Get the Survivor tapped safely before your second main phase to manifest a new body. A profitable attack or another card's tap cost can do this, but dying in combat before that phase means no survival trigger at all. Preserve the engine when an attack cannot survive.

How to read this

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.
