Arena Post Theros Gameplay Stats

I finished up my last day of Theros Beyond Death with a good morning run of several wins to a few losses. This is typical for my daily gold farming grind.

I was not super excited about this set, but then again I am not really into Greek mythology. Some of the mechanics were cool, such as devotion and all of the extra enchantments that came along.

Anax was the only card I played out of this set on a daily basis. I migrated from Cavalcade from Throne of Eldraine over to the current RDW build for Theros. I did build some janky stuff and had some fun with other Theros cards, but nothing competitive like RDW was for me.

This is the third full set that I have tracked complete stats for, having tracked Eldraine Stats as well as M20 stats.

Lets just jump right into the info!

All stats started on 1/16/20 and ended on 4/15/20. This equals a total of 91 days of gameplay.

There may be a few discrepancies here and there, as sometimes I forgot to tally a mulligan or who conceded, or who went first, etc. It's close enough though. Don't look too harshly at this, it's still a lot of data that was collected. There's bound to be tiny errors here and there.

Total Gameplay Stats

These stats are from all types of gameplay, including daily gold farming in the play queue, ranked draft, events, ranked BO1, and just play testing decks for fun in the play queue.

• Total Games Played: 866 (9.5 games per day)
• Win-Loss: 456-410, 53% win rate
• Total mulligans: 170 (1.8 per day)
• Play-Draw: 442-420, 51% I went first
• I conceded: 339
• Opponent conceded: 312
• Total time played= 3,305 minutes  (55.08 hours)
• Time played per day = 36.32 minutes
• Average time per game = 3.82 minutes

A change for the new spreadsheet will be to track seconds. Time was rounded up or down to the nearest minute for the tracking of this set, so I feel a lot of time was not accounted for.

Daily Gold Farming and Individual Daily Deck Stats

My daily routine was to win a minimum of 4 games per day in the play queue, and complete a daily quest if able. I played more on occasion, but usually 30-60 mins a day was enough for me if I already met my daily minimums.

These stats are only for games played in the play queue during my daily farming routine.

Cavalcade 3.0

• Deck played: Cavalcade 3.0 (1/16/20 - 2/2/20)
• Total games : 131

I did play several days with a RDW variant with some other less used cards, and while I think it had good bones to it, it just wasn't as strong as the current RDW T1 meta deck.

Ranked BO1

• Deck Used: RDW (THB)
• Total games: 84
• Time played: 337 minutes (5.62 hours)
• Win-Loss: 44-40, 52% win rate
• Play-Draw: 36-48, 43% I went first
• Me-Opponent conceded: 32-25
• Mulligans: 26
• Highest rank: Gold 4.3

Gold

• Daily rewards: 51,800 (569.2 per day)
• Daily quests: 55,500 (609.9 per day)
• Other gold rewards (events, etc): 6,500
• Gold spent on drafts: 105,000
• Gold spent on cosmetics: 15,750
  • Nyx lands, Nissa Jap Alt Art Sleeves, 1-2 cosmetic cards that were 80-90% off
• Total gold spent: 120,750

ICRs

• Mastery pass ICRs: 32
• Total ICRs: 89
• ICRs Kept-Vaulted: 52-37

Ranked Draft

I only do ranked draft for the cards, gems and booster packs. I really don't enjoy the format on Arena, and really only have fun drafting with a group of friends. For Arena, I do what I call collection drafting. You can more about that my article for Arena Collection Drafting.

• Drafts completed: 21
• Cards opened: 882 (42 cards x 21 drafts)
• Cards Kept-Vaulted: 758-124

Booster Packs

Disclaimer/Discrepancy:
While I attempted to kept meticulous track of each booster pack I opened, I appear to have a discrepancy somewhere. I have record of opening 97 packs on my pack opening spreadsheet. I show that I obtained 100 packs on my daily stats spreadsheet. I don't have 4 of the non-THB mastery packs that I show opened on the pack opening spreadsheet, which would give myself a total of 101. I'll have to be more careful on IKO when tracking all of this. So, here is what I do have.

• Free packs: 80-81 (discrepancy) (codes, set mastery rewards, ranked draft rewards)
• Mastery pass packs: 20
• Pack cards opened: 808
• Pack cards Kept-Vaulted: 167-705

Cards

• Total cards earned from all sources: 1,779
• Total cards Kept-Vaulted: 997-866
• Total vault progress: 127.8

Wild Cards

• Wild Cards: Total / Pack / Wheel / Used
• Common: 29 / 29 / 0 / -3
• Uncommon: 37 / 22 / 15 / -1
• Rare:  19 / 5 / 14 / -11
• Mythic: 7 / 4 / 3 / -6
• Total: 92 / 60 / 32 / -21

Wild Card Rates

This data is for the 97 total booster packs that I tracked opening.

• Wheel / Pack / Combined
• Common: 0 / 28 / 28
• Uncommon: 16 / 19 / 35
• Rare: 13 / 4 / 17
• Mythic: 3 / 4 / 7

In Conclusion

I've made some drastic changes to my tracking spreadsheets over the past 3 iterations and have honed it down to something I think works very well for the data that I am tracking. I only made a few tiny tweaks to it and I am ready to start tracking data for Ikoria!

I hope everyone enjoyed their journey back through the plane of Theros are are ready to see what's next as we travel to Ikoria!
