What would you change to make this deck better?

I saw an Izzet Prowess brew on YouTube, and ported the list to moxfield:

https://moxfield.com/decks/2GdDaVjM20WADkQEHAeaWw

The objective of the video was to only use niche or underused cards, purposefully avoiding the pauper staples, but I wanted to see what this deck could be with those rules abolished.

How would you improve this prowess deck?

What deck would you play if there was no pauper banlist?

Considering a kitchen table scenario, with no pauper banlist, what deck would you choose to brew? I’m torn between affinity with atogs, mono black control, with sinkhole and hymn to tourach, and high tide, but I’m sure that unbanning every card can lead to more creative decks than the ones I mentioned.

Making a Rack / Lantern control deck in pauper

Is it possible to make something like a control / lock deck in pauper, like the rack and lantern control? I’ve heard that pauper lacks a proper hard control deck, but I think it would be nice to make the opponent discard their cards and make they lose life for it or for having few cards in hand, in preparation for establishing a lock or grinding out the game with some other effect.

The closest I found to this was turbo fog, milling the opponent slowly, but it doesn’t have black or the feel of those two decks, and UB mill, which can discard cards and mill the opponent, but also doesn’t hit the same spot, and honestly looks pretty weak.

I already have some meta decks for local games, so this deck doesn’t need to be tier 1 in terms of power, but it should be enough to win some games and establish ”the lock”.

Can you help me come up with something?

I want to make a custom night lords deck, from warhammer 40k, with Konrad Curze at the helm. What would the best options be?

Basically the title. Night lords are one of my favorite WH40K factions, but they're not represented in the Warhammer set that came out for mtg. I don't know if it's because of all the flayed skin and torture, because Phyrexia exists, but alas.

So, I want to make a custom deck, just changing the art and using a commander that fits in with the night lords and Curze. I would also like to change the art of some creatures and other spells, to fit the theme.

Finally, it would be nice to fit in some warhammer cards, so the deck isn't entirely custom arts.

Playing my deck against doomsday

I'm building my first vintage deck using proxies to play against a friend of mine, and I went with jewel shops, here's the list:

https://moxfield.com/decks/etyhnPFAp0Oj8ekunFychw

I'll be using my deck exclusively to play against him, and he plays doomsday. Is this version of the deck ok against doomsday, or are there some cards that I can sub in, and others I can sub out?

Raker shops VS jewel shops

I’m going to build my first vintage deck, and I’m between jewel shops and raker shops.

I like the blue in jewel shops, since blue is my favourite colour in magic, and having ancestral recall, time walk and force of will in the deck seems very nice.

On the other hand, raker shops seems like it can win more consistently, and has a clearer game plan and combo with divining top and glaring flesh raker. Jewel shops seems more convoluted on how to actually close the game.

What are your thoughts on these two decks, and how they play?

Need some opinions and thoughts on a deck I brewed

I just brewed this pauper deck:

https://moxfield.com/decks/GsbDTIPZIUSjv04MI0AlaQ

I tried making a deck of my own, instead of just making a tier 1 or 2 deck. It doesn't need to be super competitive, it's more of a fun deck to play casually in a style I like. I tried making a sort of wizard tribal with some spellslinging and a bit of skred inspiration.

I would like some opinions or tips on how the deck could be improved, without just changing it to a meta list. Maybe there's some things I'm not considering that are problems for the deck.

Need help upgrading my krenko deck

When I started playing, one of my first decks was a budget krenko list, here's the link:

https://moxfield.com/decks/BgJA7lodw06W1JTAJd_i6A

Now, I play against stronger decks, and since everyone is always afraid of Krenko (rightly so), I rarely get to do anything with this bracket 2 deck, so I wanted to upgrade it.

I have no budget limitations, but I want to sub in a maximum of 60 cards. I feel like this ammount can significantly improve the deck, bringing in the krenko combos and faster mana. I want to up the deck into a bracket 4 at least, so it needs to be a lot faster and have a lot of combos and stax pieces like [[Blood Moon]] for example, so that I can keep up and win.

If you give a certain ammount of card recommendations, please also give tips on what to cut, since I'm very bad at cutting cards from my decks. Thanks!

Finishing up my Braids deck

I just put together a Braids, Conjurer Adept deck, here’s the decklist:

https://moxfield.com/decks/eiR41HIsdkmod8r2HhYI_A

I’m not trying to do anything crazy or extremely original with the deck, I just want to dump huge creatures and artefacts on the board. I’m mostly concerned about the mana curve, ramp and land count, as well as protection for Braids and the other creatures.

I’ve also noticed that I ended up not putting too many sorcery spells in the deck, but maybe it’s just how the deck runs.

Do you have any tips for improving the deck? Maybe adding more lands, or other, better creatures, or som like that. I appreciate all insight into the deck!
