Welcome to the Deckbuilders' Challenge originally created by sdfkjgh! To participate in this Contest you'll have to design a deck along the contest guidelines and throw it into the arena with other competitors' entries! At the end of every two weeks, a winner will be determined by forum poll, and the winner decides the challenge for the next fortnight's Contest! Here we go, competitors: our ninety-third challenge!
The winner of the “Twice Upon a Dawn“ poll was ZephyrPhantom with...  |
{Comments}A Bant deck built around the power of democracy. And by democracy, we mean using Greater than One, Brago's Representative, and Ballot Broker to gather up as many like-minded voters as possible to mass smite your foes with the one-sided wrath of Trial of a Time Lord and Council's Judgment! You know, something doesn't sound entirely right about how you described that.Well, yes, that is what happens when you have to omit things like political parties and all the more complicated bits. |
And the challenge issued by our winner was... Please provide a decklist using deckstats, tappedout or similar. Feel free to add some comments as they will be included in the final poll. Please provide a deck name as well as choose a card to represent your deck in the poll.And now, time to begin the challenge! Best of luck, competitors! |

A deck build around the strongest cards (aka, staples) in the Pauper Commander format, while still being inside a playable deck. It uses the, in PEDH, broken mechanics Initiative, Monarch and OneManaBasicLandTypeCyclers. Also, Stickers 
The hearts are, of course, the commander, as well as Mind Stone. |

To give this a bump, this is the deck I'm working on:
To fulfill the given challenge, this deck is based on the following two cards..:
That's right, this deck is based on two basic lands Post Malone doodled on to! 
Rather than entering a pure joke deck though, I decided to start working on a Azorius Aethermage Pauper Commander deck - selfbounce tribal should be an interesting challenge  |

Don't forget good old Kor Skyfisher. Also, Clockwork Fox can give you some value as well: it cares about leaving, not dying (besides all the etb effects you'll be putting in of course). Also also, Candlekeep Sage. And if you want to be a donkey: Reality Acid (tutorable as well!). |

@ sdfkjgh: Pauper Commander, so only commons are allowed in the 99
But yeah, the deck will basically be like a twist on a typical blink deck. Realistically speaking, I could easily add some blinking spell staples like Ephemerate, but I already decided to not do this. |

And here we go - btw we could totally use some more votes in the current poll
(Pauper Commander)
This was quite an interesting deck to put together. While on the one hand there are some obvious similarities with a typical blink deck, there are quite a few differences still. Runaway Boulder has a nice ETB ability, but recasting  every time you'd bounce it really isn't worth the effort, so the deck contains way more mana value 1 or 2 bounce targets. Walking Atlas definitely deserves its spot not only for the additional lands you draw, but also because of some sweet land bouncing options. And lastly it's quite interesting how cards like Curfew can fuel my own strategy while at the same time slow down the other players as well.
In the end, probably not the strongest deck for sure, but you should have quite some fun playing this deck.
