The shape of the field matches the run-up to Paris. Fang, Levia, and Jarl were already the expected frontrunners after Cindra reached Living Legend and rotated out of Classic Constructed, and the Day 1 numbers show the field agreed. Ser Boltyn and Aurora round out a top five that leaves little room for surprises heading into Day 2.
