What we will see this weekend at The Geekery AZ Legacy City Champs
This weekend is the next City Champs at The Geekery. From the results of the previous events we can get a general idea of what we can expect.
The most popular.
As we have seen and will keep seeing Delver is the place to be. This deck is still the most represented at every event and won the last event. The previous winners have mostly been deck that have been good against this menace.

Surprised?
This last event we had an unusual amount of Post players. There were 3 different versions of the deck running around with green being the preferred color. I doubt we will see the same representation of this deck at the next event.

Will we see more?
With delver still being the most popular archetype I think we will see some more control decks or lands decks show up. I think the Jeskai control deck being the most popular variant.

Goblins will be a constant show up at these events. We have some dedicated goblins players and we will continue to see at least 3 at every event. Barring extreme situations.
