Its been a month

YCS San Mateo has just passed but I was barely paying attention to the coverage.

Dragons dominated and will continue to do so. Honestly the dominance level is getting ridiculously similar to teledad format except rogue deck stands more chance to steal game nowadays. Mermail flops terribly.

Merlin's 1st place deck doesnt play Vanity's Emptiness. Pat Hoban dropped Emptiness from his deck. Josh Graham regrets playing it. I never play more than 1 Emptiness in any of my Dragon variants as I always feel its a card with limited range and doesnt quite warrant the 2 deck space it currently holds. Don't you think its odd that people choose to main 0/1 MST despite this being prevalent?

Good to finally see people caught up with Darkspear(Trident). I've seen ZERO discussion on this at all which is ridiculous considering its, in the word of Josh, 'a searchable Return'. He also maindecks D.D. Crow and have Skill Drain in sideboard.

Also obligatory shoutout to fellow ex-TCGPlayer, Mike Klasel for making Top 16 as the highest placed Spellbook player and the deck's one and only representative in Top 32. He doesn't play World of Prophecy.
