What are some Pauper legal cards you think are really cool, but haven't found a use for (at least not yet)? (mtgzone.com)

Here are some of mine:

[[Cavern Harpy]] – So much ETB shenanigans!

[[Sultai Emissary]] – Nice value card and possibly a really cool payoff if you have something good on top of your library.

[[Moldgraf Scavenger]] – Pauper Goyf??

Cavern Harpy saw some play in Pauper in the early days. It was used to recur creatures like [[Ravenous Rats]], [[Phyrexian Rager]], [[Chittering Rats]], and [[Gravedigger]]. Ninjas may also have been involved. I think the strategy just got outclassed by other things as new cards entered the format.

That's cool to hear! I'm very new so I don't have a sense of history yet. It's going to be a fun ride!
