Pauper Magic — Mono Red Heroics vs. Mono Blue Delver
Channel: T1GlistenerElf
Date: 22/06/2014

Here's a deck that I built the night before the tournament. With no playtesting (outside of goldfishing), I wasn't sure if I was ready to give it a go or not, but I did it nonetheless. Take a look at how it has worked out so far.

Now, in the fourth round of the evening, Delver of Secrets stand before me like to final boss. Actually, that's really very appropriate, isn't it? (^_^)

Game two actually didn't feature me siding in my Red Elemental Blasts. Frankly, I was more worried about triggering Heroic than killing even more of his creatures, and countering a spell was hardly the first of my concerns either, since countering a spell that targes one of my creatures does not negate the heroic trigger itself. Still, perhaps I should have made that exchange nonetheless, but for what? Oh dear.

Here's the decklist (as best I remember it) for anyone who cares:
Creatures
4 Akroan Crusader
4 Nyxborn Rollicker
1 Plated Geopede
1 Riot Piker
4 Satyr Hoplite
Enchantments
4 Crown of Flames
4 Dragon Mantle
4 Flamespeaker's Will
2 Furor of the Bitten
2 Ghitu Firebreathing
4 Madcap Skills
Instants
4 Lava Dart
4 Lightning Bolt
Lands
18 Mountains
Sideboard
1 Echoing Truth
3 Fury Charm
4 Pyroblast
2 Riot Piker
4 Spark Jolt
1 Titan's Strength

SPOILER ALERT!
So yeah, 4-0 for the tournament! Not bad, I should like to think.
