The Izzet result returned Pauper. Let me search for the specific Izzet archetype in Modern and pull matchup data against the top meta decks simultaneously.
The top result is Standard. The main Izzet archetype in Modern is "Prowess." Let me now get matchup data for all the top Modern decks vs Prowess.
Here's your full breakdown for playing into a Prowess-heavy Modern field:
| Deck | vs. Prowess WR | Meta Share | Overall WR |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🥇 Amulet Titan | 66.7% | 3.6% | 52.9% |
| 🥈 Affinity | 63.5% | 9.3% | 53.0% |
| Domain Zoo | 54.2% | 3.3% | 50.4% |
| Tron | 53.9% | 3.6% | 46.3% |
| Azorius Control | 55.0% | 3.5% | 49.5% |
| Azorius Blink | 50.0% | 2.2% | 57.3% |
| Boros Energy | 44.6% | 11.6% | 52.1% |
| Yawgmoth | 41.7% | 1.7% | 51.6% |
| Blue Belcher | 35.3% | 2.4% | 57.0% |
| Broodscale | 36.0% | 3.8% | 53.5% |
1. Amulet Titan — Best WR vs Prowess at 66.7% and still a solid overall deck. Goes over the top of Prowess's gameplan entirely — they can't race a Titan.
2. Affinity — Strong 63.5% matchup with the highest meta presence among the winners here (9.3%). The artifact synergies and resilient threats are tough for Prowess to handle efficiently. Also a top-tier deck overall.
3. Azorius Control — 55% matchup, reasonable meta share, and the tools (counterspells, wraths) naturally line up well against Prowess's spell-heavy strategy.
⚠️ Avoid: Blue Belcher and Broodscale are both below 40% vs Prowess — don't sleeve these up if you expect a heavy Izzet field!
