Throughout the development of the format, we had builds like Edric and Narset standing out, but they ended up falling for the same problem that we already mentioned when we talked about Doomsday - the massive use of slots.Recapping our series, we saw that the format is increasingly optimized around staples that together regulate the speed of your deck and your opponents' in order to act as finishing pieces (combos and locks), motors (draws, tutors and acceleration) or interaction pieces (stax, counters or removals), making the metagame faster within each new expansion
This trend is marked by increased trading, collecting, and interest in rare and valuable cards
