I noticed there aren't too many pauper primers on here, obviously thee are a million other primers on the forums and you can just read then then switch in commons, but I don't know what the good commons are. Could this be a thread to request Pauper Primers?
I am certainly glad to see that we have a stickied request thread now, and that the Pauper / Peasant section is getting a little attention.
I think the obvious things we need to work on would be the staples and some miscellaneous ones. Another thing that would be good is to also include a Peasant primer within it so we don't end up with almost duplicate primers such as Zombie pauper and Zombie Peasant.
1: Mono Black Control
2: Affinity
3: Infect
4: Mono Blue Control
5: Turbo-Fog ~ As I recall I think Obermeir is going to work on this.
I suppose I could really do my homework and come up with one, but I've got a real noob understanding when it comes to Magic, I'm still trying to break out of my Timmy shell that's been trapped in 1999 - that includes both Magic and all other aspects of my life.
Though I s'pose a Pauper Infect primer can pretty much write itself. I'll see what I can come up with this weekend.
I've requested a Pauper Primer subforum for this subforum. I guess that makes it a subsubforum?
I'll move the existing primers there as soon as it's online. However, before posting new primers in that forum, just run it by a mod / post in the main Pauper forum first.

Thank you very much for your help in expanding the Pauper / Peasant section. I also see that "Paper" was added to the forum name to make a clear seperation between online and the paper format. I am glad this section is getting some much needed attention.
I will be working on an Affinity primer as soon as I have the time (within a few days if not sooner).
I would totally love to see a Mono Blue or a Faeries Control Primer! Not sure if they are the same thing or different but Faeries seems really fun to me with all the flashy countering goodness!
They're quite different decks ~ Zombies is generally in a Suicide Black/MBA shell, and Faeries isn't necessarily MonoU.
Personally I find control very interesting and fun to play. Whether it be mono blue or Faeries is irrelevant to me. Faeries just adds a bit more fun for me. So whatever the dominant archetype for a Pauper control deck (predominantly U, I don't like mono B control) is what I'd like to see.
Could someone please make a Mono-Black Control Primer. That way people don't look to the Mono-Black Aggro Primer for help or with Mono-Black Control type suggestions.

It would be nice to have our own primer for paper Pauper (unfortunately, I don't think anyone here knows/ plays the archetype very well), but in any case, here's the link to the online one: http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showthread.php?t=377278

I agree, it would be nice to have one. But admittedly I do not like the arch type so I wouldn't know where to begin nor would I want to learn lol.. (RATS is the closest I would get.)
I think I will throw up a Pauper/Peasant Soldier/Knight primer though.
I'd like to see a Pauper Zombie primer.

We'll come back to a Pauper Primer subforum idea once we get a few more primers written. In the meantime, I'm going to sticky this.

You want to try your hand at making a primer?

I suppose I could make another primer.
I'll look into all available cards to see if it is best to merge zombies into a MBC primer or keep them seperate. Same for MUC and faeries.

I am sure you know by now but your posts were merged, but I did give a full suggestion of cards in the new primer now.

Pestilence is a lot of fun! I'll be doing some more in depth testing once I've finished with more of the matchups for MUC.
