Strategy

Orzhov Midrange is a Pauper deck in Magic: The Gathering that focuses on controlling the game with a mix of removal spells, creatures, and disruptive elements. The deck's strategy is to disrupt opponents with cards like Duress and deadly Dispute while also controlling the battlefield with cards like Cast Down and Troll of Khazad-dûm. The deck can generate card advantage with cards like Thraben Inspector and Glint Hawk, and it can also gain life with cards like Dawnbringer Cleric and Arms of Hadar. One of the strengths of the deck is its ability to grind out games and outvalue opponents with its card advantage and resilient threats. The deck's mana base is stable with a mix of Plains and Swamps along with dual lands like Orzhov Basilica and Bojuka Bog. The inclusion of artifact lands like Vault of Whispers and Ancient Den also helps enable metalcraft for cards like Etched Champion. The deck also has some graveyard hate with cards like Relic of Progenitus and Nihil Spellbomb, which can be crucial against certain strategies. However, one weakness of the deck is its vulnerability to aggressive strategies, as it can sometimes be slow to set up its game plan. Additionally, the deck's mana base can be a bit clunky at times, especially with cards like Obscura Storefront that require specific colors of mana. Overall, Orzhov Midrange is a versatile and resilient deck that can compete well in the Pauper format with the right pilot and sideboard options.
