The Proper Pauper Guide To FOG Tron - A Magic: The Gathering Deck Tech 

The same math that got us 1+1+1=7 also gave us 1.67×2=33.4.

I was today years old when I realized you can respond to evoke triggers

I can't believe it but this is my EXACT pauper Tron list. This is amazing. It took me so long to figure out all the combos but they're all listed in this video and I'm gonna use this as a reference forever. Thank you so much for this video honestly 😊

Ulamog's Crusher for Life! Side note: Excellent job with the video formatting, it just felt very smooth & easy to look at

I was like "RIW? Michigan? I hope it's the Livonia location" then I heard the pronunciation and didn't know where it was and when I realized it was Livonia I was like "YES"

When $1.67 moments peace adds to $33.4 you know you've got a deal

Am I the only one who misses the great pauper event decks?

Awesome new video prof! Thinking back to some of your first couple of deck techs it makes me happy to see you continue to push the limits of high quality mtg content. You've really help make the mtg community overall grow and refine so much, thank you for your hard work.

Prof, your pronunciation of Livonia is my favorite thing ever. You made a MI resident very happy.

Thanks for the help! Tutoring into a tutor is one of those tips I really enjoy learning about.

Great video Prof. Love the explanations that you place with the deck tech.

I like that pronunciation of Livonia. 11/10

Super excited to see you in my area playing at RIW!

I've already built a Pauper deck that is similar to modern reanimate but I still enjoyed watching and seeing what other builds are available as Pauper has never caught traction at my LGS. Seems interesting. Keep up the good work Professor.

This deck looks so fun! I remember getting blown out by a similar build at the LA pauper MCQ. It didn't have that red removal though. I definitely want to build this. Thanks!

Great deck tech. Would love to see you do a pauper collab with caleb ganon. Keep up the great work prof.

Dude RIW??? YES! They also hold a weekly proxy legacy thing! I don't have a pauper deck but I will build one for you man

Thank you for years of quality entertainment prof

Great timing ! I just ordered some cards for a Tron deck, but I went for the Temur version with the Fangren and Rolling thunder :)

I'm a huge fan of your old Acid Trip deck, and I'd love to see an updated run of that deck based on what's currently available in the format!

Loving the new editing style. Reminds me of Sam's style.

you had me at pauper.

I am still a beginner magic the gathering card player and I learn so much from your videos

Holy shit. I live in Ann Arbor. I'm gonna go see the professor! And I don't even play Pauper!

I'm actually waiting for this deck in the mail!!

I didn't even realise I had the skeletal pieces of a dinrova tron deck for pauper. I dont have the urza lands but I saw in my collection dinrova and ghostly flicker and thought it was a hilariously evil combo. Although I don't have the wall I was using archemancer to get my flickers back as well as messing with a deadeye navigator but he wouldn't be used in pauper. Thank you for this video! :)

thank you , very very well explained , awesome work!

This deck looks super fun! I’m really enjoying all of these pauper deck techs, although I really miss the Advanced Modern Studies and I would love to see them return. Maybe an episode on 5 color Niv or bant Soulherder?

Oh sweet, Livonia is only a couple hours from here! I may need to start putting together a pauper deck...

I'd love to see a deck tech on Twiddle Field, that new Modern deck that runs off of Twiddle and Lotus Field. I play the deck, but I'm always looking for ways to improve it!

7:27 that's some weird calculations

Omg you're coming so close to me! I'll definitely tune up my deck and head there! Oh btw Prof, it's not Linvoia as your pronounced: it's Live-own-ia

My favorite common in magic was cloudshift. How did I miss that they printed strictly better cloudshift?

