Metagame Breakdown

It seems, Legacy has reverted back to where it was before a certain 2-mana planeswalker took over. Delver decks — mainly blue-red or blue-red with black — accounted for almost a fifth of the field, if you add in the few RUG and BUG versions. Death and Taxes is back in fashion, and so is Miracles.

However, various archetypes have learned new tricks. For instance almost all of these Miracles now feature Oko, Thief of Crowns; Underworld Breach has eclipsed traditional Storm decks; while Food Chain picked up Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath.
