The recently concluded Pro Tour Guilds of Ravnica showed the White Red Aggro dominance in the Top 8 and the Pro Tour metagame. With the championship title achieved, we would expect people to play more of this deck arcthetype in the coming weeks. The local metagame is not exempted of this one. But first, let us see what the people have been playing as per the recent tournament.

Here below is my observation of the deck archetypes that these players piloted during the Standard tournament last Saturday.

Total: 18 players

I can say that most of these players will just stick to their deck builds unless they are in a card pool wherein they can switch with their teammates’ decks. I can also say that they will refer to the Top Standard decks in the Pro Tour for specific decklist changes. Surely the Boros Aggro count will increase on this week’s local tournaments but I think most of the players will be ready for them. The deck has a huge target mark on its back at the moment and if no changes will be implemented to meddle the expected hate, it will surely be at the bottom of the barrel by the end of the Swiss rounds.

I will try to observe the next FNM on the possible little changes in the metagame. As for now, I am hoping to complete our Team’s Boros deck before Friday.

Until the next blog post.
