Decks

Much of the talk after the 2009 World Championship centred on André Coimbra's deck. The deck was designed by professional Magic: The Gathering writer Mike Flores, who called the deck 'Naya Lightsaber'. The deck was designed to beat Jund, the dominant deck at the time, and did just that when Coimbra won the World Championships finals 3–0 against David Reitbauer's Jund deck.MTG 2009 World Championship Finals Coverage
