The post-Mystical Tutor metagame has begun to shake out, and thus far two decks - Merfolk and Madness - have been the breakout winners. While not at the same level of success, TES is also doing well, despite having considerably fewer players using it.

Why are these decks winning? Where did the current versions come from, how are they evolving, and what can the rest of the format do about them? This article should help you get your bearings. [Please note that there are a few versions of each deck in the article, but they're set up as links, so don't miss them if you're not familiar with them.]

That's my article this week, in a nutshell, along with some other random thoughts. One other item, the Affinity lists should have Glimmervoid in them instead of Blinkmoth Nexus, or at least 1 / 1 split, for color fixing purposes.
