can you look at the performance of Tron depending on the presence of 2 swamps or 1 swamp and one wastes

I'll analyze how Tron's performance varies based on having 2 Swamps vs 1 Swamp + 1 Wastes in Modern. Let me gather the necessary data.

Now let me search for the specific cards to get their IDs:

Now let me query the database to analyze Tron's performance based on these different land configurations:

Tron Performance Analysis: 2 Swamps vs 1 Swamp + 1 Wastes

Based on tournament data from the last two months (Aug-Sep 2025), here's how different Swamp/Wastes configurations perform in Modern Tron:

Performance Breakdown:

1 Swamp + 1 Wastes (Most Popular)

  • 149 entries (46% of Tron decks)
  • 52.1% winrate (337W-310L)
  • This is the current meta preference

2 Swamps

  • 22 entries (7% of Tron decks)
  • 54.3% winrate (57W-48L)
  • Small sample but slightly better performance

No Swamps/Wastes

  • 100 entries (31% of Tron decks)
  • 52.6% winrate (240W-216L)
  • Traditional colorless build

Key Insights:

  1. 2 Swamps shows the highest winrate (54.3%), but with a much smaller sample size (22 entries)
  2. 1 Swamp + 1 Wastes is most popular but performs slightly worse than alternatives
  3. The performance difference is relatively small (2-3 percentage points)
  4. Other configurations (likely including more Swamps/Wastes) show the best performance at 57.7% but represent only 16% of builds

The data suggests that while 1 Swamp + 1 Wastes is the most adopted configuration, running 2 Swamps might offer a slight performance edge, though the sample size is limited.
