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 good playable, but is sometimes cut (4.4/10).

Why. With Job select, two mana gets you a 1/1 Hero that attacks as a 2/1 and untaps an attacking creature each combat, a kind of pseudo-vigilance. A card for blue decks with light creatures.

Risks. The body is small and re-equipping costs three. If the Hero is killed, you keep the Equipment but lose the body.

In the draft. A fair filler for aggressive blue decks or decks that like Equipment. Take it if your curve lacks two-mana cards.

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.

Card in hand at some point in the game52.8 %(set average : 56.4 %)

Its place in the set

Common: rank 74 of 90
Blue: rank 34 of 41
Cost 2: rank 55 of 63
Average pick: 9.9 (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.
