4c Snow Control,DnT, Glacial Mentor Stompy, and UR Delver are the next decks at 4 a piece

R/B Reanimator, ANT, and Mono Red come in at 3

Merfolk is rising??

RUG Delver the best deck????

Snek- how many and is it correct?

4c Delver’s place in the meta

4c Control merits

Are people prepared for Depths and is that the cause of it’s smaller share at the top tables?

Combo- would we play it and what would it be

Blade decks have dulled and it shows

The state of tundra- Terminus or Sinkhole

Mystic Karn- the linear deck that’s fast but vulnerable

Top 8 predictions 12 w6

What would/are we going to play?

W6 vs. Legacy
