Performance Metric

Remarks

Less Utopia means Chimera has more chances to top (Chimera going 2nd against Utopia is almost insta lose). New box had no impact aside from Hero, but the deck is still the same with a little more draw power (draw the floodgate hero)

Performance Metric

Remarks

Sevens Road remains the most consistent deck, and Light Galaxy, for another week, has a very low performance. LG situation can be explained because it has lower representation and after Shiny Shady, the Eternal OTK is not so effective anymore.
