How this changes your picks
Rules-derived- Take it when
- Reach four power early, then use attack rewards and haste to keep the opponent responding to large creatures. Look for support such as Beastbond Outcaster and Scalestorm Summoner.
- What to take next
- Sureshot supplies a four-power creature for Summoner’s attack check and gives other large creatures haste and trample.
- Wrong pick
- You need four power when the trigger checks. A Mercenary can boost power before combat, but does not supply lasting toughness.
- 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.
