Legacy Tron has re-emerged in volume after the Candelabra of Tawnos ban. MTGGoldfish's weekly dataset covered 243 decklists from five MTGO Challenges with usable data, plus a sixth 60-player event whose lists were unavailable. Tron was the week's most-played archetype at 30 copies and placed variants into several Top 8s.
The result is an adoption trend rather than evidence of format dominance. Tron posted a 45.8% non-mirror win rate for the week; across roughly 95 post-ban entries it sits at 49.9%. The newer blue builds use Stock Up and free countermagic alongside colorless payoffs, and their popularity makes the archetype a relevant watch heading into Eternal Weekend.
