I suppose it's pretty easy to assume that I consider Inspiring Overseer to be the best Streets of New Capenna card for Pauper. That doesn't mean, however, that there aren't some interesting options to consider for Pauper, just that many of the cards included won't go directly into any well-established archetype, but rather into more strategies that are still in development and need further development and more support to work. There's nothing similar to Experimental Synthesizer or Moon-Circuit Hacker in the new set, and maybe not even anything close to Blood Fountain.įrom a broader perspective, I consider it natural that Pauper isn't so favored in this release, as New Capenna is essentially geared towards multicolored factions and this naturally distributes a higher power level to cards that include more than one or two colors in the set, while monocolored common cards end up becoming just draft support material to “hold the ties” between uncommon and rare. However, Streets of New Capenna, in a broad view, seems to bring few relevant pieces to the format if we compare it to Neon Dynasty, being perhaps closer to Innistrad: Midnight Hunt or Crimson Vow in the sense that there are specific pieces that can be useful for certain archetypes, but without the inclusion of cards with effects that automatically make them staples. Pauper has gone through a dozen significant changes in recent months, both in direct interventions with bans and the inclusion of more powerful cards in recent releases, especially in Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty.
