Anyone else find it just a bit wonky that 2 of the most predominate decks in a standard with ravnica block, the 2 most predominate decks are mono U tempo and RDW?
Last Ravnica standard we had Mono B Devo, and mono U devo, and those were busted at points. But we also had Sphinx Rev Control in ever color combo you could make including azorius colors. We also had Gruul Midrange and even Boros Burn. But atm it seems like on arena, and in paper everyone is playing Mono U or Mono Red or loosing to mono U or mono R.
Maybe I just got used to 3/4 color decks midrange and control decks during the time span from when RTR hit standard until the time khans left. Having such good mana bases for so long was nice. Still seems like with shocks and friend lands we'd have more 2 color midrange decks, and at least 1 U/X or U/X/X control deck hating out everyone.
It just seems like they have dropped the power level in standard so much, and it feels boring.
