The "good card" funnel
846 brought · 351 playersOnce cast, 94% 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 27% of the time (n=93) , vs 25% when it never left the library (n=524).
When players drew this card but left it in hand, they won 21% (n=42) — about the same as leaving it in the library. Those players survived long enough to draw it, so the gap above is about the card resolving, not just about surviving.
Observed gap +1.8pp; 95% confidence interval -3.7pp to +7.3pp. Correlational, not causal: powerful payoffs also get cast more often in games you are already winning.
