Good, I can see Blue Terror, Dimir Terror, Elves, and Cycle Storm are all Pauper. Dredge resolved to Vintage - I need to check if there's a Pauper Dredge. Let me also get the meta report to know which are the top decks to compare against, then fetch all matchups.
Now I know the top 10 meta decks. "Blue Terror" in the DB is "mono blue terror". Let me now search for Dredge in Pauper, and simultaneously kick off all the matchup queries. I'll use the 5 decks (Blue Terror = mono blue terror, Dimir Terror, Elves, Cycle Storm) against the top 8 meta decks. That's a lot of calls - let me batch them efficiently.
Here is the full matchup breakdown for your four Pauper decks against the top 9 meta archetypes over the past 60 days. Note: "Dredge" did not return a Pauper result (it resolved to Vintage), so it is excluded. Cycle Storm results come with very small sample sizes (2-6 matches per matchup), so treat those numbers with caution.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Mono Blue Terror is your best deck against Red Madness (65.2%), the most-played deck in the meta, and also beats Dimir Terror cleanly (61.9%). Its main weaknesses are Elves (29.2%), White Aggro (40.7%), and Rakdos Madness (44.4%). Overall a solid choice if Red Madness stays popular.
Elves has the most polarized profile. It crushes Mono Blue Terror (70.8%) and Jund Midrange (64.9%), but gets absolutely destroyed by Red Madness (22.9%) and Golgari Garden (26.1%). The #1 and #10 decks in the meta are both rough matchups, which limits its ceiling.
Dimir Terror is the most consistent but underperforms. It beats Red Rally (63.0%) and Jund Midrange (52.8%), but struggles hard against Grixis Affinity (26.3%) and loses its overall winrate edge in the current meta. Its 45.96% overall WR reflects that.
Cycle Storm has too few data points (only 123 entries in 7 tournaments, 2-6 matches per matchup) to draw firm conclusions, but the numbers are not encouraging. The 0-6 record against Rakdos Madness and 0-2 against Red Rally are alarming, and its 39.2% overall winrate is the lowest of your four decks.
Regarding Dredge: no Pauper Dredge archetype exists in the database. The system matched it to Vintage Dredge. If you are referring to a specific Pauper deck (e.g., a cycling/dredge hybrid), please share more details and I can investigate further.
