Exploring Cube Cobra’s New Winrate Analysis Features

View all cards mentioned in this episode (luckypaper.co/podcast/317-exploring-cube-cobra…)
Andy and Anthony explore Cube Cobra (cubecobra.com)’s new analytic tools for card and deck winrates. The new features allow you to upload decks and their matchup records, or import matchup data if a Cube has been played at an event using Hedron Network (hedron.network/about) to track matches.
After Andy diligently imported hundreds of decks for 100 Ornithopters (cubecobra.com/cube/records/100-ornithopters?vi…), they talk through all the different visualizations and how they might use them as Cube designers.
