Boosh, Patty B took it down on Thursday September 3rd (rather savagely), so I asked him a few questions about his RUG tempo deck. As an ongoing commitment to the radness that is the highlander community I feel like it’s time to start hearing from the players about their decks. Traditionally Thursday doesn’t see as much love, and… Read More »Interview: Thurslander Champion Pat Berdusco

Hey Everyone! I was really struggling with what to write about the metagame for this past week and it wasn’t until I built my deck for this week that I decided on what to say! The last week was dominated by aggressive and midrange decks with both of those types of strategies pushing tempo out… Read More »The Monday Metagame(April 20th)

Hello again everyone! The metagame for this week was very intriguing so let’s dive right into it! There were still a lot of players present for this Monday though the numbers were slightly lower than they have been in the past few weeks. That being said the meta was still extremely diverse. Ultimately Colin ended… Read More »The Monday Metagame (April 13th)

Hey friends and welcome back to Monday Metagame! I took forever to process this weeks metagame as it was large and very complicated. Most archetypes were fairly well represented in the meta with blue decls tending to rise to the top. The four 3-0 decks at the beginning of the fourth round were BUG tempo,… Read More »The Monday Metagame (April 6th)

Welcome back everyone! This week we had 28 players show up for Monday night Highlander which meant that we had a large and diverse metagame! This week was marked by a departure away from the GBx decks that had previously been dominating the metagame. This may well be partly due to the recent changes to… Read More »The Monday Metagame (March 30th)

Hey everyone! This is going up a bit late since I was very busy on Tuesday so I’m writing it now! The metagame for this Monday was a little more varied than it has been in which past though interestingly the results were similar. The green black based midrange decks still rose to the top… Read More »The Monday Metagame (March 26th)

This Monday I’m reporting on two different metagames. Highlander for staples happened on the day before Monday night Highlander this week which resulted in an interesting shift in the meta. Stefan Bard took down the staples event with his BUG control deck and then successfully ran it back on Monday to take a huge lead… Read More »The Monday Metagame (March 16th)

Welcome back to the Monday Metagame! This week the metagame shifted slightly further towards midrange. In addition to moving even more towards midrange the metagame is also starting to shift away from blue decks and towards more green based decks.  Fewer players showed up with combo decks this week as well which meant that many… Read More »The Monday Metagame (March 9th)
