The Modern metagame appears to be settling down. The Energy metagame is shifting to be combo focused and Blink continues to adapt. This likely means no bans.

The Modern Pro Tour showed how Modern’s metagame is becoming combo centric. However, the metagame is still defined by Energy. The two facts are linked.

While the RCQ season is over, Modern continues to evolve. Energy’s dominance continues unabated but new decks are still trying to challenge it to some success.

Modern’s RCQ season ended in July, and the metagame should settle. However, there’s churn in the lower tiers and dissatisfaction with the state of Tier 1.

Modern is adjusting in unexpected ways. Decks expected to thrive have disappointed, surpassed by unexpected decks. Incoming cards will further reshape Modern.
