I'd like to show you my simple yet effective pauper deck that revolves around totem armors and other great enchantments. The deck also has cheap-yet-useful creatures and ways to bounce and replay your enchantments when a better creature comes along.
Creatures - 20
x4 Gladecover Scout
x4 Elvish Visionary
x4 Aura Gnarlid
x4 Courier Hawk
x4 Kor Skyfisher
x2 Auramancer
Aura Spells - 18
x4 Spider Umbra
x2 Lignify
x2 Snake Umbra
x4 Hyena Umbra
x2 Pacifism
x4 Ethereal Armor
G/W Instants - 4
x4 Sigil Blessing
Lands - 18
x2 Selesnya Sanctuary
x8 Plains
x8 Forest
What it does:
The deck revolves around beefing up your small creatures and aura gnarlid with cheap enchantments, while you hinder your opponent with lignify and pacifism. Kor skyfisher is perfect for moving an enchantment from one creature to another, or bouncing useful creatures like the visionary or auramancer. Totem armors make up the majority of the enchantments in this deck, and they help keep your creatures alive and swinging.
Pricier, but better:
Obviously since this is a pauper deck, there is a lot of room for improvement. If you wish to break the pauper theme, here are a few suggestions. Kor Spiritdancer is another solid aura-target, and she rewards you with cards for playing auras! Rancor is a perfect aura for any green deck. It's cheap, powerful, and brings itself back to your hand if the creature eventually dies. Bear Umbra and Felidar Umbra follow the umbra theme that this deck is already leaning towards. Retether would be perfect after a mass enchantment wipe, allowing you to put yours back onto the field.
Whether you keep it pauper or not, I hope this deck is as enjoyable for you as it is for me.
Happy Playing!

Again, the land count is low even though the mana curve is low.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise this is my dream deck lol. I know auras aren't all that good and they're still trying to "fix" that issue, hexproof is the way to go.
Sadly I don't have most of these cards, but I can do another variant for myself I guess :D
