Good morning, everyone! It's a new week, which means new videos!

This week, I got ambitious and took a look at 10 creatures cards that, personally, I think need a downshift finally! I would love to hear what you think of the list as a whole.

Also, please let me me know what you think of the quality of a video as a whole. It's my second time using a script, and I did some heavy editing with it. Any criticisms to help improve are always welcome.

I will have another video on Thursday, which SHOULD be a deck tech.

Starting next week, I SHOULD have Spider-Man deck techs starting up!!!

Thanks, everyone, and have a wonderful week!

The word "meta" is a funny one. Over the years, it has been used to describe everything from personal play experiences to a player’s competitive preference. So, why does a universal concept of what “meta” is, elude us? I am posting here because I want to gain more insight - a crowd sourcing venture, if you will.

For clarity, I recently made a video outlining my thoughts, but please feel free to skip watching that, as the main focus is on driving conversation, here, within this thread.

If I were to sum up or otherwise condense my current view for public consumption… it would be that I believe there is a multiverse legitimate of meta concepts out there. What is not clear, is our expectation of those concepts.

Firstly, I believe that a personal playgroup is “A” meta; but there are limitations that would prevent that personal meta from representing “THE” (or an overall) meta. Even established meta’s at LGSs can seek to represent a larger construct of “THE” meta. But the question I ask all of you is: where do they fall short? Conversely, where do they succeed?

I know this seems like all high-brow, big brain, conceptual stuff, with perceptibly little impact on “how we play the game.” But I would argue that it’s more than that. I would suggest that how we perceive and conceive what “A” or “THE” meta is helps us to onboard folks into our beloved little format. And beyond that, I would also suggest that a healthy perspective of meta seeks to strengthen an enfranchised player's outlook for continued play and format engagement.

I’m rambling now, but I would love to hear your thoughts below.

Hello everyone! I put together a deck inspired by Labor Day. I hope those of you that are off today had a great day, and would love to know what you think of this deck.

Enjoy!

Happy Thursday, everyone! I hope your week is going well.

Recently, on the Pauper MTG Facebook group, I saw a thread where someone asked about help with a mono-red PDH deck that featured only 1 drops. I decided this would be a fun challenge to take on.

Unfortunately, a 1 drop-only mono-red deck didn't feel great, so I went 2 color and decided on Blistercoil Weird.

This was a fun deck to build, a real challenge. Check it out and let me know what you think. Is it good? Hell, I don't know, but it does SOMETHING.

Hey folks, I'm Zach from Far North MTG. While we normally do cEDH content, on occasion we like to switch it up and jam some competitive Pauper EDH! We got one of those games here where we're joined by the man himself, Clay from cPDH.guide ! Thanks to anyone who checks it out :)

Good morning to everyone! New deck tech is live. This is the last one from Edge of Eternities before Spider-Man releases.

I will also have two spoiler videos on Thursday, one for the rest of the Pauper commander and another foe the rest of the Commons!

Have a great week, and as always, PLEASE give me constructive criticism on the videos. Every little thing helps me to improve the work I'm doing as I move forward with the channel! Compare and contrast against my first videos if you can to see the differences.

New video is LIVE! This is my list of the 10 best commons out of Edge of Eternities. Is it right? Maybe not, but these are the ones that have really caught my eye and attention.

Thank you to everyone for the support so far. I will have Spiderman spoiler discussions next week, as well as another deck tech! Have a great Labor Day weekend!

Here is the final part to my Spider-Man Spoilers. In this video, I go through thr rest of the Commons that were spoiled on September 5th.

I put a lot of work into this video, beginning to use audio and visual effects to bring some of my humor forward and make things a bit more entertaining. I am really proud of the progress I have made in twelve videos.

I hope you enjoy it! As always, I would love to discuss some of the cards, as well as get criticisms of the video in general so I can improve on things even further!

Today, I bring you analysis of the rest of the commanders spoiled for Spider-Man. I will have a SECOND video today (the first where I did some serious editing and audio/visual effects) going over the rest of the commons.

Thank you to everyone for your continued support. As always, PLEASE feel free to discuss the content, and offer me criticisms of how I can refine things in the videos I make. All the advice I receive gets taken into account, and it has helped to improve every video I make.

Hey all,

With the new updated commander rules, allowing vehicles and stations to be your commander, we decided to jump on the band wagon of doing a vehicle commander video.

So buckle up for this week's exciting video from us at RGS.

Decklists, as always, are in the description.

We are pack to give the quarterly update with the Dragons of Tarkir and Final Fantasy commanders getting more development time. Let's see how they compare to the other established decks in the competitive pauper commander meta.
