Let me pull up the archetype overviews first to confirm names, then grab all three matchups simultaneously!
Interesting — Dredge resolved to Vintage and Belcher has almost no data in Modern. Let me search for Modern-specific versions of both, and simultaneously pull the Broodscale vs Prowess matchup (which we have good data for).
There are several Belcher variants and a Modern Dredge! Let me now get all the matchup data and also check which Belcher variant is most prominent.
Blue Belcher is by far the dominant Belcher variant in Modern right now. Let me grab all remaining matchups plus the Modern Dredge data in parallel.
Here's the full breakdown of Broodscale's matchups over the last ~60 days in Modern:
52.5% WR | 265W – 240L – 11D | 516 matches
A coin-flip matchup with a slight edge for Broodscale. Solid sample size makes this reliable.
Belcher has several variants in the current Modern meta. Blue Belcher is the dominant one by far (130 entries vs. 16 for Boros Belcher):
vs. Blue Belcher — ✅ Favored
56.9% WR | 33W – 25L – 1D | 59 matches
vs. Boros Belcher — ❌ Slightly Unfavored
44.4% WR | 4W – 5L | 9 matches (small sample, treat with caution)
Dredge has essentially zero presence in Modern right now (only 2 entries in the last 2 months). The matchup record is 1-0, which is statistically useless. Dredge appears to be a Vintage archetype in our database — it's not a real part of the Modern meta currently.
