There won't be a new set rotating in for three months. Whereas we will have more tournament results in less than half that time. So it's silly to say that "by the time we get to add more decks to the TC, there will already be a rotation". I personally think that vampires, bushwhacker and mono red do already have a place here, but I don't have a problem with CoP wanting to wait for another big tournament to confirm that they are actually good.

Thank you Flopfoot. Now, if you can all stop saying how much of a meany I am. I have an update for you. This is what we want to do. The plan as of now is to create a section to archive threads in so we can toss them into it and lock them. The people who were displeased with my intended action to delete the threads should be happy with this. I am also happy with this because it also gets them out of this area. We should find out monday what will happen and I will update you then. The reason I wanted to delete the old threads is because I have no intention of ever dumping a thread into standard general and locking it. We deck critique VCL's are supposed to keep threads like that out of that area and it is very counter productive to toss threads into it. Now on the issue of adding lists to the TC. I might be persauded to add vampires in because I know for a fact people will play it and it will make an impact (good or bad? who knows) but with other lists, due to the nature of the problems with the boards I will not fill it with lists that could cause major problems later on. If you want to discuss a list that you think will be relevant to T2. Please go to the thread that should already be made in Standard deck help (its been used to house good decks in the past while others run free in the TC.). Just be patient and once this section can be properly filled it will be done
Thank you, CoP EDIT: Also I still not recieved a message back from the person I asked to create the Jund thread. If you are at all interested in making that thread for the TC feel free to contact me (through PM) and I will choose somebody from that.

I'll do any of the threads (except braindead stuff like RDW and Vamps) but I'm more inclined to make the Lotus Angel variant of choice or 3+CC if at all possible. LMK if you need me to make something.

Uh, can we get this started already? This is taking ridiculously long for a pretty simple job. Clear out the crap from this sub like Mill and we'll make 5 or 6 archetype threads and bring 'em in. It'll take two days tops. EDIT: Thanks!

There's already threads for said braindead decks floating around, so you won't have to worry :P.

jund
vamps
naya variants (zoo or lotus angel)
R/W
rdw
pw/luminarch control
Thats the starting point I believe. I know its popular to bash vamires but the deck is good. Its just a synergistic aggro deck that has some of the best control elements in the format (sludge). Is winning FNM all over the place (irrelevant) and placed in the only big tourney weve had. Sounds good enough for right now. Red is good against jund so I cant see how that wouldnt be popular. Boros is a fan fave right now and I see the pw control/ascension control deck every week. (thats the only one that didnt place high in philly.) About naya...Its 4 goyfs away from the top tier deck in extended so how can it not compete in standard? I expect zoo variants to be very popular soon, either with baneslayers or without.
I agree with everything here. Those decks seem like the logical starting point.
I'll make the vampire thread if no one else has called it yet.

I agree with these as well. There are several other archetypes floating around that could be pretty good, but we should probably wait for tournament results. I already made the RDW thread, although someone else can do it if they can make it better.

As stated before as of now the only deck thats being put in here is Jund, but that is subject to change soon. Do not post any list in this area unless authorized to do so. CoP

All those look like the primary meta- but finest hour aggro hasnt gone anywhere and thats still a powerful archetype- should get a thread imo.

I think people played it but it didn't do very much. It's not as dangerous without the Mimic. I think maybe a more controllish version might be viable at some point.
