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).
A solid playable that rarely gets cut (5.2/10).
Why. A 4/7 Spacecraft for six that returns up to two non-Spacecraft creatures to their owners' hands, a big tempo swing. Once stationed to 9 it flies and mills the defending player for four cards when it attacks.
Risks. Six mana, and it only becomes a creature after a lot of charge counters. Bouncing does not remove creatures, it only slows them.
In the draft. A blue tempo uncommon, fine in a slow deck. Take it as a control card, with the blue pairs.
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.

Its place in the set
- Uncommon: rank 62 of 100
- Blue: rank 26 of 41
- Cost 6: rank 8 of 15
- Average pick: 4.8 (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.
splash

Intrinsic ratings: they do not take into account the cards you have already picked. They matter most for the first pick of the first pack.
