The major weakness of this deck is that it only has 8 creatures.  To help combat that there is Reclaim, Commune with Nature, Brainstorm, and Ponder.  These spells, along with the other spells can simultaneously be used to pump Nivix Cyclops and/or Kiln Fiend.  Also, to prevent chump blockers, clearing the battlefield with Lightning Bolt, and/or Unsummon may be necessary.

Feebleness - Blue, Green, Red. Format: Pauper. Version 1




I call this deck Feebleness because it is a Pauper deck.  One might associate “Feebleness” with a deck of commons.  Commons are usually less expensive, etc.  It is actually a very good pauper deck, so don’t be deceived by the deck name.
This deck is based upon Kiln Fiend.  Augury Owl, Sage Owl, and Commune with Nature are there to help find a Kiln Fiend, and in order to pump Kiln Fiend there are many blue, green, and red sorceries and instants.  Also, if a Kiln Fiend winds up in a graveyard there is Reclaim, and Wildwood Rebirth.
Feebleness has 17 lands, but the 3 Prophetic Prism artifacts make it as if there were 20.  This is less land than I usually use.  However, when examining the average casting cost of 1.5 there isn’t need for more lands.
Other thoughts, such as a sideboard may include Unsummon.  Cards like Lightning Bolt and Unsummon are great for both pumping Kiln Fiend and clearing the battlefield for her.
