A very thoughtful overview of this year's metagame evolution. I would have framed things differently, but I'll save that for another time.

The Goblins will not die.
....Moving on.
Nice article though. I'm glad to see someone not claiming that Reanimator is the king of the format.

I liked it a lot. Very straightforward and did not stray onto tangents of what I did last night type things. A good read overall in my opinion.

I agree... a very pleasant read that seems to sum things up nicely - thanks for sharing!!!

Now I'm curious to come back in a year and see what's changed :wink:

Take it easy,

When I step back and take a look at all that had changed over the past year, it's truly impressive. One of the reasons to love Legacy. Wonderful article.

The deck that wins the Philly $5K? 74/75 of the list I published in this article, and 65/65 of the cards I actually used during the tournament. Called shot?

Man I freaking love Legacy. I lost a game to a deck that opened on Mother of Runes and Weathered Wayfarer, in round 8 playing for top 8! Nick Coss baited a guy into using a Wasteland so that he could kill a Tombstalker with Karmic Justice! I spent the last few rounds pulling for Paul Lynch to top 8 cause he's a cool guy AND he was playing Merfolk (no ulterior motive...) and he had Absolute Law in his SB, the sneaky bastard - I didn't even know that card EXISTED! Don't even get me started on Burgeoning...
