Deck Description

[u]Basic idea[/u]
Seeing revolt7717's UR-Aggro (https://www.mtgvault.com/revolt7717/decks/ur-aggro-2/) simply made me wanting to build a pauper Prowess deck

[u]Tests[/u]
I have tested this deck against other pauper decks. The decks I tested against are a mixture of Control and Aggro and the result are recorded in a spreadsheet. If you're interested in details from the spreadsheet, feel free to ask.

I'm open to all suggestions and ideas that may help to improve this deck.

How to Play

The deck performs slower than I wanted it to as you will need to get more than one creature on the field, to effectively use your spells, and all those cost 2 mana or more. The hardest thing when playing this deck is to get a feeling when to use a spell to pump your creatures for attacking, and when to better hold it back for defensive play.
[[Sky Theater Strix]] has a built in veasion, while [[Elusive Spellfist]] becomes unblockable when playing a non-creature spell. For all other creatures you will need [[Artful Dodge]] or [[Shimmering Wings]] to make sure that the damage get's past your opponents defence.

I normally would have though that this would drift more into an izzet colour combination, but Seeker of the Way is simply too good not to be taken and red had a lack of good, cheap, common prowess-creatures. Personally I also try to avoid 3-coloured pauper decks, because the mana-base seems rather unstable and difficult to built.
