Three bannings and one unbanning today:
Banned: Bridge from Below (Modern) Paradox Engine (Commander) Iona, Shield of Emeria (Commander)
Unbanned: Painter's Servant (Commander)
Not a good day for dredge and colorless commander decks. I have already set a deal to sent my Paradox Engine in for credit online.

Surprised that Goblin Grenade isn't banned in Pauper... They've banned a few pauper cards recently (mostly the good blue cards like Gush and Snap.) Think they want to see how the meta goes for awhile.

Man, a "Rares and mythics cost one less" card would be awesome.
Believe they did an MLP flavored card a year or 2 ago at Hascon.

Today's banned and restricted update:
Standard: Oko, Thief of Crowns is banned Once Upon a Time is banned Veil of Summer is banned
Brawl: Oko, Thief of Crowns is banned
Legacy: Wrenn and Six is banned
Vintage: Narset, Partner of Veils is restricted
Pioneer is coming probably within the hour. I expect Oko to leave their as well.
Edit: Surprisingly no changed to Pioneer so Oko still lives there.

They really need to get back to making answers strong again and so that they affect planeswalkers too.

Trying to build a Pauper Commander deck, using Vizkopa Guildmage as a Commander. Anybody have suggestions to add?

Chiming in with some shots of my collection. A couple of decks here. First one is a mono black Necropotence deck and the other is Skullclamp Affinity.

The build that I'm using for the Necropotence deck has been adjusted for the old school '96 format. Demonic Consultation is restricted, so I've got a Demonic Tutor in the deck to give the deck another tutor spell. Truth to be told, I actually like having Demonic Tutor more than Consultation. Don't get me wrong, Demonic Consultation has its perks of being a tutor you can use at instant speed to fetch something you really need early on or if you're in a jam, but the card itself is a double-edged sword, because if you whiff on it, it can lead to some feel bad moments.
The deck also has a Mind Twist. In a deck that bases its build around card advantage, Mind Twist is a card that you want in this deck. Especially in old school, where you have Ancestral Recall, Timetwister, Wheel of Fortune, Library of Alexandria, etc. Chances are, you're going to be using Mind Twist later in the game when your opponent has more cards in their hand. The card is so good it can literally win you games. It's a real game changer because your opponent could have board advantage and card advantage, but if you Mind Twist them and get rid of that card advantage, you can potentially come back.
I've got some more cards lying around, but I'm in the process of sorting them out. I'll post more pics later on as I get everything properly sorted in the binder.

If it works for you, then it makes sense, but I don't think I've seen many black decks run four Necropotences. I'd also play around with swapping the Demonic Tutor with a Vampiric Tutor.

Can't use Vampiric Tutor in Old School '96. Visions was printed in 1997 and the format only goes as far as Mirage.
As for the 4 Necropotences, I have 4 copies because I feel it works best for me. I've also seen versions of the deck that ran 3, and that works too, but Necropotence is one of those cards that you really want to have early on in the game imo, and I like to hit it as early as possible. Also, I take into consideration the possibility of the card getting countered or disenchanted.

Took some more pics as I was going through the cards I've got stored in a box and sleeved them up in the binder. The 4 copies of Stasis and 2 Winter Orbs which belong to the Stasis deck, and some of the cards which belong to the Erhnamgeddon deck. For now, I'm just trying to sort cards by color and mana cost in the binder, but when I come across some that belong to a specific deck, that's when I'll go back and group them accordingly.

Loved the Erhnamgeddon decks back in the day.
