Bushiroad is actually publishing all the decks played in BCS regionals this year (starting with the second one), so I don’t have to try to collect that data myself. (You can find that on the BCS 25/26 event reports page.) That doesn’t mean I’m not making a spreadsheet, of course; having all this data means we can actually get true representation and conversion numbers (if we ignore the first regional, Rosemont), and I’m also going through and recording the climax lineups of each deck beyond just the triggers, and linking the decklogs (while the event reports let you view the decklogs, actually getting a link is a bit awkward).
So without further ado, here’s the spreadsheet; it only has two regionals’ worth of data right now, but hopefully it’s somewhat interesting now and will get more so as the season progresses.
This is also probably a good place to mention a trick I used to show the deck images on (a copy of) the event report. You can view the page source of an event report page and copy/download that to a text file, then use something like Notepad++ to do a regex find/replace on it to add the deck images (linked to the deck lists), then save it as an html file and open it with your browser.
Find:
data-deck-id="([^"]+)">
Replace with:
$0\n<td><a href="https://decklog-en.bushiroad.com/view/$1"><img src="https://decklog-en.bushiroad.com/deckimages/$1.png" style="max-width: 450px" /></a></td>
It’s not the cleanest or most elegant thing (the deck images end up overlapping the placements, and it’s liable to stop working in the future if bushiroad changes how these pages are implemented), but it’s a quick way to be able to glance through all the decks without having to click on each one.
