Does anyone know what the Modern meta was like when in started in 2011, or a bit later in 2012? What decks were around, what cards were popular, etc...
Similar to now - high levels of Jund, Affinity, Tron, Affinity.

Stanislav Cifka piloted an Eggs deck and won the RTR Pro Tour with it, I think.

Eggs, Affinity, Pod, Tron, Twin, and Jund were the top decks. Pretty much what Chief said. Jund was absolutely dominant, though, thanks to Bloodbraid Elf and then briefly Deathrite Shaman.

UWR Control was still pretty solid back then, too.

No mention of zoo? I mean, it says it right there in the link notamardybum posted.
@canterlotguardian Unless I'm reading it wrong, zoo was more popular than jund and affinity combined.

You can look at 2012 decks as well.
