Strictly Better MtG It was awesome. You should do it for every announcement of power rankings. Sorry; POWER RANKINGS!!! Regarding the question about Unsleeved vs Wizards I think everyone would just love it if you’d leave it be. I started my subscription here because I wanted to hear a nice person talk about Magic and not the goddamn Culture Wars. As long as I don’t have to have it shoved down my throat, you can be With Her, feel the Bern or be a goddamn Klansman as far as I’m concerned. ESCAPISM, people, and lines of communication beyond our normal digital echo chambers. These things make games like Magic great - not shoving ill-conceived opinions up the butt of every other person you interact with.
If you want to try it feel free to play it in my new Pauper cockatrice League I'd love it if you could join. All details can be found on the discord: discord.gg/rcPavUF
Dev, love you man. Please do some of your typical rogue type builds for pauper. I play (online and in paper at R2R and such) and truthfully am tired of just hearing about the tier decks. Looking for something cool and new and usually I look to you man. Keep it up, love the channel and watch every video. Would love to bounce some ideas off you
I am so fucking in to pauper since I learned it's basically legacy but $60. The format is broken in half, yet sublimely balanced. Healthy variety on top of it all.
I'm glad he put that caption for land grant...I would have thought it was 2.50$ and it was an error. I didn't think there were any played cards that old that were 25 cents..
Watching this video I had the realization that my old elf-ball deck is pauper legal. Elves, Tinder Wall, Orcish Lumberjacks, Ashnod's Altar, and fireball/lava burst. Green weenie with a burn end to it. Used only forests and the lumberjacks, Tinder walls, and Quirion elves for the red mana.
Dude I really like your content, I love play pauper and love much more elves. I only have a suggestion, try to use a Lapel microphone to record your audio, some times it goes up faster or became echoed. I am not trying to be critic, but I want you become better and better. Thanks for the video
You're a way better artist, but that line about being a favorite Magic channel's favorite Magic channel reminds me of Young Jeezy when he said "I'm your favorite rapper's favorite rapper.". You, sir, may be the only rapper I truly admire
I have one question: There are so few lands in the deck. When do you mulligan? Is one forest or land grant sufficient in a hand to keep it, assuming you have a one-drop, or does that one-drop need to be a mana dork? Do you need two forest/land grant?
I'm working on a points list instead of a ban list because it will stop the format becoming boring like trin affinity mono black control just be the top decks and I'm mainly going to try it in my play group
I'm just curious. Why wouldn't you run an extra 4 forests instead of land grant? I can't really see the benefit of having land grant instead of a forest. I'm sure there's a good reason so could someone please tell me?
Tinycuber1 Short answer, almost always. If you play against people who know this deck and will know to counter land grant, run the forests. It does lose a lot of its versatility in this format, but it is about as close to a fetch as your gonna get.
In this deck, no way. Landfall is horrible when you only have 9 lands and you're popping off green spells constantly. Also, it's white, so there is only one way to cast it. I wouldn't say that Steppe Lynx is objectively better than Nettle Sentinel in general either. Why even bring up Steppe Lynx?
AND HERE ARE YOUR POWER RANKINGS lol sorry forgot to delete the camera’s audio so you’re getting it with both barrels from 18:00 on
AMAZING!
I thought you were just applying the ElvisTM echo.
"Let's get ready to rumble!"
(Please don't sue me, Mr Buffer.)
Hey what is your thoughts on the UnsleevedMedia vs Wizards??? TY. :)

18:00. Dev ascends.
I like you.
Stadium announcer mode activate @18:01
Sunday Sunday Sunday. Monster truck rallllllllllllyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!
Voice of God during power rankings.
it's actually really good to split your mana dork playsets up with Fyndhorn against echoing decay
Dude I love the pauper decks you've been putting out lately. I think I might actually have to try this one out
same !

you know what i want as a sick christmas present, an album of all your intro songs tbh that would be amazing
YES!! MORE PAUPER!! thank you dev, merry Christmas bud
Wow, pauper elves, what a lovely Xmas present, thanks Dev! Happy Christmas !
Again just so happy for Pauper deck techs! Love the format and will definitely have to give this one a try!
I am so fucking in to pauper since I learned it's basically legacy but $60. The format is broken in half, yet sublimely balanced. Healthy variety on top of it all.
Loving all the pauper stuff, its easily becoming the most interesting format to me.
Hope you all have awesome holidays too !
I'm glad he put that caption for land grant...I would have thought it was 2.50$ and it was an error. I didn't think there were any played cards that old that were 25 cents..
best mtg channel :)
merry christmas !

