- The Construct grows with your artifacts, while spare Equipment and tokens can tap for blue mana through Urza’s ability. Even a newly entered artifact creature can pay that cost. Keep an artifact board for both mana and threat size, and remember a land exiled by the five-mana ability still needs an available land play.

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.
