Deck Description

Take Jeskai and make it cooler...

If you want to go Grixis in Pauper, you are going to be slotting Snuff Out and Thorn into either Izzet Terror, or Jeskai Ephemerate decks. I have done plenty of the former, now it's time for the latter.

Fundamentally, we are replacing all the extreme grindy potential of Archeomancer, Mulldrifter, and Ephemerate with a single Grim Harvest (and the ability to find it using Mystical Teachings). The rest of the deck is removal, card advantage, card selection, and Crypt Incursion which serves double duty of allowing us to survive against Sneaky Snackers & Dredge, and giving us access to a tutorable lifegain bomb.

Is this competitive? Fuck if I know! I have yet to play it against a meta deck, but the idea at least is solid. At least as solid as Jeskai Ephemerate, but that deck is near the bottom of Tier 2 right now soooooo....

How to Play

Play a reactive game while getting ahead on cards. Eventually, Murmuring Mystic with or without Grim Harvest is too much for any deck to overcome. Or so we hope anyways.

Deck discussion for Pauper Grixis Wildfire

Would Troll of Khazad-dûm be an option in here, since it ditches itself for mana and then becomes viable later as a target for Grim Harvest?

In a more black-centric build, yeah. But since we only have 2 swamps, not really. All you really need to win is Mystic anyway, the card takes over the game so rapidly it's kind of insane.
