How this changes your picks
Rules-derived- Take it when
- Deal damage early, then spend the second main phase on cards that reward an opponent losing life. Look for support such as Ravine Raider and Flamecache Gecko.
- What to take next
- An unblocked Raider can enable Gecko’s mana refund, allowing another spell after combat.
- Wrong pick
- Gecko gives mana only if the opponent already lost life this turn. Fireglass’s exiled card must be used before the turn ends.
- Mana & splash
- Count the colored sources needed to cast this card on time; a synergy payoff is not a reason to weaken an otherwise consistent mana base.

Observational, not a causal bonus. Both cards must be in the deck. Drawn means opening hand or normally drawn; each card counts once per game. Game-level approximate intervals do not account for repeated games by the same drafter.
At least 100 games in each of four drawn/not-drawn groups; adjusted for game length and screened by the lower confidence bound. Do not add these points to a card’s win rate.
