๐ŸŽฏ What Your 3 Candidates Target

Torpor Orb โ†’ Hits Devoted Combo (38%), Broodscale (38.7%), Neobrand (43.3%), and Esper Blink ETBs โ€” all bad-to-rough matchups. Huge upside. Add it.

Extinguisher Battleship โ†’ Hammers Affinity (42%) and artifact-heavy boards. Already at 79.5% community adoption โ€” it's basically a wishboard staple. Add it.

Haywire Mite โ†’ Good against Affinity and Boros Energy (enchantment/artifact hate). More niche but has merit if those are common in your local meta.


โœ‚๏ธ What to Cut

Your weakest slots based on low adoption + redundancy:

  1. Skysovereign, Consul Flagship (15.4% adoption) โ€” Narrow, slow, mostly outclassed by Cityscape Leveler for big threat slots.
  2. The Ten Rings (24.9% adoption) โ€” Your lowest-adoption non-redundancy card. Situational.
  3. Tormod's Crypt (85.8%) vs Grafdigger's Cage (74.8%): you have both graveyard pieces + your Living End/Goryo matchups are already winning. If cutting to make room, Tormod's Crypt is the more redundant one (Cage does more against Goryo).

My recommendation: Cut Skysovereign, The Ten Rings, and Tormod's Crypt โ†’ Add Torpor Orb, Extinguisher Battleship, and Haywire Mite. This shores up your worst matchups (combo, artifacts) while keeping your strong MU coverage intact.
