Three decks eliminated from the Pauper Gauntlet!

WARNING! This blog post contains spoilers if you have not watched all of the videos of the second round of the Pauper Gauntlet S02.

The second round is still ongoing. But we have casualties, despite the double elimination nature of the first and second round (the third round will be a bloodbath!)

The weekly show about the Gauntlet
I have joined The Standard Pauper Show as a host for the duration of the Pauper Gauntlet. The second half of the show will be dedicated to the Pauper Gauntlet.

This is the episode for this week where we discuss recent events in the Pauper Gauntlet.

I come in at 35 minutes and the rest of the show is about the Pauper Gauntlet from then on.



So which decks are eliminated?

The following three decks lost both round 1 and round 2 and are thus eliminated from further competition:

Stupid Green Tron
Deathtouch (Assassin's Apprentice)
Pox

For deck lists for these decks check out this link: http://mtgolibrary.blogspot.se/2014/09/the-decks-of-pauper-gauntlet.html


Feature match
This is the battle between Pox and 1-land-spy. It is worthy of notice because the 1-land-spy combo deck just GOES OFF in a way that no Pauper deck should be able to after the bannings. This is high-level combo magic!



What about the rest of the decks?
77 decks entered the Gauntlet. 74 decks remain. However, round 2 is not finished yet. Stay tuned!
