Thoughts
No Doomsdays in Thursday’s Top 32, and Sunday’s event didn’t fire!
Lurrus has moved to a better mana base, which means trouble for Doomsday. This explains the increase in Counters, but I’m not sure why some people are playing Dress Down in the main.
Other than that, things seem fairly stable. Frogs are going out of style. I’d wager this is because we don’t play a better mixed-game. Go all in on the combo.
