I agree, our league has some good data, since most of the reports have the names/archtypes of the decks. If i have time next week, ill try to summarize the results of our last 2 seasons.

Well, a lot of aggro (RDW, gobos, elfs, 5C aggro), Bant, reanimator, and control (mostly staxx, my 5cc, some MBC and UW). Combos were plentiful but with only 1 game per archtype (mostly played by Nastaboi).
I have a total of 110 decks in this list, 72 being aggro/aggroish. If i counted correctly.
So, to sum up: There is still plenty of aggro. Grave hate is still needed, IMO. Combo sees some play, but from this list i can't really see if it's capacle of dominating or no. Control is still viable with loads of different ways to go (just like aggro).
All, in all, the meta seems balanced with the tip of the scale going a bit into aggro, which i think it's not a really big surprise.
Of course being a meta from an online free league makes it a bit specific.
Any thoughts? I hope i got everything right.
