How to read it

  • Row against column. Find your deck on the left, the deck you expect across the top: the number is how often the row deck wins that matchup. Read the mirror cell to see the same matchup from the other side; the two add up to about 100.
  • The overall number next to a deck is its win rate against the field, weighted by how often each matchup was played and pulled towards 50% when a matchup has few matches.
  • Faded cells rest on fewer than 20 matches. Hover any cell for its exact number, the matches behind it and the range the real win rate likely sits in.
  • These are field averages. Your own list, your sideboard and how you play it move your results. The point of tracking yours on MyDeckStats is to see where you differ from this table.

Matches tracked over the last 180 days across 143 decks, imported on 9 October 2026 and refreshed regularly.
