🔍 Key Takeaways

  • Red Madness dominates presence at nearly 11% but posts a below-50% winrate — heavily played, not necessarily the strongest performer.
  • Esper Affinity is the standout: 7th most played but the highest winrate at 60.13% — a strong metagame pick.
  • Aura Bogles punches well above its weight with 59.72% WR despite modest presence.
  • Both Affinity variants (Esper + Grixis) are winning more than they lose — a trend worth watching.
