Pauper - Toxic Bant Stompy
Aggro
Main Deck:
Phyrexia's new toxic mechanic makes for a fun brew, but isn't as diverse in pauper as infect. This deck relies on being as fast as possible and using creatures that give a reasonable amount of toxic counters in one hit. Crawling Chorus and Branchblight Stalker provide cheap creatures that can be buffed for the late game, with Chorus' added bonus of creating a mite when it dies which gives it some defensive merit. Plague Nurse is one of the main combo pieces for this deck. It boosts the toxic value of your creatures by one for the turn which makes your cheap creatures and free mites a lot more impressive whilst also making Tyrranax Atrocity hit for toxic 4 or toxic 5, which could easily close out the game.
All the instants and soceries in this deck provide either extra mites to go wide with, card draw, or proliferate. They have low costs across the board, allowing for multiple proliferate effects later on in the game to stack counters on your opponent.
The depletion lands in this deck synergise with the proliferate mechanic, keeping them on the battlefield for a lot longer and ramping nicely into the larger creature spells in the deck, or creating the mana for several instants and sorceries to be cast per turn.
Sideboard:
Sunscape reduces the cost of most of the main deck, while Crashing Drawbridge gives all of your creatures haste for the turn. Giving creatures with toxic haste makes them much more effective and allows you to go wide with mites, buff them and then attack for lethal all in one turn.
Aspirant's Ascent gives your Thrummingbirds and Basilica Shepherd toxic for the turn so they can be buffed by Plague Nurse, but also allows for Tyrranax Atrocity to go up and over other creatures to avoid being slowed down by blockers. Carnivorous Canopy gives some low-level removal; Gaea's Gift for trample and hexproof; and Tormod's Crypt for a little graveyard hate.
