Four Color (Non-white) card breakdown - 5 decks, 1.89% of meta

Creatures

3 This will reduce the cost of spells all on it's own, but it's the kind of effect that has diminishing returns the longer the game goes on. -0 1x in 20%

3 If you can't get a second copy of this, it's not very good. It will maybe be buffing one other thing if you're lucky, and be way below rate. However, getting two copies of it seems pretty doable -- keep in mind it counts your opponent's spells too! 4.7 1x in 20%

2.5 This is a solid defensive creature that helps filter your mana, and those two things go together pretty well. -0 1x in 20%

3.5 Drawing cards with this is very doable, and it has a good stat-line too. Basically it can get in early, and in the late game it turns into a value engine. 3.9 1x in 20%

2.5 This fixes mana well, and it can trade for anything once it's outlived it's usefulness. 2.9 1x in 20%

2.5 This has the worst stat-line of all the devotees, but it's fixing you have access to even when you mill it. 2.3 1x in 20%

5 Just the dragon side is a 4.5-level card. It adds a huge scary body to the board and subtracts from the opponent's board in a big way -- but throw in the fact that you can cast this earlier in the game to draw some cards and it's even more amazing. 5 1x in 20%

4 This will shift the board in a big way every time you cast it. At worst it's a 6/7 flyer, and most of the time you don't have to put all of your eggs in one basket. 3.7 1x in 20%

3.5 The Omen here is a good removal spell, so it's nice it can sometimes be a dragon + Naturalize. 4.4 1x in 40%

4 This is going to feel like a better Snapcaster Mage in many situations since it can help you cast the things it gives Harmonize too. Sometimes it won't have anything in the graveyard to target, though. -0 1x in 40%

2 This has an okay baseline, and occasionally it'll turn into Naturalize. 1.2 1x in 40%

2.5 I don't love that this asks for two separate card types to be in your graveyard for it to do anything, but it's true that when it can get something back it'll feel pretty powerful. 3.3 1x in 40%

3 This creature is mostly all stats, but having hexproof until it damages something is nice and means that it can usually get in for a hit before they can kill it. Just don't block a mobilize token with it. 4 1x in 60%

4 This is an absurd common. A three mana 2/1 that just draws you a card would be a very good Common -- but this is way better, because it gives you selection and loads your graveyard. 3.1 1x in 60%
Instant, Sorcery

3.5 It's not the most efficient removal ever, but adding a lightning helix to the mix goes a long way towards making this card worth the mana. 5 1x in 20%

3 This is a nce removal spell for Green, and the counter has extra value in this format. 3.9 1x in 20%

2.5 Spending three mana and not adding to the board is a little scary, but this gives you ramp and fixing in a format where that looks like what you want to be doing -- and it can ultimately generate a 2-for-1. 1.3 1x in 20%

3 This is a super annoying trick that blanks removal super efficiently while leaving behind a very real buff, and it can even do the job in combat. 2.3 1x in 20%

2.5 This gives you a 2-for-1 in the long run, and it's a cheap draw spell to help you get Flurry going. 1.7 1x in 20%

2.5 Casting this for 5 is pretty rough, but I think you'll be able to spend 3 often enough for it to be a soli draw spell. 2 1x in 20%

3 Costing more against Dragons is a very real downside in this set, but it does a decent job against everything else. 3.7 1x in 20%

3 We see this card all the time without the counter mode, and it's always at least a 2.5, and often better. So, throw in the fact that this can be bad Negate in a pinch, and this looks like a quality card. 1.2 1x in 20%

2 5 mana for 5 damage is pretty bad. It's just hard to feel good about spending that much mana to remove most creatures, but the exile clause is nice, and if you can spend the three mana it gives you on something you'll feel pretty good. Most of the time, you won't be able to make use of the mana though. 2.7 1x in 20%

4 This is a very powerful 2-for-1, and while it isn't always going to be online, it won't be too difficult to get it there either. 3.3 1x in 20%

3.5 This will allow you to remove a creature in most situations and then smash in with a huge augmented creature. 2.9 1x in 20%

