One of the best decks from Pro Tour Dragons of Tarkir got even better with the metagame settling down, and a whopping five decks in the Top 8 of Grand Prix Krakow were Esper Dragons — with an honorable mention for a sixth in Blue-Black Dragons. The finals was a mirror-match showdown between finalist Robin Dolar and winner Alexander Hayne, each putting control's full power on display.
