Pauper's sitting at a Final Health Index of 63.9, which means things are mostly stable, but not perfect. This week, the main story is the community's restlessness with a few potentially dominant decks, even though the data suggests a relatively diverse format.

The numbers tell an interesting tale. We've got a solid Metagame Diversity Score of 75.8 and a strong Archetype Distribution Score of 87.9, indicating a healthy variety of decks. However, the Event Growth Score is a concerning 20.7, showing events are declining. Player Growth Score is only at 53.3, suggesting some struggle with bringing in new players. The B&R Health Score is decent at 70.0, signaling confidence after the latest announcement.

Looking at the Top 10, Mono Blue Aggro is the deck to beat at 15.1%. Jund is sitting at 9%, followed closely by Burn and Rakdos Aggro both at 8%. Red Deck Wins is still hanging in there at 6%. Affinity and Elves are tied at 5%, while Mono Black Aggro clocks in at 4%. Gruul Aggro and Boros Aggro round out the list at 3% each. Aggro strategies dominate the format with 72.3% of the meta.

The community is buzzing about potential imbalances. A key topic is Boros Synthesizer and Dimir Terror. No card changes were made in the latest B&R announcement, with Wizards postponing a decision on High Tide to gather more data.
