This Week in Decklists — Gameplay Videos and Stats (May 8th, 2016, Season 26)

It’s time to take a look at what some of the pros and streamers have been playing from the Whispers of the Old Gods set this week! We’ve also added a couple of featured decks that takes a look at winrates, game videos, and mulligans in an attempt to get you familiar with how well a deck plays and does against certain classes.

    Aggro/Midrange Dragon Warrior links to fibonacci2016 VOD, not lifecoach.

    I think “Amnesiasc” is correct, not Amnesiac.
