Grixis commanders have a 22.2% win rate across 30,543 tracked casual Commander games in the last 180 days on Playgroup.gg. The 4-player expected baseline is 25%.

How are Grixis commander rankings calculated?

Rankings use pod-size-normalized win rates from games tracked through the Playgroup.gg app. A win in a 2-player game and a win in a 5-player game are weighted fairly against the 25% expected baseline for 4-player Commander.

Stats refresh every 6 hours. The last 180 days window means rankings shift gradually as new games are recorded and older games age out of the window.
