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.
- Earthbending Student: adjusted to make room for another replacement
- Mindslaver: AI can't play it
- Mishra's Bauble: AI can't play it
- Mycosynth Lattice: AI plays it poorly
- Sylvan Safekeeper: AI can't play it
- Vibrant Cityscape: adjusted to make room for another replacement
- Arid Mesa: replacement
- Expedition Map: replacement
- Heroic Intervention: replacement
- Inspiring Call: replacement
- Liquimetal Coating: replacement
- Moraug, Fury of Akoum: test

What the program has learned
Each tournament the deck tests one card. A verdict needs at least 40 games with and without the card. Since the deck is rebuilt every tournament with current prices and data, tested cards can drop out again later.
No swap has enough games for a verdict yet.
4 more tested cards are still collecting games.
