Innistrad: Crimson Vow's Impact on competitive formats

Innistrad: Crimson Vow promises new vampires and Olivia's wedding. The set has already been released and has already made appearances in all formats. Let's check here what has changed in the last week and what cards are showing up.

These lists were made using our Metagame page: we collect information from decks 5-0, winners of Playoffs, Challenges and other tournaments. The work here was to process the cards that most appeared in these winning decks; just a description of what's going on in the metagame for each format.

We do not count reprints or basic lands. Let's go then!

Many cards are still being tested. Wandering Mind comes up with 15 copies in 8 decks, which shows they are still putting 1-2 cards per deck to check its power. We'll probably see more changes next week to this list and I plan to be here to show you if there are any!
