Cards

6-month tournament decklists, oracle-normalized through Scryfall. Commander cards are excluded. Read performance as a clue, not a verdict: some cards are harder to pilot, newer, or chosen by specific players, which can move PPG without making the card good or bad by itself.

What Makes This Deck

Cards here are scored by inclusion shape, lift, recent growth, and correlated PPG delta. Lift is how much more common a card is here than in the 6-month field.

Core shell means cards this deck almost always plays. Signature cards are less universal cards that make this commander distinct from the field.
