David breaks down the cards to watch in DMU and how their arrival plays into the shifting metagame. Plus: is this the end for Izzet Murktide?

Modern’s stability continues unabated. However, there are signs that, beneath the surface, change is occurring. David E. has the data to demonstrate the change.
