How this changes your picks
Rules-derived- Take it when
- Trade efficiently, use draw and connive to improve your hand, and turn second-card triggers into growing threats and life swings.
- What to take next
- With Cavalry in play, casting Recruit after your normal draw adds a counter to Cavalry. Save instant draw for another turn when that creates an extra trigger.
- Wrong pick
- The opponent’s turn has no normal draw for you: drawing only one card there does not reach your second card.
- 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.
