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 very best mythics of the format (7.6/10).

Why. A three-mana 3/4 with vigilance that enters prepared: for two mana you can cast its copy and return any card from your graveyard to your hand. A good body with built-in value.

Risks. Its re-preparing ability is hard to turn on: you need eight or more lands. The body is solid, nothing more.

In the draft. A good green pick, taken at a middling pick. Best in a deck with valuable cards to recover.

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 game59.3 %(set average : 56.3 %)
Card in the opening hand55.7 %(set average : 54.9 %)
Card drawn during the game61.5 %(set average : 57.2 %)

Gap when it is drawn, against the games where it is not : +7.8 win-rate points

Its place in the set

  • Mythic: rank 6 of 20
  • Green: rank 5 of 32
  • Cost 3: rank 7 of 66
  • 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.
