Hi, New scred player, but have grinded a LOT of mtgo the last two weeks.
Ive done a spredsheet of my matchups with win loss, and what name I thought was right for the deck I was playing against.
The spreadsheet is in a attached picture.
Some comments on the matchups with more matches:
Jeskai: They don't have enough counterspells to keep everything of the board, Remember boardwipes for game two for Geist of saint traft. Easy matchup
5C humans: Bloodmoon + sweepers and targeted removal makes the matchup easy. Getting Thalia of the bord on turn two/three helps a lot. Easy
Amulet titan: Mainboard bloodmoons keeps us alive long enough to skred the titans and pressure them with planeswalkers. Dependent on draw
Any Tron: Pretty much the worst matchup i have played against, there never seems to be a way to get them, maby with SSG for turn two moon. Feels impossible.
Jund: Interesting matchup, seems to be in our favour because of mainboard relic. haste takes care of liliana. Medium, with a lot of choices.
Storm: Feels like it's in storms favour, but not as impossible as it looks on paper, Relic and removal helps, i use Eidolon in sideboard for these. Hard
Affinity: In affinity's favour, but 1 or 2 more dedicated sideboard cards could tip it in our favour. dont be afraid to bolt turn 1 plays even if you have a sweeper. Hard but possible.
Eldrazitron: see tron.
Burn: Super hard matchup, needs 4 dragons claw in sideboard to have a chance, running 3, and it's not enough. Hard but can be done.
I wrote down stats on all games from when i started to now at 100 games.
What I have noticed is that midrange and control is good matchups.
Aggro and decks going wide is medium.
graveyard based decks are ok.
Combo is super hard.
Big mana tron is impossible. the hope is to dodge these decks.
Decklist: The deck is not optimal or up to date, but it still performs fairy well.
If you want the "feeling" of being filthy rich,(much the same as being filthy rich)
get a good paying "homeoffice" job that you can work from wherever in the world and move to Africa or another low cost place compared to maybe 97/98% of the people there you will be filthy rich.
Thats about the only "easy" way I can think of that ain't illegal.
This is how I see it, a simple picture is attached to show what I think should be a OK compromise.
I also support eating less meat than what is currently the standard in most Western population.
Lets face it, people are getting fat and lazy and don't need the amount of protein and fat that people needed back in the days when they actually were active.
This was my second EDH deck, and the only one i haven't taken cards from to make other decks.
(pictures on the bottom) some pimp
Its been changed some times, and also pimped some times so i thought it would do the deck good to post it here and get some criticism on the deck, and its not a good deck tho, but its fun to try to play a general with such an impressive drawback.
Hi.
Just thought I could post my cube here to get some feedback on the cards I have chosen.
The cube is inspired by several of the other pauper cubes on the forum, and also by the cards I have laying around
The cube is currently a 375 Card cube
If anyone sees any cards that obviously should be in the cube, or not be in the cube, please let me know I want it to be as powerful as it can be.

@ Stoyrm . Great alter of the progenitus, saw it in real life at Arcon last weekend.
Here is two alters that my brother did for me, EDH generals. Reaper King and Lord of Tresserhorn.
