VOD
Metagame
The two ramping archetypes – Temur Reclamation and Bant Ramp were the dominating decks in this tournament, matched by Jund and Rakdos Sacrifice. Many players should know that these are the powerhouses of the format even after the release of Core Set 2021, but the metagame is still early. A breakthrough deck of the weekend has been Mono Black Aggro, which Teruya Kakumae took to #1 Mythic in the first day of this season, but unfortunately was not able to break the top 16 here. Mono Green Stompy is still doing its best, as likely the best aggressive deck of the format so far.
Decklists
