Use land search and growing increment creatures to bridge into larger spells, then keep mana and cards flowing. Expensive casts can grow Lecturer and increase its future mana output. Tender rewards its own counters with additional Fractals.

How this changes your picks

Rules-derived
Take it when
Use land search and growing increment creatures to bridge into larger spells, then keep mana and cards flowing. Look for support such as Studious First-Year // Rampant Growth and Topiary Lecturer.
What to take next
Expensive casts can grow Lecturer and increase its future mana output. Tender rewards its own counters with additional Fractals.
Wrong pick
Increment compares mana spent with current power or toughness twice. A free spell usually does not grow anything.
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.

How to read this

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.
