It's a fun journey, especially because Standard Pauper decks are so cheap to make, so experimentation isn't a huge financial burden.
Also check in with Avery61 here on the forums. He's a major fan of the Standard Pauper format.

It's a fun journey, especially because Standard Pauper decks are so cheap to make, so experimentation isn't a huge financial burden. Also check in with Avery61 here on the forums. He's a major fan of the Standard Pauper format. I am drawn to both the cost and subtleties of the Standard Pauper format. As stated by numerous people far smarter than I am on the subject, there are no "earth-shattering" effects in this format...instead, it is more like a game of Go, where two people compete in a game of strategy with relatively equal pieces. I will touch base with Avery61 to see if he can give an FNG a few pointers on getting smart in Standard Pauper... Thank you for the help....

Yeah ~ Standard Pauper is the best format on MTGO to me. There aren't a lot of articles out there but there are two events a week - SPDC & MPDC, one on Mondays and the other on Thursdays. There is one article you can check out ~ www.standardpauperweekly.blogspot.com/2013/03/march-18-march-22.html as well as coverage on the PTTP podcast and some at mtgostrat.com. Selesnya & Boros are two good places to start, both have a good balance of control vs. aggro but lean towards aggro, boros much more so of course.
