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).
Good playable that always makes the cut (6.2/10).
Why. A 6/6 flier with ward 2 for seven mana that also gives your opponents' creatures -3/-0 until your next turn. It holds the ground, rules the air, and ends the game quickly.
Risks. Seven mana is heavy: you must survive and hit your land drops. Edicts still answer it, and an opponent who pays two extra mana can target it despite ward 2.
In the draft. A blue top-end finisher. One copy is enough in a deck able to survive the early game.
Win rate of the card
Percentage of games won by the decks that play this card, depending on when it shows up, from the real games of the set.
Gap when it is drawn, against the games where it is not : +4.0 win-rate points
Its place in the set
- Uncommon: rank 30 of 100
- Blue: rank 11 of 41
- Cost 7: rank 4 of 8
- Average pick: 4.5 (1 = taken first from a pack; the lower the number, the earlier players choose it)
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.
