How this changes your picks
Rules-derived- Take it when
- Build mana and board presence, then spend four or more mana on productive turns to grow expend threats. Look for support such as Bakersbane Duo and Roughshod Duo.
- What to take next
- With both in play, crossing four mana spent grows Mentor and gives a creature a temporary trampling boost.
- Wrong pick
- Expend does not repeat at eight mana. Mana spent activating Food or leveling a Class is not spent casting a spell.
- 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.
