Title: Its been a while. Whats new?
Post by: pilgrim14 on July 24, 2015, 12:26:04 PM: I haven't played redemption barely at all since TEC came out and don't have any TEC cards. What decks are big? What decks that used to be good aren't? Basically, how is the meta now?

Thanks, Pilgrim

The answers to those questions are probably going to stay up in the air until next week...and then we'll throw a new set into the mix ;)

Welcome back from your hiatus! Many of the same archetypes as before are still strong. From States and Regional results that I'm familiar with these offenses and defenses are still strong:

Judges
Disciples
TGT

Canaanites
Pharisees/Romans
Magicians/Demons

One of the main things I've seen on the rise since the EC set is Abom decks. The Greek defense got a big boost. I've seen both N.T. gold, clay and teal/green offenses paired with that. To my knowledge Abom decks won multiples State tournaments and placed at multiple Regional tournaments.
