Amulet Titan — Best Overall Pick

MatchupWRMatches
vs Boros Energy57.2%208

Combined Avg~54.6%

Great at beating Energy decks but struggles badly against Affinity. Affinity's artifact synergies line up poorly for the Yawgmoth gameplan.


Jeskai Blink — Favored vs Energy, Loses to Affinity

MatchupWRMatches
vs Boros Energy55.0%347
vs Affinity❌ 47.8%157

Large sample, meaningful edge over Boros Energy, but Affinity is a negative matchup.


Avoid: Living End, Blue Belcher, Tron for this goal

  • Blue Belcher: 55% vs Boros, but only 31.3% vs Affinity — terrible
  • Living End: Negative vs both (47.5% / 30.2%)
  • Tron: Negative vs Boros Energy (44.4%), roughly even vs Affinity (47.6%)
