Alright so we've just got some interesting results from the GP today that should shake up the format. Aggro Loam focusing on Flame Jabbing and Seismic Assaulting creatures before people can do mean things with them is going to be a very strong strategy and should shift the entire metagame. Melira, Splinter Twin, and even decks like Affinity lose a lot of power from so much removal, and an online Assualt has got to be almost impossible to beat.

So here's the coverage as of now of the decklists: http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Events.aspx?x=mtg/daily/eventcoverage/gplin12/welcome#1

A lot of the usual stuff that has been talked about lately, but Aggro Loam is going to shake the metagame up considerably.

Glad to see Aggro Loam slap people.

Does this deck not play Seismic, or am I just really sick?

I was looking at the wrong Loam list, whoops.
