That's the format folks!  Short but interesting all things considered.  Shadows had the most hype going into it but started off sluggish while Pale Moon came in strong and hasn't let up.  Murakumo is in the position of being good now that people have figured out a way to play the deck (spoiler alert; weasels suck) while DI is...there.  Really good in Premium however.  Shadows and Pale Moon being in the format is a good thing for anyone still playing Narukami as binding Blaster Darks hurts Mordred and Pale Moon naturally leave their boards empty if you play the Silver Thorn deck naturally.  Dimension Police are still as obnoxiously strong as they were last format if they highroll and Novas I think are starting to see a bit of a decline in play which doesn't surprise me as I think Pale Moon is arguably the better Accel deck.  BT also continued to see play albeit in lesser numbers before then banlist came in and now they might see no play entirely.  We've also got a new set on the horizon and honestly I think Tachikaze is the only one of the three clans in that set worth keeping an eye on.  Spikes perform better in the west because that's where LivingProof is and Megacolony's new cards are hot ass.  That clan is now legitimately the worst one in the game now.