1.5 Three mana for a discard spell (even one that exiles) is just too much for most formats. It only adds minimally to the board. 1.4 1x in 20%

2 Plummet or a medium trick is what you get here, and if you're in the market for either of those, it's not bad. 0.7 1x in 20%

4 Even if this was Sorcery-speed 100% of the time it'd be a very good card. Two mana for 4 damage is a great rate and you can trade up, sometimes in a big way. So, the fact that this'll be an instant a significant chunk of the time is amazing. 4.3 1x in 60%
Enchantment, Artifact

0 Even in this format, I dont' think you're getting there with this. The mana is tough and so is the set up. 1.8 1x in 20%

2.9 1x in 20%

1.5 This type of removal is rarely good because it doesn't deliver a card worth of value. After all, what you put it on can still block -- and if it had high toughness, that's going to feel particularly brutal. 2.9 1x in 20%

1.5 // 3.5 This is an almost adequate mana rock, and the token it makes it the late game is pretty amazing. If you don't have amazing mana, it's not very good -- but if you can use the activated ability, you'll be pretty happy with this. 2.9 1x in 20%

1 It takes an unusual format for a three mana mana rock that doesn't add to the board to be worth it, and I don't think this is that kind of format. 3.6 1x in 20%

3 This is great at fixing your mana early and then can give you a real presence on board late. The Monuments all give you nice 2-for-1s, and I think that makes up for them not adding to the board on turn two. 3.2 1x in 20%

4 The equipment without Flurry is kind of passable, and with it, it's amazing. Just one token will feel like you're getting a steal, and more than that will feel amazing. 4.8 1x in 20%

3 This is great at fixing your mana early and then can give you a real presence on board late. The Monuments all give you nice 2-for-1s, and I think that makes up for them not adding to the board on turn two. 2.8 1x in 20%

3 Casting this only once feels fine, and it won't be unusual to get to cast it again later in the game. 4.1 1x in 20%

5 5 mana for two 5/5s is nuts, and chapter III will just end the game in most situations. Even if you just have those two elephants, that turn is going to be scary for your opponent -- and you'll usuall have more. 4.4 1x in 20%

4 Most of the value here comes from the first chapter, but it's pretty sweet you get a bunch of extra stuff after casting a good removal spell. -0 1x in 20%

2.5 This has a pretty solid base effect, and recasting it even once is going to feel like you're doing something sweet. 2.3 1x in 40%

2.5 The baseline here is sort of acceptable, and I think in most games you'll get to cast it a second time. 4.1 1x in 40%

2.5 Fixing is important in this format, and ramp looks real enough in Green for this to be solid. 2.9 1x in 40%
Planeswalkers

5 He comes down, exiles your opponent's best permanent and then stats drawing you cards and gaining you life. His loyalty is massive, so taking him down is not easy, and the card advantage he grants is absurd. 5 1x in 20%

4 Whether you drain your opponent's life and make them discard, or kill one of their creatures and gain 2, the investment here is very much worth it since it's a 2-for1. 4.3 1x in 20%

4 This has great stats and the format has enough non-basic lands for the trigger to be relevant when you play it on turn 4. It does have diminishing returns the later the game gets, though. 4.6 1x in 20%

4 This is going to feel like a better Snapcaster Mage in many situations since it can help you cast the things it gives Harmonize too. Sometimes it won't have anything in the graveyard to target, though. -0 1x in 40%

5 Even if you only ever got a three mana 2/3 with Flying and lifelink, this would be a 3.5, but you're going to be able to get two copies often enough for this to be a bomb. 5 1x in 20%

5 You'll virtually always have a spell to cast with this, which gives you a 2-for-1 up front -- and will trigger everythign with Flurry. And after that you have a huge dragon. 4.7 1x in 20%

5 Even if this was always a dragon it'd be pretty good, since it's efficient and your opponent can't remove it without getting 2-for-1'd, but throw in the fact that this can be a sweeper when that's what you need, and this looks excellent. -0 1x in 20%

5 This will end the game in a few turns if you can't deal with it. Not only does it grow, it also makes all of your creature spells way better. 4.8 1x in 20%
