Contradiction radar

3 things to know before you compare this page with another tracker.

Population: our rates count ranked 1v1 battles of top Path of Legends players only; Trophy Road, challenges and other modes are not measured.
Archetype names: “Sparky Beatdown” is community vocabulary — here a deck is filed by its cards alone, so another site may group the same lists differently.
Thin matchups: 3 matchup rows are under 300 decided games, so no win rate is shown.
