Looking for a lower-cost Classic deck? Do you have a bunch of Modern-legal cards? Dark Times is a powerful deck that might be for you!
Slightly before 10:00pm EDT on Saturday, June 30th, 2012, the Classic format passed away after a long coma caused by mysterious trauma suffered on May 5th 2012 (the day after the last Classic Daily Event). Doctors and Classic enthusiasts alike are baffled by what had caused the nearly 2-month coma, but some have postulated it was the result of several lingering health issues. Chief among these suspected complications was apathy. The recent release of miracles in Avacyn Restored, numerous free tournaments, and the demise of Classic Quarter certainly all contributed to the plight of Classic. Of course, several other afflictions, dating back to when the format was conceived, contributed to shortening its lifespan as well. Classic was 6 years old.
Having marked the 1st anniversary of Unlocking the Vault, enderfall reflects on the Classic format– how it’s changed, where it’s headed, and what he’s learned since starting the series one year ago.
Enderfall examines the recent tournaments’ results and notes the distinct lack of control decks finishing in the money. Is this a trend or simply a minor blip of variance?
