Awesome video, Dev. I think it goes really well with Professor's video on mtg-related presents. You can build a neat little "battle box" with these decks to play them against one another, and only for 25 something bucks, that's a cool gift idea
Awesome to see other people making standard pauper content! I've been running standard pauper youth tournaments over here in Hawaii and making content to help support the kids. Will be sharing your channel with my audience.
Hi Dev. Many thanks for doing this video. I was a big fan the last time you covered this subject. I seem to be a typical story. I started playing in 1996, stopping about 1999, played a few times over the next few years, then stopped and didn't play until 2015! I work with a lot of geeks. A colleague and I decided to each buy a deck builders toolkit and play. Eventually we were joined by another 15 players from the company, spouses and friends. We play lots of different constructed and limited formats. I have taught a lot of people how to play MTG over the last 2 years. I wish I had decks like the ones featured in this video during that time. More recently my nephews have asked me to teach them the game (9 & 11 years old) and I intended to build these decks as Christmas presents for them. I have a couple of suggestions: • Do these videos more often at strategic times. It'd have been superb if this video came out at the beginning of December for example • Maybe do the decks by price rather than rarity (but keep it super budget - $10 for example). This would allow a few more bomb(ish) inclusions and better explore common archetypes in the game • As I suggested earlier, these make superb gifts. With the inclusion of deck boxes, sleeves, spin downs and maybe even play mats they would be even better (you should tell MTG Player) Love you your channel Dev. Many, many thanks for your hard work.
You have been my favorite TH-camr for a while and you just keep pulling further ahead. Keep it up! I had made a Black AMK Standard Pauper list a while back with a lot of artifact synergy. I feel like Renegade Freighter deserves a spot somewhere.
Damn. I was gonna ask you if you were going to make a Pauper deck since you've mentioned liking that format, and then you post this with not one, but FIVE decks?! 4 A.M.?! You've made christmas come a little early for me. You're awesome.
I built the R/G Hunters and the Mono Red Artifact decks; R/G mainly for my girlfriend who trends toward those colors and the Mono Red for me since I love artifacts so much. I have to tell you, the Hunters deck is a tough fight! I lost that game with the Mono Red. Tried out your build of Sram Enchantress I built for [eventually] using down at the LGS against it, and that deck won only due to her grounding out due to mana flood, (Might have to see about dropping in some more cycling of some sort) but not before she beat me down to 9 life in two strikes before I was able to get a Desert's Hold on that bugger. Have to say, we had a blast playing these builds! Hunters has a lot of potential abuse-ability via sideboard options like Rile and Fling. Thanks for the work you put into your channel and deck builds!! I can't wait to build the other three pauper decks shown here. One last thing, these decks seem to be really great to have someone who is either new or never played before to play, since the overall concept is easily taught, and so much fun to play!
Your videos are my favorite! Thanks for making such high-quality content and with such enthusiasm. No matter how bad my day has been, pulling up one of your videos and hearing "What's up my wizards?" instantly makes the day better. Thanks for everything!
I was just staring at my 9 booster boxes full of bulk, thinking, "man, I wish there was an accessible resource to where I could build some decks without having to apply myself." Thank you. Thank you so much.
Hey Dev, I just purchased the cards I needed for all five decks. I'm super excited to play with them at my next game night. Love your vids; keep up the awesome work.
Has problems with audio, tries to fix it, doesn't work, re records all for us. You are the greatest! And we loce you for it my man. Also, love the sweater
these decks are outstanding. Played the monowhite last night and had great tough matches into the big boy field. even won a few matches in a standard showdown last night. and I'm a newer player. Great fun ill be playing this in our up coming pauper league as well.
Hey Dev, these are also good to buy to have some magic decks laying around to play with friends that don't necessarily have their own magic decks. Create like a small battle box of decks to chose from (with around the same powerlevel) to play with eachother. Happy holidays!
Dev! I really appreciate the stuff that you do! Especially when I find out that you're up at 4 AM, making a vid?! That's amazing! Keep up the good work you do here and stick with it for as long as you can; it'll take you places! Love ya!
