Note that 4 out of 7 decks from this article are forgeable.

That's 5 out of 8 top-placing decks in a high-level Standard tournament (one of the DarkBlade decklists placed twice in the top 8).

Or, counting another way, 3 out of 6 archetypes (Vampires, Caw-Blade and DarkBlade - the other 3 are Valakut, Grixis Exarch Twin and RUG Exarch Twin).

Whichever way you split it, I think that's an excellent result for forge :)

Cool. Do you have a list of the missing?

If you mean the whole decklists, it's probably simplest to follow the link provided.

If you mean which cards are missing from forge, they are:

Valakut: Summoning Trap.
Grixis Exarch Twin: Deceiver Exarch, Spellskite.
RUG Exarch Twin: Deceiver Exarch.

It's a shame the extra targeting restrictions on the Exarch prevented it from being copy-pasted from Pestermite.

The Summoning part of Summoning Trap is scriptable, it's just the Trap part that needs groundwork.
