For those of you thinking of heading to NM for the PTQ. These are the breakdowns of the January PTQs thus far in the top 8, of which there are 7 recent PTQs.

Deck- Number of 1st - 2nd- 3rd/4th-- 5th thru 8th

Faeries-- 4-- 1-- 2-- 4
Jund-- 0-- 1-- 5-- 1
UW Control-- 0-- 0-- 1-- 5
Mythic Conscription-- 0-- 1-- 1-- 2
Fauna Naya-- 1-- 0-- 0-- 1
Naya-- 0-- 0-- 0-- 1
Vengevine Naya-- 0-- 1-- 0-- 0
GW Trap-- 0-- 0-- 1-- 3
Wargate-- 0-- 0-- 0-- 3
RDW-- 1-- 0-- 0-- 0
4C Control-- 0-- 1-- 1-- 0
Scapeshift-- 0-- 1-- 0-- 0
White Weenie-- 0-- 0-- 0-- 2
Spinter RUG-- 0-- 0-- 1-- 0
Ooze Combo-- 0-- 0-- 0-- 1
Steel Artifact-- 0-- 0-- 0-- 1

Based on these numbers, I know what I would be playing if I wanted to WIN a PTQ.

Wow... what a metagame that we have there... Faeries or Bust.


Now, I know that I will have to play test a deck before going to a PTQ, since I can't build a Faeries deck at all with my collection.

I would play Fae or Jund....with Jund coming 2nd due to me knowing the deck inside and out.

I know what I'm playing on Saturday, and it's not any of those. Go figure. At least it ain't MBC.

I'm surprised to see UW Control making it into the Top 3 of T8 performers. I would have figured that the default "top control" deck was 4/5CC or, at the very least, some port of UB Control that wasn't Faerie-ish.

Awesome info frank. Thanks a lot. I'd like to go to NM, if anyone else is going and has a seat, i'll happily fill it.

On a side note, RDW gives jund AND Fae a hard time.

Kitchen Finks laughs at RDW. ;)

I would love to test my Jund against RDW, because it is one of the harder match ups, but I think my prowess with Jund building will come through for me. :P

Yeah, pretty much 90% of the Jund decklists online are running 3-4 main. Between 4 life and two blockers for only 1GG it gives it enough fits.

@ Ash: Call me.