Hello, professor, I’m CKG and I’m your fan of review of card sleeves playmats and deck boxes, when I get a notification I watched your review and it very interesting plus last year I bought quiver deck case because I was having a hard time of stored my deck boxes in my bag and searched my deck in my bag but thanks to you I have no problem at all. I have a request for you what is best playmat tubes in 2019 because I heard that there’s monster dual playmat tubes that you can store two playmats and Matpod from ultimate guard so please make a video of playmat tubes review

Aw yeah, more pauper is always a pleasure

Yassssssss will be in my state if I didn’t have to work I would see but this is awesome

Deck tech The Perfect Storm (Weather the Storm + Epicure of Blood combo)

will build this instantly

I don't know if any such deck exists in the current Pauper meta/banlist, but I'd certainly like to see an Izzet spellslinger list of some kind.

I have been tweaking my deck for months to prepare for this 1k and the fact that i might be able to challenge you to a game or to to test my wits is exhilerating

My Tron Decklist is my Modern Mono White Tron Tokens. Aside from some Lingering Souls and Raise the Alarms to generate a buffer force, I focus on bombs like Finale of Glory, Entreat the Angels, White Sun's Zenith, and Secure the Wastes. Obviously I run Intangible Virtues and then I have a number of removal spells and control spells. Oblivion Rings, Mana Tithe (that can stiffel early ramp or burn), etc. It did surprisingly well the first time I made an iteration of it (less control) and I feel like my current list of it might do better. I just have to balance lands and control but I don't think I have that worked out well enough yet. I got my tron land numbers and expedition maps but card draw is also obviously lacking. I wonder if something like Astrolabe or Prism would be a good choice because of the card draw.

I have a similar list but without the update from Modern Horizons. I don't tlike the idea of throwing Astrolabe into every deck and thus, snow lands, but I understand it's power level. This hasn't been my style of deck at all, but the few times that I've played it have been incredibly fun, finding ways to fend off opponents to the point where you can come back. I actually ended up adding 2 Rolling Thunder to have a way to clear out the board, or just go straight for their face.

A little late, but I would love to see a lands deck in Pauper. Don't know how to make it work, but I'm sure you could figure it out!

you can blink your urza's tower also! wow!

Awesome tech 👏

I love your channel i will keep watching and giving positive feedback

I personally have loved using the protection enchantments I have a 2 copys of pro red and 1 copy of pro black though delver grimag has fallen out so may go to remove the pro black for something else.

A question for you to test Professor. Would a plumbing pipe, and two plumbing end caps work well for a playmat case? It's strong, water resistant, cheap, and available at most hardware stores. It would be like the Stanley case you should a few years ago

Looking for a ban at Arcum's Astrolabe is turning a blind eye to the elephant in the room, Ephemerate. This is the card that has not only been powering up tron, as you mentioned, but also leads to absurd card draw with evoked mulldrifters (potentially drawing 6 for 4 mana), as well as perpetual removal/counterspell when paired with Archaeomancer to fish a Skred or Counterspell from your graveyard. Ephemerate also reduces tremendously the effect of possible graveyard hate to stop it's loops, being always a net positive effect due to Rebound's nature. Example: You have a Relic of Progenitus on board, and at the end of your endstep, the opponent ephemerates his Archaeomancer to bring back a Counterspell. Do you crack the relic when the Archaeomancer targets the counterspell, or do you wait for the rebound cast during your opponent's upkeep to try to take away his Ephemerate? Both options are very risky, because not only the opponent already got value from the ephemerate, but if he has another one in hand (remember that he just untapped his lands), he can even save the one you tried to exile while keeping both.

Do the Mirran Spy and Banishing Knack combo next!

The music was really groovy!

I brewed my first Pauper deck today.

I really think you should also play a Rolling Thunder as a way to finish games. I once played in a nearby tournament with a similar list without anything to finish off my opponent and timed out my matches and lost.

thank you for hte deck tek I have a brand new lgs i want to support and they are having a WIN A BOX pauper tournament this coming weekend. ive never payed pauper but really wanted to go to support the new store... thanks for the affordable deck im buying it NOW on cardkingdom and going this coming sunday. thanks again proff (the fact you showed how to use the deck is why i am willing to buy it you really went out of your way with this one.. HOMERUN)

I Wonder if wizards intend to reprint tron lands anytime soon

Would like a review of those "yourplaymat" playmats plzzz.

