Welcome to This Week in Future Extended, an article series intended to follow the Future Extended metagame as seen through XPDC and UPDC events in the Lorwyn Season.
Surprise, surprise… the XPDC metagame took a turn for the Sap-unfriendly, and I got out just in the nick of time! An exciting week for Future Extended, as Kaityson36 sealed the deal and snagged Affinity its first gold medal at XPDC 1.02, and on Sunday, amidst a swarm of Saprolings enough to sicken anyone with any sense, the B/G incarnation “Prison Yard” piloted by Eegag made a triumphant UPDC debut.
Let’s do some analysis of the metagame and see where trends are pointing going into the holiday week.
