It seems like all of the conversation about the meta has fragmented into a bunch of discords and paywalled data aggregation. Where does an aspiring serious player go to fill in the 2-3 years of missed meta knowledge?

    Here’s some resources that I use often:

    • mtggoldfish has meta decks and user submitted decks for almost all popular formats out there. They include a meta % to show how much a deck is played.
    • for more competitive meta results I use mtgdecks.net, where you can filter on recent tournaments or MTGO leagues within the format you’re interested in.
    • lastly there’s aetherhub, which I use less these days but is also a good source for meta deck finding.
    • if you’re looking for meta discussions and deck techs, you can still find them on reddit, e.g. the /r/spikes subreddit or the subreddit for the format of your choice, for Pioneer there’s /r/PioneerMTG

    Can’t, they release new cards every few weeks. Plus competitive scene is dead and unsupported.

    I played since unlimited competitively and stopped when they stopped supporting LSGs and tournament play.

    Just draft if you want to keep one foot in.

      What do you mean by this? Does nobody cover or are you claiming the pace is too fast to catch up?
