Welcome back Pauper fam! It's finally time. You've all been wondering it and now we have the decklists to prove that Bant Terror can be more than just a meme! All three co-hosts brewed their own lists with some spicy includes. As much as this is a payoff for a long-running podcast lore joke, it's still another great brewing-focused episode and we hope you'll enjoy listening!

Welcome back Pauper fam! Or should we say, Cube fam? It's that time of year again: The CubeCon 2025 Recap Episode! This time around we had SEVEN people in the room to record and Thomas was the only one who wasn't in Madison last weekend! There were so so many stories to share and much laughter to be had. We hope you'll enjoy another laid-back, MtG gameplay story-driven, weekend recap, explicit tagged episode of the pod; full of shenanigans! Next week, we'll be back in the Pauper brewing streets building decks inspired by ancient CGMtG lore. Thank you all so much for listening!

Welcome back Pauper fam! This week we take a look at the Pauper format in broad terms to discuss the current top decks, why new or returning decks are seeing success, and the impact that the SpiderMan cards have had on the format. It's a more laidback episode on an already pretty laidback show so we hope you'll enjoy our candid takes and analysis! Thank you as always for listening!

Welcome back Pauper fam! It's time for another Cube episode! This week, we invited our dear friend Ana Paterson onto the show to talk about her cube "The Vintage Cube Retirement Home" (aka The Boomer Cube) which has been selected for the main event at CubeCon next weekend! We're super psyched for her and we hope this discussion about the cube environment will be helpful to anyone looking forward to drafting the cube at CubeCon and maybe inspire some folks to design other unique and interesting cubes. Thank you so much for listening!

Welcome back Pauper fam! This week we discuss what your opponent's first land can tell you about what deck they're playing and what their gameplan might be. It might seem like a small thing but it has cascading effects on the game and is an important tool to help you gain crucial information. Thank you as always for listening!