We built nearly the identical Hunters deck, however I did cheatyface and play Lightning Strike but loved Rile in it! The Hunters with trample is magic!
So finally got to play these in 3 player multiplayer and it was so much freaking fun. The red synergies so well the r/g Dino was great the the white weenies went wide. Very fun time. Didn’t run black or blue control but. Still good time. Great decks.
Was going to send ya 20$ for Christmas. New player and appreciate the work you put in to decks to allow me to learn and grow. Decided I would just do Patreon for 2 months for 10$. Hope you get that camera. Thank you sir.
There is a streamer that has been streaming Dev's decks after every release of a deck tech. You should check out his streams, or [videos] on Twitch, think he streams on Twitch. You will find his name on some of the recent previous decktechs (he hasn't been doing it for really long), mostly near the top of the comments.
That Mono-Red Artifact Deck looks like a Budget version of my Mono-Red Artificer Deck I use for Standard. Pia, Scrounger, and Freejam are just a taste of the power-ups.
Thanks dev! This wad awesome. My friends and I still play the decks from last year (I think?) Occasionally! Thanks so much dev, we really appreciate the Hard work!
you want Dev to have no sleep at all? they most definitely aren't balanced, but who cares. they are dirt cheap, you can buy them all and tweak'em all you want :)
It's obviously hard to balance decks against each other, seeing most decks want to do different things and 'winning' implies a dis-balance ... so what you are looking for is 'are these deck fair to play against each other', and even that is hard (i'm sort of trying to build a similar deck collection with budget tribal standard decks, so i run into this as well), and the main thing is to play these decks against each other and note and analyse the matches, then from there you will have to tweak the decks to give them more of a chance. That means either weakening really strong decks (without necessarily hindering their functionality), and if possible strengthening weak decks (if there are commons available) ... Another way to solve these issues is to include sideboards, f/e there is artifact removal in white to the matchup with the two artifact decks (and green and red too for that matter), and there is more cheap removal in black to possibly compensate, etc. and so on. Another thing you may want to consider, as this can just be a pauper deck collection for on the shelve play, is that as new sets come out, you can upgrade the decks, if cards are available, and obviously your on the shelve collection doesn't have to remain 'standard legal', my 'budget tribal decks' started in origins with B/G elves, then B/R Vampires from innistrad, B/W zombies from devastation, and now G/B merfolk will be added. And i use some made up rules to keep decks fair, like landbase construction (mainly equal dual land numbers), rares/mythic inclusion, removal/card draw parity, and sideboard techs to give players options against each other (f/e including 'reach in the form of 'Spidery Grasp' enchantment +1/3 & reach, for the matchup with mostly flying Vampires). So my collection is already outside of standard, but that is no issues as long as i keep them fair against each other, and yes that means some decks get less optimal creatures or spells (or in numbers available in the 75), so what? ... the idea is to provide a fair and enjoyable off the shelve play environment, not building the most competitive decks ;) ... just go for it, $14 to get started seems like a steel, and it can only get better from there on out.
Hey Dev I've recently gotten into watching mtgo gameplay, have you considered gameplay videos? I really enjoy Seth on mtg goldfish, but I've struggled to find other personalities that I enjoy watching. I already know I enjoy your personality so I would love to watch you play.
Great! Thanks a lot for this, I'm a fairly new to mtg and actually just playing limited :) But your pauper decks gave me some fun on mtgo :D I realized that you didn't mentioned any sideboards for these decks, was that on purpose? thx
Hi, I really like your videos very much. Wanted to leave a little feedback on topic: I played the "GR Sun-Crowned Hunters" against a mono-red peasant deck after work today. Lost 15 of 15 kitchen table games, and not once felt even close to winning. Got a hunter out only twice. At all other times, I didn't get the mana for the hunters or the hunters themselves before I was dead. I really thought that your well thought-out decks would perform better against non-pauper decks, so I'm kind of frustrated now. But then, maybe that's impossible to achieve? Anyways, I built all 5 of the decks, and will try the others as well. I hope it will not get to be as frustrating as it was with the hunters today. Question for all of you that played the hunters: what was your experience with them?
