    I love me some pauper, I actually just redownloaded MTGO because the pauper itch struck me again.

    Question, I’m just getting back into the format after a few years of not touching magic. What happened to Tron? It used to be one of the best decks but I don’t see it anywhere anymore.

      I haven’t played in a minute but I used to do pauper 5c tron in mtgo leagues years ago, the meta is so much faster now and there have been a couple of bans that have hurt it. Prismatic Prism and Bonder’s Ornament are gone. Tolarian terror decks can have a 5/5 out very early and tron decks are just too slow to keep up. Lots of artifact hate going around. Red decks apparently main Cleansing Wildfire these days…many such cases. I am told some mono green variants can still do some stuff but tron is definitely falling off.
