I'll look up Azorius Control and its matchups. Let me start by resolving the archetype and getting the Modern format context.
Good, found it in Modern. Now let me pull the top archetypes in the meta to know which matchups to check, then calculate all the matchup winrates in parallel.
Now let me query all the major matchups for Azorius Control in parallel:
Here is the full matchup breakdown for Azorius Control in Modern over the last ~3 months, sorted by winrate:
BEST MATCHUPS
Ruby Storm: 80.6% (54-13, 67 matches) — a dominant favorite, likely due to counterspells and a fast clock disrupting the storm gameplan before it assembles.
Neobrand: 72.2% (26-10, 36 matches) — another combo deck that struggles into interaction.
Amulet Titan: 66.7% (22-11, 33 matches) — solid edge, sample is a bit smaller but consistent.
Boros Ponza: 65.6% (42-22, 64 matches) — a reliable matchup with a good-sized sample.
Devoted Combo: 55.0% (33-27, 60 matches) — slight edge.
Living End: 55.6% (25-20, 45 matches) — slightly favorable.
WORST MATCHUPS
Dimir Frog: 36.9% (24-41, 65 matches) — by far the worst matchup in the current meta. The Psychic Frog + Orcish Bowmasters package punishes control's draw-heavy gameplan hard.
Fight Rigging Eldrazi: 41.3% (19-27, 46 matches) — another rough spot.
Affinity: 44.6% (41-51, 92 matches) — a large sample and a meaningful unfavorable matchup; the artifact-heavy gameplan comes down too fast.
Domain Zoo: 44.7% (17-21, 38 matches) — slightly unfavorable.
Goryo Reanimator: 47.1% (72-81, 153 matches) — effectively a coin flip but just on the wrong side of 50.
The overall picture is that Azorius Control preys on slower combo decks (especially storm-style strategies) but struggles against faster or card-advantage-efficient threats, with Dimir Frog being a particularly painful weakness given its 10% meta presence.
