A few notes on the tournament; there was (or at least felt like) an over representation of dredge in the meta (I had to play against it round 2, 5 and 6) and a fair amount of fish. Almost no MUD (I think 1 person was playing MUD, the other two workshop pilots were myself, piloting BR Stax and another local play using a new version of shop combo). There were also a few nepra gush players (or whatever jace, lotus cobra, vault/key and tendrils is called now). There were also more ANT than TPS, but at least 5 or so players were playing one of the two.
