How this changes your picks
Rules-derived- Take it when
- Pair white’s targeting spells with green counter payoffs, protecting an early board while increment adds lasting size. Look for support such as Elite Interceptor // Rejoinder and Dig Site Inventory.
- What to take next
- Inventory supplies a permanent counter, and Emil gives creatures with counters trample so that size can get through.
- Wrong pick
- This pairing has no published college identity or gold signpost. Prioritize individually useful cards and a reliable two-color curve.
- Mana & splash
- Count the colored sources needed to cast this card on time; a synergy payoff is not a reason to weaken an otherwise consistent mana base.

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.
