Turns out that was a shitty idea, huh

I would honestly be very interested in hearing about your 40 archetypes as well :o

Yes, I'll do it like this. And round to full numbers where needed. This way I can also get win percentages: 4 cards done, 496 to go. Yes, exactly. It's just not possible to have a good time with friends, play and joke around AND also keep track of all the details. No GIHWR here.

But now I seriously have a problem here. See, my document looks like eight pages of this: The first column is the matches won, the second the number of drafts the card was used in, and then the quote I calculated from the first two numbers. Now, I could of course just re-do this table with...

Really cool contest idea. And I have already found my egg.

Is it really broken? I doubt it's better than Brainstorm considering dredge 1 is far less dangerous than dredge 4+ and is also not crazy at filling your 'yard. Or, wait. Could it dredge from it's own draw?

See, @Mown is right in terms of how I've been doing it. I check how many matches a card won per draft, which means for one use (either maindecked or brought in from the sideboard in a relevant manner) it can get 0, 1, 2 or 3 points. You @Onderzeeboot are probably right though, that game wins...

I have this insider tip for you

They are definitely notfor every deck. Also, if they were average, they would be closer to 1.5, right?

The talismans aren't even that good in my environment. In the past 13 drafts, they have all together been maindecked 28 times and they only won 30 matches. That's barely a 1.07 match win rate. At the same time, my green ramp spells have been played 54 times and collected 82 wins, which is a 1.52...

No. If certain conditions are met; most importantly, greens ramp must be better (which can be achieved by being cheaper or more synergistic or more explosive). Second, it needs to be more plentiful (you should be able to build a ramp deck without mana rocks but not without green).

Yeah. I'll just test the Ojutai Exemplars and then we will go back to Tarkir in 10 months, fingers crossed that we get more white prowess support.

Cathar's Companion I've heard companions are broken. But I wonder if this one could even pull it's weight in a prowess deck.

It has been the new norm for me for years that my testing list for new sets is between 1 and 5 cards. Modern Horizons sets used to be an exception, but this one isn't. Themes like energy and eldrazi/colorless and the presence of dfcs made many cards unappealing for me. Many of my hopes for this...

I think the previous version was much more elegant and cooler.

But it only works in mutiplayer

I mean, how much of a target does it really need? Even if gets back some random 2-drop for a free attack/sacrifice (twice) while being a 3/2 flier that dies into a 2/1 flier, that's already a lot of value, isn't it?

Puppeteer Clique To what degree does this scale with the environment?

Territory Culler I like this card. See, on a green 5-drop that doesn't generate immediate value and isn't even guaranteed to do so next turn, I'm fine with slightly pushed stats. It might be just what I wanted for the landfall card I was looking for. It rewards you for having was to reliably...

They are like a pretty good planeswalker, coming down and immediately generatingabout a card worth of value, then continue to snowball your opponent out of the game, if they can't find a removal spell asap. And I have ptbs playing against them in retail draft.
