Seth mentioned how he wished he played MTG in the 1990s. It was pretty sweet. Ice Age, Homelands & Fallen Empires were full of junk, but the whole environment was filled with junk. I only knew one guy who netdecked in my whole city. There's nothing wrong with how Magic is now, but having dozens of opponents who were all just brewing weird junk is something that I miss.
Me and several of my middle school friends started playing around that time. Not only were we playing with any old garbage, most of us were playing 5 color decks, because we wanted to use all of our coolest cards and hadn't yet figured out that we could build multiple decks.
In the 90s I was big into things like Thicket Basilisk + Lure, or Spinal Villain + Fylamarid, or trying to lock a game with Stasis + Birds of Paradise + Kismet.
"Chandra's Incinerator" would be insane in this deck if you don't mind throwing a couple of rares. It'll often cost only one or two mana to cast, especially for this deck. And it's a 6/6 trampler that damages the opponent's creatures and planeswalkers for free as you send burn to face
Chandras incinerator requires EXTREME building around to be worth it, I think that it isn't as compatible with this deck as it seems. Otherwise it becomes just a regular old winmore.
This did exceptionally well for what is basically something one step from being a Pauper deck. Like makes me wonder if we played with it using stuff in paper and upped that damage if this wouldn't be a fair little 'turn off your brain and burrrnn baby burrrrn". There is a Shrapnel Blast deck I've been wanting to brew around from ye olden times with my Retributive Wands. This might fit in that nicely.
To be fair, Pauper's burn decks are actually legitimately pretty scary, and aren't that much weaker than their higher-rarity brethren, so this thing being a menace wasn't exactly surprising.
Pauper power level is pretty high, is definitely beyond pioneer and Historic decks. We get to play card since the beginning, plus all the commander mechanics like Monarch and Initiative. Plus the artifact lands and the rituals aren’t banned, so the interaction may be very simple sometimes, but the cards played are very powerful and effective (just think about Snuff Out, Counterspell and lighting bolt). Pauper burn is similar (monastery, blast runner, epicure) but it’s a t3/t4 win if unchecked. Improvised Club is a thing even in Pauper but it’s considered ‘weak’, so many mono red burn lists just play 1/2 copies, the most don’t even play it. We play fireblast and lava dart instead!
this is basically an existing pauper deck, look up Pauper Synthesizer, it leverages synthesizer and other card draw artifacts plus artifact sac to give a burn deck staying power
It would have made the problem SO MUCH worse. It's already a race to see who can get down the first ring. Restricting it would make games even more of an RNG fest--whoever draws theirs wins.
Grik the goblin ran away and dove behind the rock, whistling and shrieking with merriment. Behind him angry voices grew closer before they were completely drowned out by another magnificent explosion. For the fourteenth time that day, scraps of iron, cloth, and bone fountained into the sky and carpeted the rough land with debris. Some of it splattered, other pieces rebounded with metallic tinging noises. Soon the area grew quiet. Grik peeked out from behind the rock to view his handiwork. He hooted and cackled with glee as he harvested the scraps of metal again, already envisioning the next explosion...
Goblin Blast Runner is such a nice card. It’s basically a red delver of secrets for burn deck that can afford some sacrifice strategies. In pauper is a staple of Mono Red Kuldotha, which is one of the tier 1 of the formats!
The implement of combustion makes me sad we didn't get Pia's Revolution on Arena (or Walking Ballista) as it was one of my favorite janky decks back in Kaladesh block hahaha. Great deck, Seth, thanks for playing it!
Nice to see some Artisan gameplay on here! I have one idea on how to improve the list while staying on the no rare challenge: I think Gingerbrute is the better cheap artifact over Mishra's Desk because while the desk can draw cards, Light Up the Stage and Synthesizer already cover our hand advantage needs and Gingerbrute adds both some nice chip damage and evasion against lifegain decks.
Having tested various things in the deck, Gingerbrute isn't as good for Bo3. Mishra's Research Desk is very strong in some of the worse matchups. Combo Control style decks can't afford to spend counterspells on every draw spell, but those draw spells also let you draw more burn than they can draw answers. For Bo1, though, I think it is a good call.
@6:55 if you just cast the research desk from exile you'll double trigger Swiftspe'ah and get lethal. Cracking the desk was risky if you bricked. Love the content!
Seeing as you're revisiting an archetype, would you say this is a Blast From the Past? I can't believe its been 4 years, since then. Covid made life feel like time stopped.
Back when I first started playing magic Arena I had a very similar uncommon/common only deck and it did quite well, though I only played it in unranked queue. I also had an artesian golgari deck using the Carrion Grub Titanoth Rex combo with some uncommon reanimate spells, and in kamigawa I played the ox and plow deck with kaya's onslaught
This deck is everything I love doing in Magic. A lot of players just hate this style deck so much, they often just concede on turn 1 or 2. Great deck for speed running daily missions.
