The "good card" funnel
1221 brought · 514 playersOnce cast, 87% of this card is still on the battlefield at game end. This reflects how often it survives removal, not just whether it's a permanent.
Players who cast this card win 36% of the time (n=113) , vs 27% when it never left the library (n=689).
When players drew this card but left it in hand, they won 18% (n=61).
Read this as correlation, not as the card's contribution. Casting a card means you lived long enough to cast it, so this gap widens with mana value across every card we track.
Observed gap +8.4pp; 95% confidence interval +3.8pp to +13.0pp. Correlational, not causal: powerful payoffs also get cast more often in games you are already winning.
