Meta Snapshot Updates
This week we’re adding two decks back to our meta snapshot thanks to their success at Planetary Qualifier events this weekend. Both Han1/Green and Iden/Blue had been on the snapshot in the Set 1 meta and always seemed on the cusp of competitive play in Set 2. This week they broke through and took down PQs!
We’re also moving Boba Green back to the top of the midrange column- while this deck was never out of contention, it took a little time for players to figure out how to balance it’s new tools with the old ones. A formula has now emerged that combines a robust top end with a Ma Klounkee centered early game and a bolstered flip turn spike with Boba’s Armor. This shell took down multiple PQs this weekend, and is thusly back in its rightful position as the king of midrange.
