Tron Winrate Analysis: With/Without Tezzeret & Mycospawn (Since Aug 1st)

Here's the performance breakdown for Tron decks based on their inclusion of Tezzeret, Cruel Captain and Sowing Mycospawn:

Performance by Card Configuration:

🏆 Tezzeret Only: 58.9% winrate

  • 22 entries (63-44-8 record)
  • Best performing configuration

⚡ Mycospawn Only: 57.4% winrate

  • 49 entries (132-98-14 record)
  • Second best, larger sample size

📉 Neither Card: 50.1% winrate

  • 107 entries (218-217-23 record)
  • Largest sample, significantly lower winrate

❌ Both Cards: 0 entries

  • No Tron decks played both cards together

Key Insights:

  • Both individual cards show clear performance benefits over baseline Tron builds
  • Tezzeret edges out Mycospawn despite smaller sample (58.9% vs 57.4%)
  • Traditional Tron builds without either card are significantly weaker (50.1% vs ~58%)
  • No overlap: Players are choosing one card or the other, not both

The data suggests both cards are strong additions to Tron, with Tezzeret having a slight edge in winrate but Mycospawn being more popular (49 vs 22 entries).

  • Tezzeret builds show more consistent deep runs - Samuel's 10-4 record represents sustained performance
  • Sample sizes remain small but both cards are clearly enabling strong finishes

Sources:

Data from 24 tournaments in the last 3 weeks: 87.5% MTGO, 12.5% Melee. Recent examples include Nordic Masters and Modern Challenges.

if you do a trend analysis, recently people moved away from mycospawn build towards tezzeret builds? Because noodle_boi link is void since it has only one game? Or are there other good/great performing entries with the mycopawn build after august 23?

Mycospawn vs Tezzeret: Trend Analysis & Performance Update

You're absolutely right to question the 1-0 entry! Here's what the data shows:

📈 Trend Analysis (Since Aug 23rd):

Late August (Aug 23-31):

  • Mycospawn Only: 23 entries, 52.2% winrate
  • Tezzeret Only: 5 entries, 48.6% winrate

Early September:

  • Mycospawn Only: 2 entries, 0% winrate
  • Tezzeret Only: 2 entries, 58.3% winrate

🏆 Top Mycospawn Performances After Aug 23rd:

1. Argtigg - 83.3% winrate (5-1-2)

2. BERNASTORRES - 75.0% winrate (6-2)

3. LORiWWA - 71.4% winrate (5-2)

🔄 Key Insights:

  1. No clear trend toward Tezzeret yet - Mycospawn still had 23 entries vs 5 for Tezzeret in late August
  2. September sample is tiny (2 entries each) - too small to indicate real trend
  3. Strong Mycospawn performances continue - Multiple 70%+ winrates through Aug 30th
  4. Both cards remain viable - BERNASTORRES succeeded with both builds in the same period

The noodle_boi 1-0 was indeed misleading. The real story is Mycospawn builds continue performing well, with no clear migration to Tezzeret visible yet.

Data from 15 tournaments since Aug 23rd: 86.7% MTGO, 13.3% Melee.

between the typical/avg list in june and in august (of tron), do you see a major difference. I'm trying to understand the surge in winrate, but it's hard to explain

Let me analyze the typical Tron builds from both periods to identify what changed:

Major Tron Evolution: June → August 2025

🎯 Key Performance Jump:

  • June: 34 entries, 42.4% average winrate
  • August: 137 entries, 48.3% average winrate
  • +5.9% winrate improvement with 4x more entries

📊 Major Card Changes:

🔥 New Power Cards (August debuts):

  • Tezzeret, Cruel Captain: 0% → Present (from Edge of Eternities set)
  • Warping Wail: 0% → 40.2% presence
  • Mind Stone: 31.3% → 55.1% (+24% jump)

📈 Massive Adoption Increases:

  • Glaring Fleshraker: 37.5% → 57.5% (+20%)
  • Sire of Seven Deaths: 59.4% → 66.9% (+7.5%)
  • All is Dust: 75.0% → 74.0% (stable)

📉 Notable Decreases:

  • Sowing Mycospawn: 53.1% → 33.1% (-20%)
  • Chalice of the Void: 40.6% → 40.9% (stable)

🔍 The Surge Explained:

1. Tezzeret Impact: New artifact synergy planeswalker providing card advantage and artifact animation

2. Mind Stone Renaissance: Jumped from 31% to 55% - better mana fixing + card draw

3. Warping Wail Addition: 40% adoption of this utility spell for interaction

4. Meta Positioning: Tron became better positioned as other strategies shifted

The biggest factor appears to be Tezzeret, Cruel Captain from the August set release, combined with a shift toward more consistent mana rocks (Mind Stone) and utility spells (Warping Wail).
