A decade ago I dreamed of there being a Pauper Grand Prix and now I realize that dream has come true with Paupergeddon.
Over 1,000 people in the main event alone! Paupergeddon events happen many times each year, so maybe one day you shall join these many Magic: The Gathering players...
I think we're getting a bit better at this as we hone the models. Defo a marked improvement Vs the Spidey results but the popularity of lorwyn skews it a bit so very much to be taken with a pinch of salt.

Amazing. I've popped together a pods worth of Spidey decks. For Green Gob it was almost exactly your list, but I let it have an 'out of Universe' land base (although all basics had to be 'in universe' basics). And I didn't play black cat because she felt thematically off joining up with Norman?
The duck one of those was super weird too. I somehow still remember it from when I was a kid
Can't wait to play the Weasleys in pauper
Can the banning announcement be the hybrid mana thing?
Kai Budde's world championship deck and following his PT coverage as a kid got me into magic properly. I remember wondering how anyone could be quite this good at the game and some part of that hooked me on magic. A massive loss for the magic community.
Pretty excited to do this next week
I'm particularly looking forward to doing this next week with Auntie Ool
Does the quillspike-devoted druid loop happen already somewhere? With Auntie Ool you get to draw your deck with it right?
Which cards are likely to go down in value and which cards might (Quill) spike in price from the new Lorwyn Eclipse Blight Curse precon:
I did some data sciencing to try to work it out:

Is that county champs foil now the most expensive token of all time?
I'm excited for your myriad of mutavaults, but it's blowing my mind that that once OP standard staple is now just a token
This then I guess: just to make sure Aboshan has lots of cephalid friends
Whhhhaaaaaatttt? Why?!
I was playing pre-2015 so there's weirdly more discovery space for me post 2015, but I had no idea this card existed until I started brewing a Kratos, God of War deck (with Silent Arbiter etc.). Felt thematically perfect though:
I ran our home-built 'Future Sight AI' on the new Lorwyn spoiler High Perfect Morcant to see what it thinks could be the next Fluorishing Defenses card spikes. Here's what it thinks will spike if Morcant gets popular: www.tap-for-value.com/post/morcant...
Best.Basics.Ever.
Does this make the cut for pauper faeries?
Popped together some thoughts on a Hulk commander deck after yesterday's #MtGMarvel spoilers.
Not just Caltrops...

Since Tophs's been doing some phenomenal commander metal (and earth) bending, we've had a quick data-science look at what other card prices she might impact : www.tap-for-value.com/post/unearth... #mtgfinance #mtgavatar
