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. Drawing two cards when you cast it means it always replaces itself, even if it is countered. At seven mana it is a 4/4 flyer with annihilator 1: each attack, the defender sacrifices a permanent of their choice. Evoked, it leaves no creature, but you draw two cards for three mana.

Risks. Seven mana is a lot, and evoke needs blue mana and leaves nothing on the battlefield. It is slow against an aggressive deck.

In the draft. A good top-end card for a blue deck that reaches the late turns. One is usually enough, two with ramp; not over your removal.

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 game56.5 %(set average : 56.2 %)

Its place in the set

Rare: rank 38 of 78
Colourless: rank 32 of 85
Cost 7: rank 2 of 11
Average pick: 1.6 (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.
