![]() ![]() Think for example of Kuldotha Jeskai decks, that already play some tokens ( Kuldotha Rebirth) and evasive creatures ( Glint Hawk and Kor Skyfisher). Rally the Peasants it's not strictly better than those cards but it can create so much damage that even decks that are not fully reliant on tokens might find one or two slots for it. Rally the PeasantsĮffects like the one provided by Rally the Peasants already see play in white based token decks that combine token generating cards with Ramosian Rally and (Guardian's Pledge) to finish the game really quickly. That deck also got some new interesting toys in the meantime with the printing of the Vessel in Shadows over Innistrad and the Font cycle in Journey into Nix, so we might see a new version popping out. Not really a new card, since we already had Auramancer in the format, but still an interesting card as some decks that relied on returning Dead Weight to hand with Auramancer have already seen some play in the past and Monk Idealist provides some redundancy to them. It is worth nothing that it is also an enabler for War Falcon, a card that already saw some play in White Weenie in the past and could now be making a comeback alongside Vanguard. Elite Vanguard won't be shaking the format upside down anytime soon but it will totally be a mainstay in White Weenie and W/x aggressive decks. Now, for the first time we get such creature at common, and even with a more relevant creature type to booth. Long gone are the days where a one mana 2/1 without drawbacks, namely Savannah Lions, was good enough to be printed at rare (and it was actually a good one!). Notice that I'm not gonna review all the commons in the set, but I'm limiting myself to the ones that will appear as a common on mtgo for the first time (Those are actually the new cards in pauper, that will be legal in the format for the first time) and at the same time are high enough in power level to be have a chance at seeing play in the format (I see no reason to talk about cards that will never be relevant in the format). In the following I will review the new additions, looking for the most powerful and interesting cards. ![]() This, of course, it's not true for the annual Masters set, where we get some new cards printed as commons, cards that used to have a higher rarity! Every Masters set offers several new playable cards for Pauper and Eternal Masters is not different. Usually, I always get disappointed when full spoilers are released: Pauper is a format with a very high power level and Wizards mostly prints limited-fodder cards as common now, meaning that new cards that are able to impact the format are few and far between. Unlike most other players I have been playing only Pauper in the last few years, therefore whenever a new set comes out I'm mostly interested in commons.