By now, I played all of the decks for a couple of times. I had some surprise wins with the black and also with the white deck. These two are the most fun to play in my experience. Very happy to have them! Sadly, the control deck misses synergy and a punchy win condition. I feel that I just cycle cards away that I'm going to need next turn, or use good cards up on not so strong targets, just to keep myself alive until I run out of options. I like some of its cards (the Pharaohs, the cycling Illumination, Opt), and would be very happy to get some hints on how to improve that deck.
Sun-crown hunter became even better with rivals giving Frilled death spitter and Forerunner of the empire. If you set up a board it pushes opponents into a corner if it gets there
Turn 6 Sun crowned hunters + turn 7 crashed the ramparts + 3 shocks. So minimum would that be 12 damage if it gets blocked? Unblocked 17? Either way, really glad you made this because I have amassed too many cards since getting back into the game this year and needed to do something with them. Thanks!
Not going to lie here, think this list should be expanded upon ... There is a VERY strong case for Standard Pauper Mono Green Ramp ... Also think U/W Flyers has things going for it ... then in G/U there may well be 2 decks options, G/U Merfolk Tempo, and G/U Energy ...
Wouldn't lightning strike be fine since it was printed at common in a past set? I'd probably use that over open fire under that situation, but I've never done a "standard pauper" deck before and have no idea if the long standing rule for what got printed at common before counts in the standard environment.
You Wanna Know What My Favorite Budget Decks Are? Those 58-Land Decks, For Example Seismic Assault, Countryside Crusher, Etcetera, Etcetera, Ad Nauseam, Ad Nauseam.
So I've been playing an enrage dinos deck and I gotta say, I think the Hunter deck is really missing Rile. It draws you a card and gives Hunters trample, in addition to pinging the opponent off the enrage trigger. It's one of my favorite cards in my deck
I love the content you make. I don't know if you've heard this, but I've noticed you plug tcg. More then informing people to purchase from there LGS(Local Gameing store/shop). (does tcg have a shop in every city to play? Does Walmart let us play magic in there stores? Does target allow us to play in there stores?) Yeah LGS maybe a little more expensive. They give you a place to play games. :-)
This is a rough list of what I'd play if I were trying to do pauper standard... Creatures 4 Slither Blade 4 Bastion Inventor 1 Striped Riverwinder Instants 4 Opt 3 Revolutionary Rebuff 3 Depths of Desire 4 Metallic Rebuke 3 Hieroglyphic Illumination Artifacts 4 Inventor's Goggles 2 Cobbled Wings 4 Prophetic Prism Enchantments 3 One With the Wind Lands 4 Desert of the Mindful 17 Island Bastion Inventor is broken.
I'm thinking about teaching some of the younger players some basics. From as simple as enforcing Untap, Upkeep, Draw all the way up to when you choose not to block. I think these would be really great "classroom" decks, so to speak. I'd use $30 of my own money for that. I think 2 or 3 of the guys would attend a teaching class.
+Strictly Better MtG I think people playing Standard Pauper would be ok with Lightning strike because it was a common multiple times. Normal Pauper doesn't remove cards when they have a rarity shift to uncommon so why should standard?

I didn't include the price of basic lands, just FYI. Hope you guys enjoy it, this one was a lot of fun to make!
Strictly Better MtG 4 am???! you are santa for doing this!!! and I dont even believe in santa.
I will be making all of these as a pauper battle box :D
You could maybe turn the Sun-Crowned Hunters into jund hunters for snake and ballista in normal standard
zaxadillo pauper. Pauper is commons only.
Louise Drake I understand. I said "for normal standard" for a reason
Awesome video, Dev. I think it goes really well with Professor's video on mtg-related presents. You can build a neat little "battle box" with these decks to play them against one another, and only for 25 something bucks, that's a cool gift idea
My exact idea's
thx for your passion and presence in the MTG community! *

You have been my favorite TH-camr for a while and you just keep pulling further ahead. Keep it up!
