Welcome back Pauper fam! This week we sat down with local friend and Discord regular Jonathan Collins (aka Brute) for a laidback discussion and storytime episode, mostly centered around Jonathan's first constructed Magic experience being competitive Pauper! From getting the round 3 bye at locals to finishing 9th on breakers at the 2nd Common Ground Cup in just a few weeks time, we dig into his journey learning Terror and the format at large. Lots of laughs to be had and plenty of insight for newer players, whether in paper or on MTGO. Thank you as always for listening!
