Iowa Top 8! Decklists and Congrats!!!

Here are the decklists from the Top 8 competitors from this past weekend's Midwest Masters Series Open in Iowa. Despite the expected Jund and U/W Control decks, there were a few new decks in the mix! Read on for these and for the new tech from the decks you already know!

Congratulations to all top 8 competitors, and we will see you at the $10,000 Championship at Gencon!!!

Please note: the Top 8 competitors agreed to a prize split, so the following are ranked by standings after swiss, and not by playoff results.