I had made a Black AMK Standard Pauper list a while back with a lot of artifact synergy. I feel like Renegade Freighter deserves a spot somewhere.
Micheal Schlott not a common

Heck yeah, pauper! Happy Holidays, Dev!
Appreciate the extra effort to get this one out, Dev! You're the man.
Your videos are my favorite! Thanks for making such high-quality content and with such enthusiasm. No matter how bad my day has been, pulling up one of your videos and hearing "What's up my wizards?" instantly makes the day better. Thanks for everything!
4am? now that's dedication....lol
I was just staring at my 9 booster boxes full of bulk, thinking, "man, I wish there was an accessible resource to where I could build some decks without having to apply myself."
Thank you. Thank you so much.
Thanks buddy for re-recording I know the pain lol
Appreciate the 4am recording! We love ya too Dev
This would make a good Christmas present for my friend just getting into magic and I have most of these cards. Good idea.
This is why I love you man... The amount of dedication that you have for the community is baffling, keep it up!
just bought all 5 decks for $15 (minus basics). can't wait to try these out! Thanks for the pauper love!
Hey Dev, I just purchased the cards I needed for all five decks. I'm super excited to play with them at my next game night. Love your vids; keep up the awesome work.
this decks are badass. i like the simple casual formats with a crap ton of decks for people to choose from! great job!
Dude you stayed up later than you needed to just to give us a great video. We don't deserve you man. Happy Holidays Dev, you're the best!!
Has problems with audio, tries to fix it, doesn't work, re records all for us. You are the greatest! And we loce you for it my man. Also, love the sweater
these decks are outstanding. Played the monowhite last night and had great tough matches into the big boy field. even won a few matches in a standard showdown last night. and I'm a newer player. Great fun ill be playing this in our up coming pauper league as well.
Thanks for going the extra mile dev.Merry Christmas and thanks for another year of great content.
Hey Dev, these are also good to buy to have some magic decks laying around to play with friends that don't necessarily have their own magic decks. Create like a small battle box of decks to chose from (with around the same powerlevel) to play with eachother.

We built nearly the identical Hunters deck, however I did cheatyface and play Lightning Strike but loved Rile in it! The Hunters with trample is magic!
Tried the Monowhite Aggro - SUUUUUper FUN! Swapped "Caught in the Brights" for "Revoke Privileges" though.
So finally got to play these in 3 player multiplayer and it was so much freaking fun. The red synergies so well the r/g Dino was great the the white weenies went wide. Very fun time. Didn’t run black or blue control but. Still good time. Great decks.
Was going to send ya 20$ for Christmas. New player and appreciate the work you put in to decks to allow me to learn and grow. Decided I would just do Patreon for 2 months for 10$. Hope you get that camera. Thank you sir.
these are fine for casual played and are made mostly to go vs each other , there fun to play for sure but am just making sure you know this ,
"fun to play" as opposed to what?
Strictly Better always comes through with the best video no matter what strife he's been through. Thank you man
In AMK I drafted quite often... I've pack one pick one gust walker more than once.
The card is nuts.
This is gonna be a lot of fun to play, I took the lands out of the mono white deck and it was only $2, super cheap!
Please some gameplay in the Channel. I want to see some of the decktechs in action!!!!
There is a streamer that has been streaming Dev's decks after every release of a deck tech. You should check out his streams, or [videos] on Twitch, think he streams on Twitch.

That Mono-Red Artifact Deck looks like a Budget version of my Mono-Red Artificer Deck I use for Standard. Pia, Scrounger, and Freejam are just a taste of the power-ups.
These look super spicy to pick up before the holidays to play some fun pick up games with the friends for the cheap! Love the content as always!
Much love from all of us, Dev! Have a great holiday season and here's to a wonderful new year! Love these decks!
Thank you so much for your work!
I really enjoy looking for deck ideas around TH-cam, and this video offers a lot!
Keep it up!
This is awesome, Thanks Dev!! Going to get these decks for family & friends to play during the holidays :)
Thanks for the vid... great decks to make a battle box for casual play.
