Premodern Metagame

We are tracking 765 competitive Premodern decks from the last 14 days of published tournament results. Enchantress is the most-played deck at 8% of the field, ahead of Goblins (7.7%) and Stiflenought (7.3%). The top three decks account for only 23% of the field, so this is an open format — a broad gauntlet rather than a handful of decks to beat.

Archetype shares, deck counts and full decklists from published competitive results, updated as new events are ingested.

Share is a deck's percentage of every Premodern deck we recorded in the window; trend compares it with the previous window of the same length. Full decklists, matchup win rates and card-level breakdowns are in the browser below.

How these numbers are produced

Each deck counted here comes from a published competitive result — Magic Online leagues and challenges, and paper events whose organisers publish standings and lists. We do not sample, weight or estimate: a deck is in the window because a real player registered it in a real event inside the last 14 days.

Decks are grouped by a rules-driven archetype signature that matches on the cards which actually define a deck, rather than on its colours. Lists the rules cannot confidently place go to a human review queue instead of being guessed at, and when we merge or split an archetype we relabel its history so the trend line stays honest.
