AI note: the Forge AI can't play 7 cards of this deck (replaced with similar cards in the Forge games) and plays 4 more only partially well. This result is therefore somewhat less meaningful. Affected cards
At most €400 including the commander. If prices rise above that, the shopping list is rebuilt automatically.

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.
- Darkwater Catacombs: AI can't play it
- Desolate Mire: AI can't play it
- Fetid Heath: AI can't play it
- Skycloud Expanse: AI can't play it
- Stroke of Midnight: adjusted to make room for another replacement
- Sunken Ruins: AI can't play it
- Swan Song: AI can't play it
- Toxic Deluge: AI can't play it
- City of Brass: replacement
- Decanter of Endless Water: replacement
- Demolition Field: replacement
- Final Judgment: replacement
- Mental Misstep: replacement
- Port Town: replacement

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.
1 more tested card is still collecting games.
