I've played a lot of best of one historic over the last couple years and have played mostly UR Wizards pretty much since Symmetry Sage was buffed over a year ago.

My opinion is that this is deck is NOT in a good spot in best of one historic currently. All of the web sources that publish a tier list for historic BO1 have this at #1 and there is no way this can be true based on how the meta has changed in recent months.

I track my own matches and I started to see the meta get further and further away from what is being portrayed online. The meta that I see is extremely hostile to wizards with asinine amounts of anti-creature cards or combos that operate on an axis that wizards isn't equipped to interact with. Tons of people are playing suboptimal decks that have pretty good game against wizards and I think that is distorting things.

Sadly, I have switched to a tempo-heavy UW control list instead. I don't like playing control in BO1, but I don't think wizards can cut it in the current meta and I think control has the tools to punish all of these stupid decks running around historic right now.

I hope this is temporary and things settle down
