How this changes your picks
Rules-derived- Take it when
- Mill creatures while developing mana, then use recursion to replay your strongest threats and enter abilities. Look for support such as Patient Naturalist and Hollow Marauder.
- What to take next
- Naturalist helps find mana and puts creature cards in the graveyard, reducing Marauder’s cost and stocking recursion targets.
- Wrong pick
- Marauder’s discount counts creature cards, not every graveyard card. Avoid milling so much that a long game empties your library.
- 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.
