The Shaman/Warrior/Warlock meta continues.
On Sunday, the Americas crowned Cydonia as their Spring champion and the Canadian joins Amnesiac as region’s second representative at Blizzcon. Cydonia’s run denied a second seed for the United States and so far Korea remains the only country to have more than one representative in the World Finals.
You can read all about Cydonia’s run in our Saturday and Sunday recaps, but here’s a place to look at decklists and examine metagames. Seven of the nine classes were brought to the HCT AM championship, making for a less diverse meta compared to the European counterpart. Once again, Shaman and Warrior were in all eight line-ups, but the Shaman split between midrange and aggro was nonexistent, with all champions sticking to the latter. Notable is the increase in Druid decks compared to EU, with Malfurion being brought by half of the player pool, the class still being dominated by its CThun list.
Below are all 40 decks played this weekend, as well as the archetype breakdown.
