Will Jund really suffer?

Will Faeries reign supreme?

Will BW Tokens become a thing?

Will Melira Pod be better now that {Deathrite Shaman} is gone?

Will zoo be a thing? (Please say yes!)

Lastly will any other new Rogue decks (maybe manipulating new BNG Cards) become a thing?

Humans, Always humans. I believe in Innistrad human deck

In all seriousness, Fae will make such a come back. And actually those Esper control/token decks feel tier 1, but I haven't play tested

I doubt that tokens will be a tier 1 thing, but it may be close. Grixis Faeries will be there and Zoo is practically bound to do well. BGx will probably still top 8 this, although it may not be as dominant as usual.

I was kidding about my humans. I was thinking about making it white red humans with a few dragons for the Faerie token clear with my {Thundermaw hellkite}s. I got a playset when they were really cheap. I can also use my {Moonveil Dragon}s in that deckI can get some more purphoros as well as some red human creatures.

I'd say watch out for in order:
- Zoo
- Melira pod
- Splinter twin
- Faeries
- BG control/goyf deck
- rouge decks like soul sisters, or scapeshift

I think tron will be useless with so many zoo and pod decks running around. You may see some affinity but zoo can kill that deck quick so I don't expect much on that front. Personally I think pod is the best deck of the format right now so having a good matchup against it is very important. A lot of people are jumping on zoo just for fun even though it can't beat pod. So those are the two to beat I think.

Top Tier: Jund, Domain Zoo, Affinity, Twin, Pod(Kiki more than Melira), UWR Midrange, UWR Control, Living End and Merfolk.

UB Faes are still in debate.

I'm interested to see which T2 or rogue decks will do well.

If Jund continues to plummet in popularity and zoo gets as big as everyone hopes, it may go down to tier 2.

Tron is going down. It just is decreases now die to the shift. Jund isn't played as much and Tron is going to adapt. Pyroclasm isn't as good as it used to be and Relic is only okay since it was mainly a thing for all of Jund, not 2 cards now.
