The "good card" funnel
1330 brought · 527 playersOnce cast, 98% 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 26% of the time (n=168) , vs 26% when it never left the library (n=758).
When players drew this card but left it in hand, they won 21% (n=42).
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 -0.5pp; 95% confidence interval -4.6pp to +3.6pp. Correlational, not causal: powerful payoffs also get cast more often in games you are already winning.
