Post-production notes:
This episode focuses mostly on the Eldrazi deck's impact on modern, but doesn't really mention other players in the metagame. MTG Goldfish wrote a great article on other decks that had a good showing at the Pro Tour that you should look at to see what other decks have a fighting chance. You can read the article here: http://www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/pro-tour-ogw-eldrazi-winners-and-decks
Also, Modern Nexus had a similar article, for additional reference: http://modernnexus.com/keeping-perspective-and-calm-after-pro-tour-oath/
