Strategy

"Mono-Green Infect" in Pauper is a fast and aggressive deck aiming to win the game quickly by dealing 10 poison counters to the opponent. The deck primarily consists of cheap creatures like Glistener Elf, Blighted Agent, and Ichorclae Myr, combined with pump spells like Might of Old Krosa, Mutagenic Growth, and Groundswell to quickly buff them up and deal infect damage. The strategy focuses on playing infect creatures early on, protecting them with cards like Vines of Vastwood, Apostle's Blessing, and Ranger's Guile, and overwhelming the opponent with quick pumps and combat tricks. Good points of the deck include its speed and resilience against removal due to the proactive nature of the infect mechanic. The deck can often win out of nowhere with a well-timed pump spell, catching the opponent off guard. On the other hand, the deck can struggle against decks with a lot of removal spells or blockers, as it relies heavily on creatures to deal damage. Additionally, since infect creatures deal damage in the form of poison counters rather than reducing the opponent's life total, the deck can have a harder time closing out games against decks with lifegain or alternative win conditions. Overall, Mono-Green Infect in Pauper is a fun and unique deck that offers a different playstyle compared to traditional creature-based strategies in Magic: The Gathering.