I'd really like to see Taunting Elf and Copperhorn Scout in there, but pretty awesome. Any deck with Quirion Ranger is going to make me happy.
Merry Christmas! Thank you for the unexpected gift! May all your mana be fixed!
More pauper deck tech please. :D
Sweet tech Dev! Keep the pauper comin
Audio is weird as soon as he starts talking about his power rankings after 18 min mark?
ImHereDoItNow!!! Same. Thought it was just me
It's not that noticable.....at all....(sarcasm)
same
It was VERY HARD to vote liked on an elf video but I have to like all your vids - always great.
Dude I really like your content, I love play pauper and love much more elves.
I only have a suggestion, try to use a Lapel microphone to record your audio, some times it goes up faster or became echoed. I am not trying to be critic, but I want you become better and better.
Thanks for the video
Epic voice echo!!! Elves are evil but I love them so
I also like Kaervek's Torch out of the board as a huge FU to counterspells or fog.
In my pauper elves list, I like to use a couple slots main board for Winnower Patrol. Fun card!
ahh wellwisher memories of my highschool elf deck when i started playing. heedless one, timberwatch elf...alpha status. memories
Dev becomes possessed by Zuul around the 18 minute mark.
Are you the gatekeeper?
My friend runs a Vintage Elf deck and gotta say Wellwisher is very frustrating to play against when you're trying to end a game quickly.
I wish Dev had a link to listen to his intro music he creates. So dope
Listened to that intro about 7 times now.lol
Awesome deck dev. Im still hoping there are a few more Elves in rivals as I just need a couple more for that standard elves deck. ;)
Oh baby that rap at the beginning
Oh Quirion Ranger. I ALWAYS tutor him up with Yisan in edh. Infinity mana is a good amount to have
FIRST!! i was just looking for a cool pouper deck!! thanks dev!!! u're the best channel
Best Intro Ever. When is your album going to drop?
Love the channel. How about a pauper tron deck tech. Ive already built the mono green one, are there any other ideas out there?
Of note, Viridian Longbow combos well with Quirion Ranger
Merry Christmas everyone :)
yoo imma say this again but Dev man, you spit phat bars
If you're going to include red and can make a lot of mana, maybe include Fireball?
You're a way better artist, but that line about being a favorite Magic channel's favorite Magic channel reminds me of Young Jeezy when he said "I'm your favorite rapper's favorite rapper.". You, sir, may be the only rapper I truly admire
the ghost of Christmas power rankings lol
Dat Chrono Trigger freestyle.

I love the intro!
I saw this in 2017 CSL Semi-Finals Match 1 played by paul cheon, he had more than 300 life
oh yeah merry christmas!
Is there a pauper reanimation deck?
I love pauper! Keep going!
this deck looks so fun
Sweet Tribal Love Bro!
Whoa that was surprising 😀
Is wurmcoil engine a good or bad idea for a elf deck...
Does anyone know where I can find the track at the beginning?
Santa's Elves will sleigh you!
can we get a tron list? I would like to see your input on it.
Merry Christmas and stay lit
Hey Dev, when I click your name on tgcplayer, I get no results for your other decks, glitch on the site?
What about Civic Wayfinder?
I'm just curious. Why wouldn't you run an extra 4 forests instead of land grant? I can't really see the benefit of having land grant instead of a forest. I'm sure there's a good reason so could someone please tell me?
Since land grant only searches for forests, why not just have 4 more forests?
Abe Moore Odell It's a green spell you cast. Untaps Nettle Sentinel
Richard Grayson thanks!
Abe Moore Odell Also, when you play one, it's -2 non-impactful cards in your deck instead of -1 as just a normal land would be.
Abe Moore Odell you don't wanna see any forests with lead the stampede
daniel wharton,
You don't want to see any non-creature either.
I run three copies of killer bees in mine
Anyone who has played magic duels knows Lys Alana huntmaster.
is it too much asked to have your music? do you have Soundcloud?
Hi dev do you play magic online??
AAANNNNDDDDD HEEEREEEE AREE YOURRRR POWERRR RANNKINGGGGSSSS
Next R/B Vampires Madness Pauper
Midea Games ohh that sounds spicy!
Is it just me or is the audio very slightly asynchronous? Great vid btw :)
OMG simic elves yes!!
Great content
You rock dev
Do an entire video with that god voice LOL
Audio not synced :p
Whats the importance of playing land grant instead of 4 more forests?
JohiHndz It’s a green spell that untaps nettle sentinel, and it thins out the deck more.
Im very curious about anyone playing Eladamri, lord of leaves, can you tell me why, please?
Ragde Grotto Eladamri is Rare
I just saw that the other day, but, how do you know in those expansions? If the simbols are just black
When is land grant better than another 4 forests?
Tinycuber1 Nettle Sentinel
Tinycuber1 Short answer, almost always. If you play against people who know this deck and will know to counter land grant, run the forests. It does lose a lot of its versatility in this format, but it is about as close to a fetch as your gonna get.
I wonder if any of this stuff could get banned, dang.
Them sound
Dev what’s wrong with your camera. It’s all fuzzy
Nvm it’s my parents shotty internet
echo-ey dev
Yas betch pauper is #1
Jk it's #2 commander is always #1
Steppe Lynx is better than Sentinel.
In this deck, no way. Landfall is horrible when you only have 9 lands and you're popping off green spells constantly. Also, it's white, so there is only one way to cast it. I wouldn't say that Steppe Lynx is objectively better than Nettle Sentinel in general either. Why even bring up Steppe Lynx?
Audio sucks
