Yesterday we had our pauper event fire off with a whole TEN people I'm very happy, it's the most we've been yet :) Before, we were mostly 4-6 people. These days we're more around 6-10, which is awesome

I was playing Dimir infect as you can see! The list is in the alt text.
This deck is a lot of fun, and in many ways more consistent than mono green. However, here were my match ups, went 1-2 overall.
VS Bogles, 1-2. Was on the draw, lost the 1st one cause I couldn't go quick enough. Second one, I resolve a stinger, put a 5/1 sticker on it t3, opp doesn't find an answer, scoop. Miss played g3 : I wanted to get some life back and offensively used unexpected fangs on my dude. However I had forgotten about Ram Through and my creature was removed. I was not quick enough to rebuild and I lost this way. This was very winnable however!
VS Boros synth, 1-2. Here I know opp has a lot of removals : journey to nowhere post board, but also 4 bolts, 4 galvanic and 3 foundry helix (I was lending the deck so I know the decklist very well ahah). I tried my best to protect my things, however I made several slight mistakes. Similarly I was on the draw and won one game by being able to pass through my opp unhindered. Last game I had a moment of confusion and tried to protect an attacker from a krark clan shaman with Apostle's blessing. However! I had other creatures and blessing is actually a card I should use on offense! I would've been able to win if I had done it like that. Too bad but we'll, I'm learning!
VS Boros, 2-0. My sole win of the evening! Same principle as the last match BUT I had just learnt from my mistakes so I made better plays. Opp was also unprepared for infect and had a hard time adjusting to the threat. Game 2 I just kept a kind of greedy hand : no creatures, yes! But island and 2 ponders... And you know what they say, island ponder = keep! And I was able to stack my deck in such a way that I never missed a land drop, got a creature, AND godly protection. 3 Apostle's blessing and 2 dispels, as well as 2 command performance! I had everything to shrug off my opp's removal and attack without fear, which just got him.
I had a lot of fun even tho I lost the two first matches. Now what I've got to do is get more experience with it, notably with sideboarding. I have a kind of hard time figuring out how to sideboard here because I feel like I can keep my entire deck ahah, everything is relevant! I have a lot of leeway for improvement.
Thanks for reading, I hope you too wherever you are, have enjoyed some pauper recently, or plan to!!

i've come to realize that whenever i play any kind of multiplayer game my immediate unconscious strategy is to just be as annoying as possible to my opponents. like i don't even care if i win i'm just trying to be a Nuisance

Here's some unwritten rule of edh:
If you play slivers you're just a shit person. You are genuinely not a good person, and if you think you are, then unfortunately you're lying to yourself, and you need therapy.
If you play infect, no one is going to want to ever play with you again and you're also not a good person. It's right up there with slivers a close second. Don't do it.
Also, for fucks sake, learn what deodorant is and shower. Please. Have some decency.

3-0 at the weekly with stickers infect!!!
2-1 vs altar tron. He played a version with wizard's rockets and candy trails. Just went fast enough while leaving protection for my creatures not to die. Folded game 2 to a makeshift munition I didn't see coming and then prepared game 3 with blue blasts which worked well enough, and won on a countered crop rotation.
2-1 kuldotha burn. Lost g1 and then remembered the tip someone gave me on discord : side out all infect creatures, side in blasts, sprites, and fangs. I sided out the Apostle's blessings too to achieve that. Was easy then with a 7/3 lifelink saiba + gates.
2-0 vs elves. I just went fast enough that he didn't kill me first. Sided in some fangs and vendetta g2, and it won me the match, since the 6hp I won back put me just out of his board's reach.
Compared to last time, I cut 2 supernatural stamina and 1 unearth and put 3 spell pierces. Figured I didn't use them a lot and Moar counters do moar work. Well it worked out nicely! My altar tron opponent spent the game playing around them, not knowing I also had dispels in. It cost him the last game eheh. I chose to let 1 unearth in because I didn't know if I wanted a 4 pierce and since stickers stay I the gy... I saw it multiple times but had no use for it since my opponents didn't have enough removal. There's also discussion to remove the vendettas but I don't know with what yet so I let them in.
Had a lot of fun with the deck eheh I love infect!!! It brings me joy to flip out PRIMAL ELDER KITTY.

My toxic trait is that whenever I deal damage to a player, they get that any poison counters

Why the fuck are two out of three historic decks I play against Infect? Half of those are the same netdeck shit which is worse, like bitch? you not only use the most bitch ass game mechanic but you cant even be assed to make your own deck?
I win most of the time because they don't know jack shit about playing their copied deck but its boring as fuck.
