Re: Pauper EDH Useful Cards

Wat.

Ullamog's Crusher is common?!

*whistles innocently and doesn't make any changes to his deck*

Re: Pauper EDH Useful Cards

Finding it quite tricky to get decent card draw outside blue, anybody seen anything?

Re: Pauper EDH Useful Cards

Fireball sort of a board wipe...

Re: Pauper EDH Useful Cards

Got to love this card smile

coiling oracle

Most expensive common I've bought tongue

Re: Pauper EDH Useful Cards

Good card, but I wasn't planning to list all the draw-a-card cards, too many to speak of!

Re: Pauper EDH Useful Cards

Well, it's not just draw a card. It's an Explore as well.

Re: Pauper EDH Useful Cards

Added a metric fuck ton of mana ramp cards, some commander protections and a spattering of other stuff.
Blue is certainly winning the "largest number of repeatable effects" contest at the moment, but that's probably some selection bias as I've been looking at that colour more than the others thus far.

Re: Pauper EDH Useful Cards

Added a selection of non-basic lands.

Re: Pauper EDH Useful Cards

Command Tower most amazing common land EVER. lol

Re: Pauper EDH Useful Cards

Not sure exactly how to categorize her, but  Ivy Lane Denizen seems like an allstar card if you're playing green.
