Here are Izzet Cutter's matchup winrates against the top 10 Modern archetypes over the last 60 days (Mar 5 - May 5, 2026). Note that several matchups have low sample sizes, so treat those with caution.

FAVORABLE MATCHUPS

  • vs Prowess: 85.7% (6-1, 7 matches)
  • vs Domain Zoo: 83.3% (5-1, 6 matches)
  • vs Jeskai Blink: 66.7% (8-4, 12 decisive)
  • vs Ruby Storm: 66.7% (6-3, 9 decisive)
  • vs Tron: 66.7% (4-2, 6 matches)

ROUGHLY EVEN MATCHUPS

  • vs Goryo Reanimator: 55.6% (5-4, 9 matches)
  • vs Affinity: 52.4% (11-10, 21 matches)

UNFAVORABLE MATCHUPS

  • vs Boros Energy: 44.4% (12-15, 27 matches) — the most data-rich matchup
  • vs Neobrand: 25.0% (1-3, 4 matches) — very small sample
  • vs Amulet Titan: 20.0% (2-8, 10 matches) — clear unfavorable matchup

The standout concern is Amulet Titan, where Izzet Cutter goes 2-8 (20%). Boros Energy, the format's most-played deck at 20% presence, is also a slight negative matchup at 44.4%. On the flip side, the Prowess and Domain Zoo matchups look very strong, though those sample sizes are small. The most reliable data point is the Boros Energy matchup (27 matches), which shows a genuine weakness.
