Far below the earth
Where the demons hunt the souls of those that sleep
In the city of the Vazdru and the Drin
Where the black flame burns inside the palace fountain.

Getting sidetracked here but could some MTGO singleton player shed some light on these perceptions (or correct me if I'm wrong with them):

1) combo is non-existant from the current singleton meta
2) sideboards of the winning top-8 lists don't include grave hate

I've been eying on weekly decklists at http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Archive.aspx?tag=Decks%20of%20the%20Week&description=Decks%20of%20the%20Week and formed these two arguments.

Hasty conclusions --> The meta is frozen to aggro and various 3-4c good stuff control piles.

Yes indeed - it is a heavy aggo-meta. Just have a short look at the metagame breakdown:

Can this be a reflection on how expensive/unexpensive a deck is?!

I don't know much about MTGO, but in theory a viavle RDW can be easier/cheaper to make.

No grave hate? So, there isn't much grave shennanings?

@ Mythrandir:

The whole meta might be that aggro-heavy because of money-issues, but the successfull decks are piloted by experienced players most of the time. And most those players have all cards available.
