How the tiers are drawn
A card's share is how many of the top-placing decks in the last 90 days ran it, weighted toward bigger events, better finishes and newer results; the trend is that share against the month before. Basic lands and energy are left out.
- Tier S
- In most top decks (40%+)
- Tier A
- Core of top decks (20–40%)
- Tier B
- Played in established decks (8–20%)
- Tier C
- Tech or second-tier decks (3–8%)
- Tier D
- Fringe placements (0.5–3%)
- Tier F
- Seen, but rarely (under 0.5%)
