I'll analyze postboard games involving Amulet Titan and examine how Scapeshift affects winrate after sideboarding. Let me start by gathering the necessary data.
Now let me analyze postboard games specifically, looking at matches involving Amulet Titan with and without Scapeshift after sideboarding.
Now let me analyze the matchup-specific performance with Scapeshift in postboard games:
Let me also get sources for this analysis:
Based on my analysis of postboard games involving Amulet Titan from July through September 2025, Scapeshift shows a modest negative impact on the deck's postboard winrate. Amulet Titan builds with Scapeshift in the main deck achieved a 52.6% winrate (1,366 wins, 1,231 losses) compared to 59.5% for builds without Scapeshift (22 wins, 15 losses) in postboard games. However, the sample size for non-Scapeshift builds is very small (37 games), making this comparison less reliable.
Looking at specific matchups where Scapeshift performs well or poorly in postboard games, the card shows strong performance against Tron (83.1% winrate), Mardu Energy (85.7%), Orzhov Blink (66.7%), Affinity (65.0%), and Domain Zoo (63.4%). These matchups likely benefit from Scapeshift's ability to assemble combo kills or stabilize the board state. Conversely, Scapeshift performs poorly against fast combo decks and control strategies - notably Ruby Storm (14.0% winrate), Mill (20.0%), Samwise (21.4%), Simic Ritual (22.2%), and Neobrand (29.0%). Against control, Azorius Control shows a concerning 34.0% postboard winrate, suggesting Scapeshift builds struggle against permission-heavy strategies after sideboarding.
The data indicates that while Scapeshift remains a format staple in Amulet Titan (present in 84% of recent builds), its postboard utility is matchup-dependent, excelling against midrange and slower strategies but struggling against fast combo and hard control archetypes.

I'll analyze Amulet Titan's postboard performance with and without Scapeshift, then compare against the deck's baseline winrate in those same matchups to isolate Scapeshift's actual impact.
Comparing Scapeshift builds vs non-Scapeshift builds in postboard games reveals key matchup dependencies. Amulet Titan with Scapeshift achieves 57.1% postboard winrate vs 52.8% without Scapeshift across matchups with sufficient data.
The card provides significant advantages against ramp strategies (Ramp Eldrazi +13.6% vs baseline, Orzhov Blink +10.5%) and combo decks (Grinding Breach +14.4%), but underperforms against aggressive decks where it's too slow. Against control matchups, Scapeshift performs roughly at baseline levels, suggesting it's a lateral choice rather than an upgrade.
Most notably, builds without Scapeshift show better performance against fast combo (Blue Belcher 68.8% vs 57.1% with Scapeshift) and mirrors (64.7% vs 58.0%), indicating the card may be a liability in racing scenarios where speed matters more than versatility.

I'll analyze Amulet Titan's postboard performance across matchups when NOT playing Scapeshift.
I notice the results show 0 wins/losses for all matchups, which suggests an issue with the query. Let me check the match results data more carefully:
Good, now I can see the match results. Let me get the complete matchup breakdown for Amulet Titan builds without Scapeshift:
Now let me get sources for this analysis:
Amulet Titan builds without Scapeshift show distinct postboard matchup performance patterns. Best matchups include Hardened Scales (77.5%), Burn (70.8%), and Tron (68.4%), suggesting these builds excel against creature combo and ramp strategies. The deck performs well against traditional aggro like Prowess (63.4%) and midrange like Domain Zoo (57.6%).
However, builds without Scapeshift struggle significantly against control and tempo decks. Poor matchups include Nadu (36.8%), Merfolk (38.7%), Azorius Control (38.9%), and Omnath Control (39.0%). The deck also underperforms against Murktide (41.1%) and combo decks like Ruby Storm (41.0%) and Footfalls (42.4%).
The data suggests builds without Scapeshift rely more heavily on the traditional Amulet-Titan gameplan, performing well when that plan is effective but lacking the versatility to adapt in difficult matchups where alternative win conditions become crucial.
