Been meaning to do this so I did it.

Lurrus Doomsday has been separated out of the Doomsday data.

The most fake data of all time because its almost all from #1 ELO player Tsubasa_Cat's results but it will help with clarity

Love seeing that the consensus opinion for Vintage right now is that there are around 13 good decks and a handful more playable ones.

Next time the balance needs to be @calebdmtg.bsky.social vs like 6 other players

Justin 'IamActuallyLvL1' Gennari @iamactuallylvl1.bsky.social · 6d

please consider this a work in progress as I learn about the systems application and tweak it accordingly

Vintage MTGO Metagame Dashboard

A first attempt at elo has been added the Vintage MTGO Metagame Dashboard. Data GOAT Cuikui cooked this up for us today. Still playing around with the parameters. Utilizing the mtgeloproject approach of 200-point rating difference corresponds to a 60% win expectancy.

Grossed out by a few comments recently so I feel the need to reiterate this.

My stream and content is not safe space for you to spew hatred. You will respect others or you will be banned.

4-2. Definitely had Top 8 potential with better play. Deck still feels great not sure why its doing so poorly online. Likely EW choice tho I am sure that is no surprise to anyone.