Hey! Love the content, as always. Budget decks especially are great for newer players to the format :D One slight complaint - your picture-in-picture is slightly too tall, and we can't read the text on triggered/activated abilities on the stack! Fine for veterans, but newer players to the format who aren't intimately familiar with the cards are gonna struggle to follow exactly what's going on. Sorry to be a downer, I really do love your Arena videos!
I've always had a problem with the argument of "mill is inefficient burn." They're definitely two sides of the same archetype but mill functions differently enough to burn that I don't think they're fully comparable. There are two main differences the way I see it. Firstly, the life total remains static unless you do something to it, whereas the deck ticks down by at least 1 card per turn. The deck also starts lower: the life total starts at 20, but the deck really starts at 53 (assuming efficient deck building and no mulligans). Secondly, regaining cards in your deck is significantly harder than regaining life. A burn deck can be shut down relatively effectively by a deck that has many ways of gaining life; a mill deck, by contrast, is a lot harder to interact with. Some cards that put other cards back into the library do exist but they're usually not priority picks unless you're planning to abuse a combo, since most decks aren't capable of removing large portions of libraries and thus it's generally better to focus on cards that get other cards back from the graveyard to your hand/battlefield rather than putting them back into the deck. These two things aren't ultimately that different from burn but in practice it makes a big difference. A burn deck can get a player to 1 life and then run out of gas and still lose, whereas a mill deck that gets the opponent down to a few cards left doesn't need gas, they just need to survive and mandatory draw steps will deal the last few points of "damage" for them. Likewise, it's much harder to offer meaningful challenge to mill decks because they're hard to interact with. Regular good lifegain cards are generally useful since even non-burn decks generally try to win by reducing your life total to 0, meaning that even decks that aren't specced specifically to counter burn decks will often have pieces (either in the main board or the side board) that can make it harder for burn to get there. Mill, on the other hand, hits a different "life" type than the life total and therefore most players won't just naturally have resilience against mill like they might against burn. Short of playing someone using Eldrazi, Gaea's Blessing or Timetwister-like spells, you're basically never going to run into anyone with natural resilience against mill. On the contrary, you will often find yourself against control players who will be extra susceptible to mill because they like to draw extra cards. As a result, even though both mill and burn function as "go face" decks, I think they function differently enough that they shouldn't be compared directly.
12:45 Citadel ONLY works against burn if you've played a Reservoir first... I usually have a bunch of 1-2 CMC removal cards on the deck, with some top deck manipulation included, and it does wonders! Also, I play phyrexian obliterator, which against burn is the bomb.
0:46 izzet artisan with beamsplitter, kiln fiend, and sprite dragon hits quite hard with the typical izzet spell boost/card draw cards with the red combat tricks. T4 kills abound, and many t3 surrenders.
I agree with this, but the deck creator was pretty insistent on Mishra's Research desk to shore up some of the deck's bad matchups. They have a lot more experience than me, so I kept them in the decklist I sent to Seth.
One very worthwhile add to this deck is Erebor Flamesmith. I've found it adds that extra bit of dmg you need. Wont save you from lifegain, but an extra 1dmg every instant or Sorcery goes a long way.
Yo i played the deck you were talking about from back in the day lol took it to my local FNM and just ran all the decks over with crazy speed =D good times
When I'm extremely bored I run my historic pauper deck in regular historic. it's definately possible if you have power commons like soul warden etc and a reasonable opening hand.
I have a 0 rare or mythic standard deck that I piloted to mythic rank last season and it’s not mono red or agro. The deck is instead built around insidious roots. The enchantment itself and all of its major support cards other than tyvar are uncommon or common and extremely cheap. Simply run snarling gorehound, rustlebelt maverick, undead butler and forsaken miner. Your removal is anihilating glare to combo with the forsaken miners and trigger them all out of your graveyard. I added in crime lands for the same reason. Also lunarch veteran is a good reason to plase white dual lands. I used it both repossession as a way of returning roots from the graveyard in case I accidentally milled it with the butler or it got destroyed. All of this made for a very solid beatdown deck that could survive against all the main standard threats. I think my worst matchup was convine but even that was beatable with a nuts draw. Other cards I ran were corrupted conviction to sacrifice juicy targets like undead butler. If you notice just about every card here costs one or two mana, so this deck really doesn’t need much. To get going. The roots fix your mana too so playing lunatics veteran to stay alive is pretty doable. Missing Tyvar does hurt for not being able to combo off extensively on a single turn, but it really isn’t necessary to win. The biggest issue the deck has is simply enchantment removal and that red 1 drop that exiles your stuff instead of sending it to the graveyard. However many standard decks simply cannot deal with roots fast enough. You are very resilient to board wipes that kill but moth those that exile like sun fall or farewell.
