Here is the full breakdown for Pauper Jund Midrange since January 1, 2026 (308 entries across 41+ tournaments):

MAKESHIFT MUNITIONS

Mainboard (copies played):
0 copies: 31 entries β€” 57.2% WR (83W-62L)
1 copy: 277 entries β€” 49.7% WR (592W-598L)
2-4 copies: no entries recorded

Sideboard (copies played):
0 copies: 303 entries β€” 50.6% WR (663W-647L)
1 copy: 4 entries β€” 55.0% WR (11W-9L)
2 copies: 1 entry β€” 20.0% WR (1W-4L)

Takeaway: Makeshift Munitions is a near-universal 1-of in the mainboard (90% of lists run exactly 1), yet the small sample of lists that omit it entirely actually post a better win rate (57.2% vs 49.7%). That gap is worth watching but note the n=31 for the 0-copy bucket is small. Sideboard adoption is very low; the data is too thin to draw conclusions there.

GO FOR THE THROAT

Mainboard (copies played):
0 copies: 299 entries β€” 50.2% WR (648W-643L)
1 copy: 3 entries β€” 50.0% WR (5W-5L)
2 copies: 5 entries β€” 63.3% WR (19W-11L)
4 copies: 1 entry β€” 75.0% WR (3W-1L)

Sideboard (copies played):
0 copies: 250 entries β€” 51.0% WR (563W-542L)
1 copy: 22 entries β€” 45.2% WR (42W-51L)
2 copies: 36 entries β€” 51.1% WR (70W-67L)

Takeaway: Go for the Throat is largely absent from Jund Mid mainboards β€” only 9 of 308 entries ran any copies. The higher win rates for 2 and 4 copies (63.3% / 75%) are tantalizing but the sample sizes are tiny (5 and 1 entries respectively) so treat them as anecdotal. In the sideboard, 58 entries include 1-2 copies, with 2 copies matching the 0-copy baseline at ~51% and 1 copy dipping to 45.2%.

Overall, neither card shows a statistically robust positive correlation with improved win rates in this dataset. Munitions is a maindeck staple but not clearly pulling its weight; Go for the Throat is a fringe sideboard option. Both warrant further investigation at larger sample sizes.
