Best matchups: Goryo Reanimator & Jeskai Blink — Living End crushes other graveyard/value decks and blink strategies.
Worst matchups: Affinity and Esper Blink are brutal — artifact-heavy and hate-heavy decks punish Living End hard. Blue Belcher and Simic Ritual are also rough.
Coin flips: Boros Energy (82 matches, dead even at 50%) is the most statistically reliable matchup — and the one you'll face most often.
