It is time for our weekly recap of Eternal Tournaments throughout the week. Even before the tournaments began, there was a major shakeup as a series of card changes came down. These included a rather significant hit to Armory. This week included an extra Sunday ETS; the Last Chance Qualifier. With the ETS Invitational approaching quickly, it is time to look at what decks stood above the rest. Note: I made some changes as to which decks corresponded to which archetypes, so the top 5 changed slightly from last week.
Raw Data Top 5 going into the week:
•
Elysian Midrange •
Combrei •
Rakano •
Icaria Blue •
Praxis Midrange The first event as per usual was the TCG eSports tournament. A couple of unusual lists were seen at the top, with Hooru Fliers taking it over Feln Scream. This catapulted Fliers into the #1 spot, however due to the low representation, the deck is disqualified from the top 5. The only other change in the top 5 was Icaria Blue being able to take a slight lead over Combrei and Rakano.
Top 5 after TCG eSports (min 10 matches):
•
Elysian Midrange •
Icaria Blue •
Combrei •
Rakano •
Praxis Midrange The first day of the ETS doubleheader ended with a victory by Argenport. This combined with solid results throughout the rest of the week helped it cement a 64.4% winrate, 2nd only to Hooru Fliers. Elysian Midrange meanwhile had an awful day, falling out of the top 5 for the first time. Hooru Fliers meanwhile continued its strong week with another top 8, chalice also performed well, ending up as the only deck to end up with 2 top 8 finishes.

Praxis Midrange While the LCQ was only one day after the weekly, there was still a sizeable shift in deck performance. Elysian Midrange bounced back huge, coming top 4 as well as posting a 70% winrate, 10% better than any other deck played by multiple people. Despite this, Hooru Fliers managed to hold onto a 2% lead, claiming the #1 spot overall as well as for the week. Argenport, TJP Control, and Praxis were the next best decks in the LCQ, with each of them taking the remaining top 4 spots.
Top 5 decks overall:
•
Hooru Fliers •
Elysian Midrange •
Rakano •
Praxis Midrange •
Icaria Blue The first week of tournaments since the latest patch caused a significant stir up in the results for the week, with none of the top 5 decks going into the week managing to come top 5 this week.