I'm not surprised that Artisan Burn punches above its weight class - most of Burn's core cards are commons and uncommons anyway, with the main issue being that you need to build your own card advantage engine instead of just tossing in Chandra or whatever and calling it a day.
I know its not a 100% rareless deck (its got one busted mythic that you build around), but the new agatha's soul cauldron izzet deck is pretty good in historic with the right uncommons. If you do it right, you could potentially create an infinite mana/damage loop as soon as turn3.
Kinda surprised there’s no Tormod’s Crypt in the deck. Very nice graveyard hate but against a deck that doesn’t care for graveyard, it’s a 0 mana artifact to sac to Blast which still triggers Swiftspear.
Could be worth it depending on the meta. If you are running into a lot of graveyard decks like Greasefang it's probably worth cutting the Implement of Combustion for it.
I kno I am super late to the party on this one, but even in modern it is possible to win with zero or even limited rare cards. Most of the decks I have put together over the years have been predominantly unommons and commons with a rare here and there if it synergizes well. ;)
Three mana is pretty rough for the deck with many draws, and not worth it in the maindeck. Since the deck has enough instant-speed burn, the Ring doesn't even do much beyond preventing your creatures from attacking for a turn.
It's a bit awkward because we can't target our opponent with it, stopping lifegain is nice though. I think I'd play it in the sideboard in best of three for sure, but not sure it's worth it in best of one.
@monogreen honestly, when thinking of Arena specific printings, it would have been hilarious if Seth used a rare variation basic mountain in this deck 🤣
Seth mentioned how he wished he played MTG in the 1990s. It was pretty sweet. Ice Age, Homelands & Fallen Empires were full of junk, but the whole environment was filled with junk. I only knew one guy who netdecked in my whole city. There's nothing wrong with how Magic is now, but having dozens of opponents who were all just brewing weird junk is something that I miss.
The Hive was a wincon in one of my decks. Make a 1/1 flying each turn for 5. Woo.
Me and several of my middle school friends started playing around that time. Not only were we playing with any old garbage, most of us were playing 5 color decks, because we wanted to use all of our coolest cards and hadn't yet figured out that we could build multiple decks.
No joke. One of my first decks was based around seasinger. Does anyone even know what that card is these days?
that's also why commander is so popular
Competition ruin gaming since the dawn of time
In the 90s I was big into things like Thicket Basilisk + Lure, or Spinal Villain + Fylamarid, or trying to lock a game with Stasis + Birds of Paradise + Kismet.

"A deck cannot have more than one The One Ring." would have fixed a LOT of the problems with the card AND be super flavorful.

ya know, comparing mill to burn is actually really interesting, like tasha's hideous laughter can be a 2 damage for 3 or sometimes a 7 dmaage for 3
Glimpse the unthinkable is more like a 2 mana deal 4 (since each player starts with 53 cards 10 card is ~ 4 life)
As a David that also plays Elves, that game sure hurt

Yeah, you have to piece together the card draw with random artifacts, but it actually works since you need them to sacrifice to Shrapnel Blast anyway.
+1 for the surprise cat visit
My favorite zero rare deck is azorius toughness matters in explorer. Actually quite competitive in BO1
Do you have list? I've never heard of that.
I know its not a 100% rareless deck (its got one busted mythic that you build around), but the new agatha's soul cauldron izzet deck is pretty good in historic with the right uncommons. If you do it right, you could potentially create an infinite mana/damage loop as soon as turn3.
decided to spend my wildcards on this deck - its pretty damn fun yall
Are there artifact mountain lands you can add in to help with the artifact sacrifice? or do you think it is not needed?
I was having a really shit day, i really appreciate this upload
Hopefully tomorrow is better!
This is basically just the current burn build in pauper lol
What is fascinating to me is...this is so close to actual Mono Red in Pauper.
Are there any upgrades? I've played with it a bit and it seems very strong already and I was wondering what upgrades could be.
That’s Pauper Burn!
That's Artisan Burn!
Man, this deck would be so much better with lurrus is my biggest gripe, don’t even need a super powerful manabase or anything.
Kinda surprised there’s no Tormod’s Crypt in the deck. Very nice graveyard hate but against a deck that doesn’t care for graveyard, it’s a 0 mana artifact to sac to Blast which still triggers Swiftspear.
Could be worth it depending on the meta. If you are running into a lot of graveyard decks like Greasefang it's probably worth cutting the Implement of Combustion for it.

Three mana is pretty rough for the deck with many draws, and not worth it in the maindeck. Since the deck has enough instant-speed burn, the Ring doesn't even do much beyond preventing your creatures from attacking for a turn.
