How this changes your picks
Rules-derived- Take it when
- Use surveil, milling and trading creatures to create valuable recursion targets while maintaining enough resources for sacrifice costs.
- What to take next
- Broodtender can sacrifice itself to return any creature or Spacecraft, including Pinnacle Kill-Ship. Scrounge is a separate cheaper option only for targets with mana value five or less.
- Wrong pick
- Scrounge cannot return Pinnacle Kill-Ship or the creature sacrificed to pay for Scrounge. Its target must already exist in the graveyard when targets are chosen.
- 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.
