Is TGT finally dead?

Ever since TGT was released, it has dominated the game. In the past three years, TGT decks have won Nats twice in three years in T1 two player alone. Last year, many people said that Golgotha was the end of TGT. But  the Garden Tomb bounced back and won Nats. But now, TGT didn't get any new cards for the 1st time in three years. Instead, it has received many solid counters, such as ASA, Siege Works, ect. Could TGT finally be dead?

TGT's not even close to dead.  However, there are now strategies that can challenge it toe-to-toe.

Year 1. "TGT is so good!"
Year 2. "TGT didn't get enough counters and nobody's going to use them anyway. And it got Suzy!"
Year 3. "TGT or Disciples...hmm..."
This Year. "Meh, there's other stuff."

Which means that nobody's expecting it and it should be as dominant as ever. Plus, nobody's playing Golgotha (since all the defenses are O.T.), which was the only good counter to TGT. You'll definitely see it in the top 10 at least, if not the top 5 at nats this year.

TGT is dead as Elvis.

Alive but flying under the radar.

TGT will die when heck freezes over.

TGT will die when it snows in Florida

TGT will die when George Washington rolls over in the grave.

TGT will die when I quit Redemption.

All of these are very unlikely....

Washington's been rolling since we adopted a two-party system...

That's all part of the plan.  They've wrapped Washington's body in copper wire, and replaced his tombstone with a magnet.  Now, every time we do something boneheaded (read:it's a day that ends in y), he generates electricity!

Wow, I knew the English did that with Shakespeare; I'm glad we finally got around to rigging up Washington too.

There won't be something to make TGT deck for a long time. It's alive and well.

Of course, some argue that we shouldn't have done that, and we don't need to depend on alternate sources of energy.  This only makes him spin faster.

Which is why I believe in the importance of choosing green lollipops.
