So Metalfoes had the second highest top 32 showing after Zoo with 7 tops. This card was seemingly released at the perfect time as far as Metalfoes are concerned. Also, "best deck now" Paleozoic only got 3 tops, as did Infernoid, though Infernoid did end up winning the event.

 

So the only relevant change to the meta was Rat to 2, so how did Metalfoes go from being not much more than rogue to suddenly the second best deck?

idk man, OP not enough info since theres quite a few things to consider

-Metalfoes as a means to grab Zoo cards (lunalight combo y/n?)

-how many cards above 40 it's possibly playing (expectation would be 60 to combat paleo)

OP's question kinda dumb if those lists ended up playing Zoo cards oof gg

 

I mean there's not much distinction between Pure Zoo and Metalfoe Zoo outside of what engine ur using to bridge towards Drident (Terrortop / baobaboon --> invoker) or your strategy vs dbarrier.

 

I'm impressed Zoo made it with only 2 Rat in a format without lyca but thats probably due to terrortop keeping the lunalight combo intact as well as Instant Fusion.

I've only seen 2 Metalfoes lists that topped, but they both ran Baobaboon and the Zoo engine. They also ran 41 cards and the Lunalight combo I believe. I imagine all of the top lists ran the Zoo engine. It's a Metalfoes deck with a Zoo engine, as opposed to Pure Zoo, which is the deck that got 11 tops.

Rewatching the stream is kinda depressing, Top 8 G1 match literally had metalfoes conduct two battle phases.

 

Yeah the event was a shambles as far as judging/cheating was concerned. Equally the fault of the opponent for not funking noticing though.
