We are seeing quite a diverse meta at the top. A notable archetype at the top is Ramp Tiny Fan on Last Stand Mech. It is nice to see another archetype finding success, not just the usual over and over for multiple seasons. Let us see if Ramp Tiny Fan will take over as we get to the Final Era of Season 9.

This week it seems like there are more people at Egg and the distribution has more peaks, suggesting that different players are stuck / settled at various levels. Another 1k players got to Challenger, making it over 5000 players in Challenger.
Finally a more colourful picture at the top which is not just Turnip. We have Feather, Poison, Brutal Claw, Healing Pulse, Turnip, and Ramp Tiny Fan at 2400+ VStar. The interesting one has to be Ramp Tiny Fan on Last Stand Mech seems to be quite viable at the very top.
Turnip is no longer the number 1 archetype once we get to the Mystic Era. Ramp Tiny Fan is the archetype that seems to be climbing and doing well is the current meta at the top. Other archetypes such as Anemone, Perch, Sponge are not making it very far this Season in the Mystic Era.
Matchup table looks like there is not really any OP archetypes. Different archetypes have their good and bad matchups. There are some matchups which are very polarising, which can be frustrating in terms for player experience.
A more diverse meta at the top compared to tthe rest of the Season. Ramp Tiny Fan has been around as an archetype but finally finding success in the Mystic Era of Season 9. It can be frustrating to play against if your team is not fast enough against it. Could it be the archetype that will flood the Final Era? Or will we see even more new innovations?