As a Michigander the way the Prof pronounced Livonia triggered me so hard.

Pauper for life

I read that as fRog tron. Expecting yargle.

Does Arcum's Astrolabe itself generate snow mana, since it is a snow permanent?

What do you think about having one copy of Darksteel Citadel so that Trinket Mage could find it?

The video says 4 Expedition Maps, but the description says 2 Expedition Maps, which does total to 60 cards so I believe the description is correct.

Awesome. I was just at riw hobbies the other day.

HEY HEY Prof!!

I haven't played Pauper before. I just saw the Professor upload and said ayeeeeee. Is this basicly like standard but with uncommons only?

OK, I have a question...since you are supposed to actually exile Ephemerate until your next turn, can you really do the loop with the mnemonic wall, as I don't think it would be able to target the ephemerate that should be in exile?

Is Trinket Mage’s ability to tutor for artifact lands part of intended design?

Isn't this like making a deck tech for Hogaak, Early 2000s Standard Affinity, Temur Energy, or Cawblade?

What's that art at 5:30??? It strikes me how beautiful the composition is.

13:18 LSV would be proud

Problems with Arcum's Astrolabe? I have an easy fix. Unban Hymn to Tourach.

What cards are you recommending to replace Astrolabe since the announcement of today’s banned list in Pauper?

what do we do when there is no expedition map?

More Arcum's Astrolabe o.o This card is snowballing into so many decks. T-T

when adding all the cards i come at 62 cards...is this corrrect?

You know, I'm somewhat surprised The Instructor didn't make an appearance in this decktech. He's definitely the sort that would enjoy making obscene amounts of mana and repeatedly fogging and removing combat steps while their opponents decide whether or not to concede out of shear misery.

Prof, I just built Temur tron and ordered the list Thursday. Similar list but a bit heavier onto the pulse and Flicker plan. I do like some of the stuff you talked about like compulsive research and ephemerate though, might have to retune. Decklist for those curious: www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/2235332#paper

Feeding the algorithm

Pauper Atog, plz. I wanna compare my list to yers.

ok so what's your win condition? Mill?

4:45 On that note, I'd argue against a ban. It is not so powerful that it breaks the gameplay experience and Prophetic Prism has been everywhere as well and that card isn't being considered a problem either. There have to be more criteria for banning a card than just the card's popularity among deckbuilders.

The combined price for 'Moment's Peace' is incorrect. It's listed as $33.4 - but it's only $1.67 each, with two in the deck. That's $3.34.

I'm curious what this list looks like without Astrolabe, since it's been banned. Pauper seems fun and this deck is right up my alley.

Make sure you come check out The Professor at the event he mentions! facebook.com/events/2395411484006177/

Oh man, I clicked on this video because I thought it said "Frog Tron."

The first 1:52 is just explaining what Tron lands are

Fog my Gary trigger, DO IT! WHERE IS YOUR FOG NOW?

more modern please

Live-own-ya

NO WAY I HAVE TO GO

Hey Prof 😁

Please do a Traxos, scourge of Kroog edh deck tech I have built one that's very fun but I'm interested in how you would build it

Good note about banning having a negligible impact on the deck for anyone who wants to build this but might worry.

So, if the cheaper by 90% Blue Elemental Blast is the same as Hydroblast; why have three Hydroblasts and two Blue Elemental Blasts? ;)

You know you come to my local games store the day the new destiny raid comes out. Balls. Also pronounced Li-Vown-e-ah

Limvola Michigan it's Livonia Michigan

17 likes, and 2 dislikes... came out 1 min ago...and is 17 mins long. Thanks for Pauper deck techs Prof! more deck techs!

My tron list doesn't run urza lands

2:34 Fog U

Anybody know the artwork at 2:40 ?
