I have found very few threads generating debate and such on the beach lately. I would like to change that by asking everybody on the beach to help me in...
1. Finding all "Metagame" or possibly decent decks for the DP-SF era.
2. Debating the usage of all decks and placing educated guesses on what deck will be the "best".
3. Discussing all of the possible techs and generating some kind of Matchups list.
4. Finally tiering all of the decks and hopefully coming to some agreement.
I realize that this task is far from easy and very little will probably come out of all of this, but I have some extra time and I wouldn't mind doing this to help others on their deck choices and establishing some kind of formal "Metagame." At the moment has been content with just saying,
"Since SF hasn't come out nothing has been able to establish itself in the metagame."
Hopefully this goes well and we can have some healthy debate and establish an order to the chaos of SF. I'll start us off with just a list of possible metagamers. Tell me to add any that I miss. Then we may move onto part two and come up with a couple of decks that have potential.
