    I'd love to have a battle of wits with you but I see you lack the necessary equipment.

    You're talking about the deck that's at the top of the stats tracked in this thread. Legacy is still defined by two Hymns, actual Hymn and blue hymn (Counterbalance) - as long as Hymn/SCM/Kcomm is seeing play and winning as much as it is, the only real strategy to beat it is Counterbalance (floating 2 drops, and postboard being able to counter 3x REB) and staying off-board with anything not an enchantment. Less real strategies exist like Big Eldrazi and most things with any reason to maindeck Leyline of the Void playsets...

    On the bright side, there was as many as 6 (Jund, D&T, Colorless 12-Post, B/R Reanimator, Lands, ?) non-Brainstorm decks. So Brainstorm is ever alive and uber represented at the top tables.

    The irony is that I think you looked at a different event but I think you're correct for this weekend's top 8 as well

    What deck was supposed to be neutered with the DRS ban? Or conversely, given room to breath?

    Agreed, grixis control lost Leovold, a mana dork and the ability to handle enchantments. It's still doing it's thing just weaker.

    Delver has not yet settled imo. It's not clear which version is the best atm (rug, grixis, UB shadow)
