State of the Meta: MTG Standard Tier List & Breakdown [June Week 4]
In this week's State of the Meta for MTG Standard, @TheMaxDamage9999 & @TheDarkStream break down the latest Control entries to Tier 1 and why decks we thought were firmly going into Tier 1 have instead fallen into the abyss of Tier 3. What happened with fan favorite Domain? Is Mono White Midrange getting any respect this week? (Yes, sort of...) The big questions we should all be asking however, is: How many decks are viable in Standard and is it a healthy meta? Find out!
