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)
  • Altar of Dementia: AI can't play it
  • Diabolic Intent: AI can't play it
  • Innocent Blood: AI can't play it
  • Orcish Bowmasters: adjusted to make room for another replacement
  • Peer into the Abyss: adjusted to make room for another replacement
  • Phyrexian Tower: AI can't play it
  • Spymaster's Vault: adjusted to make room for another replacement
  • Toxic Deluge: AI can't play it
  • Viscera Seer: AI can't play it
Played instead in the tournament
  • Blasphemous Edict: replacement
  • Gaius van Baelsar: replacement
  • Priest of Forgotten Gods: replacement
  • Sensei's Divining Top: replacement
  • Sheoldred, the Apocalypse: replacement
  • Umbral Collar Zealot: replacement
  • Vincent Valentine // Galian Beast: replacement
