White Cards In My Pauper MTG Cube

We now have gotten to the part of the mtg cube build-a-long series where we are going to take a look at the white cards i've got in my pauper cube. We will be talking about why they are in and the support they give the cube overall.

If you have any suggestions for cards please do let me know in the comments section below.

Thank you all for watching!

This is going to be so helpful with my Pauper cube! I started building one when you started the series. This series has definitely been helpful in building it and I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the colors!

Really appreciate your videos, the commentary you give on each card gave me something to think about for my pauper cube, Thanks, and keep up the good work!

Sweet selection of card choices mate, shadow is a really novel way of getting into the red zone while keeping the soldier subtypes intact. Looking forward to the rest of the series

Looking forward to the rest of this series! I build cubes on blocks that have rotated out so I can relive those limited environments for the future (and I particularly like chaos cube sealed with a pool shared of three of these blocks!). It will be a lot more difficult to do so in future now that there is only 1 set per block from dominaria, so in future Il probably move on to try building a pauper cube, a whole format from scratch.

Awesome vid Mark. I’m looking forward to the rest of the colours in your cube.

Wow, that is a lot of removals! Would love to see some gameplay soon!

One way to push Auras as an archetype is to run some Bestow creatures. There are some that are almost good enough on their own, but the added flexibility makes them certainly contenders.
I'm also not sure if the shadow theme in B and W is a good idea - it could lead to frustrating gameplay with many non-interactive games. Definitely has to be tested.

Great video and has made me think about some of the cards in my cube. I would be tempted to change Territorial Hammerskull with Kor Hookmaster. Its not as good because it doesnt tap on attack but is better for the blink deck and it is a soldier. Also Topan Freeblade is a nice 2 drop soldier that might work in your cube

[Starfury]

I personally don't like the suspend shade. 4 mana for a 1/1 that you can pump is pretty meh. And the suspend is so late game. Take a look at Frontline Strategist. Morph, soldier theme, one side fog.

Loyal Pegasus is pretty strong aggro too.

I really like Loyal Cathar, 2 bodies for 2 mana.

[Starfury]

I also don't know how I feel about empyrial armor. I don't see white having alot of cards in hand, and blue white control isn't going to want to enchant its creature for a 2 for 1. If they want to enchant, it would be like a card draw enchantment.

I think you should look at graceful reprieve and angelic renewal to support blue white flicker. I didn't see that many. Watching your blue video now ;)

Thanks for starting this series. Have you thought about adding Order of Leitbur to your Cube?

[SFTortoise]

I really don't know what I would take out? But hopeful Eidolon is a great one/four drop! But I realize when you build pauper cube, you have to change your way of thinking from regular cube, because your strategies are different.

I've heard of 360 and 720 cubes. But why build a cube with 405 cards?

NOOO!!! You simplified journey to nowhere and are misplaying it! It is two separate triggers that can be responded to independently. When the first line enters the stack and you remove it somehow, it’s second line enters the stack. So before you even select a target, you return it and then exile a creature.
