I also thought about the Skycaptain, but I don't want to cut a non-5-mana creature for the Eagle, as I already have so many 5 drops. I fear the Eagle has to keep out at the moment. I think I also have to give up the bandar and wrangle. I have to identify cards that aren't getting picked first.
Now that there has been time to play around with the cards a bit, any comments on what has worked and what hasn't?
I am a bit behind with updating my cube, but I am surprised that there is no mention of Irontread Crusher here. Do you think it could have a place in pauper? A 6/6 beater for 4 is pretty solid for a common.
A 6/6 beater for 4 would be solid, but costing 3 power for that is a real cost. You can get a 5/4 trampler for cmc 3 and crew 2, though I could see the want for another vehicle if that one doesn't seem sufficient.
big vanilla guys are pretty bad, since every creature and its mother can block it. if you want a cheap big vehicle run Aradara Express
the difference between crew 3 and 4 should be minior.
For the experimenters out there, how has Bastion Inventor been? I imagine if you get even a 1 discount it must be pretty good. I'm just now getting around to proper evaluations and the big butt + hexproof seems like a big deal in pauper
i havent played him yet, but i included both. i assume he is slightly worse than benthic, but hexproof is such an overpowered mechanic that it belongs to the cube.
I would argue Wrangle over Flurry of Horns
Maybe Kujar Seedsculptor if you need Bandar. They semi-compete.
