Cathar leaves behind. The little combo of Icatian Javelineers and Kor Skyfisher. Kor Skyfisher also works well with Lone Missionary out of the sideboard.

Hopeful Eidolon is fun for early and late game shenanigans. For some reason, I always want to put one Gideon's Lawkeeper in all my White Weenie decks. I don't know if that's terribly incorrect or not, but I like him.

Journey to Nowhere is my favorite Puaper removal spell. It pretty much gets anything and everything. Triplicate Spirits is a spell that I have never played with before, but I have seen it in some decklists so I want to try it out.

Other cards I am considering are Unmake, Ajani's Sunstriker, Leonin Skyhunter, Order of Leitbur, Porcelain Legionnaire, and Kemba's Skyguard.

Unmake makes for good no questions removal, Ajani's Sunstriker has Lifelink, Leonin Skyhunter and Kemba's Skyguard have flying, Order of Leitbur has versatility, and Porcelain Legionnaire is a real early game threat.

If you have any comments or suggestions, please let me know!!

Thank you,
Philip
