So for the top 8 we have:Lee Shin Tian playing RUG Control, Kelvin Chew playing UG infect, Yuuya Watanabe playing Jund (anyone else see that coming), David Ochoa playing Jund, Eduardo Sajgalik playing U/W aggro control, Pedro Carvalho playing Affinity, Stanislav Cifka playing Second Sunrise, Willy Edel playing Jund

So it seems the overall best performing deck is jund. Stanislav did have a 15-0 start though with second sunrise and his izzet draft deck, losing only to Kelvin Chew putting him at 15-1. I for one am glad to see Yuuya Watanabe in the top 8. I love seeing pro players that are able to consistantly do very well at back to back events. That is also the main reason I wanted to see Jon Finkel in the top 8. I thought it would be really cool to see him make 3 pro tour top 8s in a row. Anyway, what are your thoughts on the top 8? Do you agree with the players who are in it? Do you think someone else should be in there but go cheated out of it? Just post it in this thread and we all can discuss it!
