How this changes your picks
Rules-derived- Take it when
- Trade efficiently, use selection and flashback to keep resources flowing, and finish with evasive threats after stabilizing your life total.
- What to take next
- Use cheap interaction to make a safe Locke attack for filtering, then keep mana to stop the strongest return attack. Revelation can set up later flashback without requiring a combat connection.
- Wrong pick
- Sanctum stops activated abilities but not static or triggered abilities. A tapped engine can remain dangerous even when it cannot attack.
- 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.
