How this changes your picks
Rules-derived- Take it when
- Defend with cheap interaction and enchantment bodies, use eerie to improve draws and drain life, then win through flying threats and repeated card advantage.
- What to take next
- Establish Skullsnap Nuisance or Balemurk Leech, then hold up Glimmerburst. Its Glimmer token is an enchantment entry that creates the eerie reward while the spell replenishes your hand.
- Wrong pick
- Fear of Infinity cannot block even though it has lifelink. Keep genuine defensive creatures and remember returning it with eerie puts it into your hand, requiring another cast.
- Mana & splash
- Keep the colored sources needed for early spells. A synergy payoff does not automatically justify a splash.

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.
