Fish wins the prize with over thirty Fish variants poking about, comprising somewhere in the neighborhood of 25% of the field. Oath is making a decent showing and Control Slaver is alive and kickin' with almost fifteen players piloting it.
Workshops are all over the place, though they're almost evenly divided between Aggro and Stax. Psychatogs are also out in surprising numbers with ten decks sporting the toothy monster.
And finally everyone's favorite: Combo. Oath could fit into the combo category, bringing the count to almost forty.
As for the rest... they aren't nearly as bad as you might think. There are quite a few decks that could fit into any category, but with only one copy in the field, it's really not something to be concerned with.
