How are these measures computed?

Pick rating. The pick rating estimates what a card is worth when you choose it, before there are results: it combines several signals (expert evaluations, the choices of strong players, characteristics of the card such as its cost and rarity) and was tuned on the results of decks of strong players. It is for comparing cards while you draft.

Observed strength. The observed strength is the win rate of the games in which the card was in hand at some point (opening hand or drawn), from hundreds of thousands of real games of online draft players since the set came out. The rank compares the cards seen in at least 1,000 games. It does not correct for the strength of the deck the card is played in, and a result stays uncertain for a card that is played little (about 1.6 points of margin at 1,000 games).

One of the 10 best cards of the set (8.5/10).

Why. A five-mana sorcery that mixes 1/1 white Rabbit creature tokens, exile of a nonland permanent (its controller draws a card) and a return of a permanent with mana value 3 or less from your graveyard with an indestructible counter. You build the answer the game needs.

Risks. The removal mode gives your opponent a card. Five points of modes go quickly: choosing between removal and value takes thought.

In the draft. A bomb to take high in a white deck. The flexible removal and the tokens justify its slot; it pairs well with green or black.

Win rate by colour pair

Percentage of games won by the decks of each pair that play the card, with the number of games. The pairs are the two main colors of the deck: when the card has a color outside the pair, the deck plays it as a splash (marked “splash”). A pair that has an archetype in this set leads to its guide.
