With two Rounds remaining in Swiss Constructed competition today, it’s a great time to look at the players – and the decks! – at the top tables.  Remember, as players earn more points for winning their Matches, they’re seated at lower and lower table numbers: undefeateds groups together at the single-digit tables, while less successful competitors are seated further up.  Taking a peek at the top ten tables is always a good way to see what strategies are doing the best right now.  Take a look!

There’s nary a Fire Fist Duelist in sight, but plenty of Dino Rabbit and Mermail Decks!  Frog Monarchs, Karakuri, and Prophecy strategies are doing pretty well too, so we’ll be on the lookout for those in Round 5.  Mermails still seem to be the Deck to beat, occupying almost half the seats at the top ten tables, but that could still change by the time we cut to the Top 32.
