- Use the cheap front to surveil and gain life, then flash it back for four mana to get a new 4/4 Saga with a finality counter. The final chapter boosts your other creatures after the Saga leaves, so maintain a board. You cannot simply cast the costless Saga face from hand.

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.
