The "good card" funnel
493 brought · 260 playersOnce cast, 65% 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 29% of the time (n=47) , vs 28% when it never left the library (n=257).
When players drew this card but left it in hand, they won 25% (n=24).
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 +0.3pp; 95% confidence interval -7.3pp to +7.9pp. Correlational, not causal: powerful payoffs also get cast more often in games you are already winning.
