Prowess Splash Comparison (Last 60 Days)

Based on tournament data from 164 Prowess decks, here are the main splash variants:

Temur Prowess (Red-Blue-Green): 92.7% of builds

  • Core Package: Mutagenic Growth (94% of decks) provides the green splash
  • Mana Base: Primarily red-blue with green sources for Mutagenic Growth
  • Performance: 47.9% winrate (305-332 record)
  • Strategy: Focuses on explosive turns with free pump spells

Jeskai Prowess (Red-Blue-White): 5.5% of builds

  • Key Cards: Sacred Foundry (16% presence), Prismatic Ending (5% presence), Phlage (5% presence)
  • Performance: 45.2% winrate (14-17 record)
  • Strategy: Trades explosive potential for removal/interaction

Other Variants: <2% combined

  • Straight RU, RW splashes exist but are extremely rare

Key Differences:

  • Temur dominates due to Mutagenic Growth's synergy with the deck's gameplan
  • Jeskai offers better removal but at the cost of explosive potential
  • The format heavily favors the Temur build's consistency and power

Current Meta Position:

Prowess overall has a 49.0% winrate across 37 tournaments, with Temur being the clearly superior variant.
