🔑 Key Takeaways

  • Surgical Extraction dominates Modern — fast, flexible, and fits any deck
  • Leyline of the Void is Legacy's go-to (often run as a full playset)
  • Rest in Peace is the king of Pioneer & Standard
  • Relic of Progenitus is Pauper's #1 (it's one of the few powerful options available)
  • Grafdigger's Cage leads Vintage — it doubles as combo hate there
