This is (likely) the last piece of data we would like to share from the AZMagicPlayers.com 2014 Legacy Series Championships – archetype data! We’d like to thank lordofthepit from MTGTheSource, who wrote the script that generated the data in an attempt to create a comprehensive metagame analysis of Legacy! You can view his thread here. We’ve chosen to highlight some archetype data here, but the full document will be available in the aforementioned thread.
As a note, keep in mind that the archetype names may be slightly different than what we used before (as lordofthepit has his own naming conventions):
