Adjusted for the Forge AI

The list above is the best tested version, the way you would play it in real games. The Forge AI can't play a few cards – they were replaced in the tournament (the deck builder also rearranges other slots within the budget). The win rate comes from games with these replacements; the original cards themselves were not tested by the AI.

In the list (original cards)
  • Diabolic Intent: AI can't play it
  • Phyrexian Tower: AI can't play it
  • Polluted Delta: adjusted to make room for another replacement
  • Twilight Mire: AI can't play it
  • Viridescent Bog: AI can't play it
Played instead in the tournament
  • Bloodstained Mire: replacement
  • Boseiju, Who Endures: replacement
  • Golgari Rot Farm: replacement
  • Ruthless Knave: replacement
