Welcome back Pauper fam! This week, we discuss a Sam Black theory article that breaks down card advantage into two major concept pillars of Big Games and Small Games. We apply these concepts to Pauper and dig into how to use this information in your games and deck choices. Plus some tournament updates from our last week of Pauper action! Thank you as always for listening!