Spread the love, Dev, great list :)
Merry Christmas Dev,
Thanks for all your work
Thanks dev! This wad awesome. My friends and I still play the decks from last year (I think?) Occasionally! Thanks so much dev, we really appreciate the Hard work!
Nice decks. These would go well in Prof's Battle Box gift idea!
I buy boxes of just bulk commons for like £6, and this video is a god send
Sorry about the audio issues! Would love to see a xmas episode where you sit by a fire or a tree c; take care
EDIT: LIT shirt, Dev.
are these balanced against each other ? this would be a good battle box ?
you want Dev to have no sleep at all? they most definitely aren't balanced, but who cares. they are dirt cheap, you can buy them all and tweak'em all you want :)
if you take out all the basic lands all 5 decks are 14 bucks lol
the decks are FREE tbh. Most of the cards are draft junk and even if u dont have them already, most people will just gift them to you if u ask :D
It's obviously hard to balance decks against each other, seeing most decks want to do different things and 'winning' implies a dis-balance ... so what you are looking for is 'are these deck fair to play against each other', and even that is hard (i'm sort of trying to build a similar deck collection with budget tribal standard decks, so i run into this as well), and the main thing is to play these decks against each other and note and analyse the matches, then from there you will have to tweak the decks to give them more of a chance.

I tested 3 of these decks. Thank you very much, I am enjyoing than A LOT! :)
Merry Christmas Dev!
Anybody else love how goofy caught in the brights is?
Have you though about trying Renegade Freighter in the mono black deck? Maybe over Cobbled Wings? Seems like another vehicle would be good in the deck
Hey Dev I've recently gotten into watching mtgo gameplay, have you considered gameplay videos? I really enjoy Seth on mtg goldfish, but I've struggled to find other personalities that I enjoy watching. I already know I enjoy your personality so I would love to watch you play.
Hello Dev. Great content. Do you plan to do a new video about standard pauper?
Even if the decks themselves are cool on their own i think that this would be awesome as a battle box. Great work, love it.
Great! Thanks a lot for this, I'm a fairly new to mtg and actually just playing limited :) But your pauper decks gave me some fun on mtgo :D I realized that you didn't mentioned any sideboards for these decks, was that on purpose? thx
would you run a quck update so we can be competitive at the current pauper standard in mtg areana?
I really dig your channel. Keep up this dedication brother!
Merry Christmas Dev, love you
Hi, I really like your videos very much. Wanted to leave a little feedback on topic: I played the "GR Sun-Crowned Hunters" against a mono-red peasant deck after work today. Lost 15 of 15 kitchen table games, and not once felt even close to winning. Got a hunter out only twice. At all other times, I didn't get the mana for the hunters or the hunters themselves before I was dead. I really thought that your well thought-out decks would perform better against non-pauper decks, so I'm kind of frustrated now. But then, maybe that's impossible to achieve? Anyways, I built all 5 of the decks, and will try the others as well. I hope it will not get to be as frustrating as it was with the hunters today. Question for all of you that played the hunters: what was your experience with them?
Edgesong I have something based off of his B/W Ixalan Vampires deck and it performs pretty well...
By now, I played all of the decks for a couple of times. I had some surprise wins with the black and also with the white deck. These two are the most fun to play in my experience. Very happy to have them! Sadly, the control deck misses synergy and a punchy win condition. I feel that I just cycle cards away that I'm going to need next turn, or use good cards up on not so strong targets, just to keep myself alive until I run out of options. I like some of its cards (the Pharaohs, the cycling Illumination, Opt), and would be very happy to get some hints on how to improve that deck.
Have you considered Renegade Freighter for the aggro decks?
Potater Cat Yeah! Pauper
Louise Drake it's a common look it up
Sun-crown hunter became even better with rivals giving Frilled death spitter and Forerunner of the empire. If you set up a board it pushes opponents into a corner if it gets there
Great vidoe Dev. Time to put this battle box together.
would be interested in seeing you take on the Sultai Energy deck
You mentioned that there was a stronger version of the Sun Crowned Hunters deck. Would you mind sharing that one?
