CrabHelmet Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Note that the new, more varied meta comes at the price of allowing Lightlords to claim half of the Top 16 slots. Lightlords are just about the least skilled strong deck we've had for a long time - Dark Armed Return, Glads, and Tele-DAD all took more skill than they do.

Lightsworns had a pretty low showing given how with more than half the slots they couldn't pull a win, whereas the winner was the only deck of it's type, I think the emphasis in these tournaments will switch from Lightsworns and archetype based decks to more creative strategies. I doubt will see as many Lightsworns in the next top 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the players had a role, but you know as well as I do that many choose what to run based on what successful in previous jumps. Thus, less people will run LS the less good it does.
