I wasn't sure whether to put Turtenwald's U/W Stoneblade/Delver as UWx Stoneblade or UWR Delver so I put it as a separate thing. If ppl disagree with that, lemme know.

Well, Brad Bonin's top 8 profile from the GP helped to answer my question. Ouch.

So can we already conclude, that DRS-ban actually hurt non-blue creature decks the most because they lost their best card while Blue Midrange/Tempo only lost their best creature (3rd best spell maybe?).
I am glad the ban-mob had it right again...
i'm quite pleased w/ the bannings. unfortunately the best deck against the cantrip decks is boring. (eldrazi).
probe was a nice change for the format. DRS will take more time to flesh it out, but i think the format has generally opened up.

I'm really glad it's been useful to people

I feel that this feeling is largely illusory. From the OP, italicized where I feel an argument could be made for novelty:
Grixis Control: 563 points
Miracles: 436
Death's Shadow: 341
Death & Taxes: 328
Grixis Delver: 280
Sneak & Show: 268
Lands: 262
UWx Stoneblade: 259
RUG Delver: 207
ANT: 205
Is that really that much different?
I get that I'm basically the only person who liked probe, but I don't feel like these bannings were a huge shakeup, other than getting rid of the green in the formerly 4-color control decks. Plus, Sneak and Show is super boring. RUG is sweet, and I know people who wish it were 2013 again might be excited to play stoneblade again, but Miracles, DNT, Lands, and Grixis are as good as ever.