Now that's budget at top performance! Awesome!
i like that red one idea. i might have to build it for a pauper deck in general
Dev you should do a modern B/G Elves deck tech
Awesome shirt! I got me a boba fett Christmas shirt I wore to see the last Jedi last night!
Turn 6 Sun crowned hunters + turn 7 crashed the ramparts + 3 shocks. So minimum would that be 12 damage if it gets blocked? Unblocked 17? Either way, really glad you made this because I have amassed too many cards since getting back into the game this year and needed to do something with them. Thanks!
Second comment - you can get the tap duel lands from a shadows over innastrad bulk box at your lgs.
love your content dev.
Not going to lie here, think this list should be expanded upon ... There is a VERY strong case for Standard Pauper Mono Green Ramp ... Also think U/W Flyers has things going for it ... then in G/U there may well be 2 decks options, G/U Merfolk Tempo, and G/U Energy ...
this is the kind of content I'm here for. A+ work Dev
Dev if the audio shits the bed again, just dub over it and add kung fu movie effects
Great way to get people into playing is to have all of these cheap decks that balance pretty well when played against eachother!
Wouldn't lightning strike be fine since it was printed at common in a past set? I'd probably use that over open fire under that situation, but I've never done a "standard pauper" deck before and have no idea if the long standing rule for what got printed at common before counts in the standard environment.
Hey does Panharmonicon get triggered by ETB triggers such as snapcaster mage?
Cool stuff. Would try Prying Blade for the red deck, you have a First Striker and Menace? Why not run in and make more artifacts?
great content as always ! do you think the decks are balanced ?
1st deck was my favorite.
Love the video, wish there was a Pauper league near me!
Love the Video, but why no Rile in the Hunter Deck?
You Wanna Know What My Favorite Budget Decks Are? Those 58-Land Decks, For Example Seismic Assault, Countryside Crusher, Etcetera, Etcetera, Ad Nauseam, Ad Nauseam.
So I've been playing an enrage dinos deck and I gotta say, I think the Hunter deck is really missing Rile. It draws you a card and gives Hunters trample, in addition to pinging the opponent off the enrage trigger. It's one of my favorite cards in my deck
Please do a deck tech on 5 very budget standard decks
Love you, Dev. Thanks for the hard work you put into this one. :)
I might build these for Christmas to play with the family
No bastion inventor? You can play a pauper variant of Craig Wescoe's artificer tribal deck.
Great video and deck tech! Keep it up, big fan
Your Channel is just awesome , thx for the really good content.
I love the content you make.
I don't know if you've heard this, but I've noticed you plug tcg. More then informing people to purchase from there LGS(Local Gameing store/shop). (does tcg have a shop in every city to play? Does Walmart let us play magic in there stores? Does target allow us to play in there stores?) Yeah LGS maybe a little more expensive. They give you a place to play games. :-)
This is a rough list of what I'd play if I were trying to do pauper standard...
Creatures
4 Slither Blade
4 Bastion Inventor
1 Striped Riverwinder
Instants
4 Opt
3 Revolutionary Rebuff
3 Depths of Desire
4 Metallic Rebuke
3 Hieroglyphic Illumination
Artifacts
4 Inventor's Goggles
2 Cobbled Wings
4 Prophetic Prism
Enchantments
3 One With the Wind
Lands
4 Desert of the Mindful
17 Island
Bastion Inventor is broken.
I'm thinking about teaching some of the younger players some basics. From as simple as enforcing Untap, Upkeep, Draw all the way up to when you choose not to block. I think these would be really great "classroom" decks, so to speak.
I'd use $30 of my own money for that. I think 2 or 3 of the guys would attend a teaching class.
Wouldn't Prey Upon be better than Pounce in Deck 3?
Why don’t affinity decks play City of Brass?
+Strictly Better MtG I think people playing Standard Pauper would be ok with Lightning strike because it was a common multiple times. Normal Pauper doesn't remove cards when they have a rarity shift to uncommon so why should standard?
neat little decks
Make more of these please.
Thanks for the work man!
