MTG Stats!

So recently a website called Kavu.ru has put up a program that you can use to generate your lifetime stats for sanctioned play at MTG and I thought it would be fun to break mine down some.

Overall Stats:

Overall record: 993-539-62

Win percentage ignoring draws: 64.817232
Win percentage including draws: 62.296110

A nearly 65% is pretty solid. I'm a little sad that I haven't gotten 1000 match wins yet. I might have to keep track of the next event I play in so that I can know when match 1000 is.

Booster Draft:

Overall record: 461-235-17

Win percentage ignoring draws: 66.235632
Win percentage including draws: 64.656381

Hey, I'm slightly stronger in booster draft that I am overall. That's a bit of a surprise as I've never considered myself much of a limited player. Of course part of this is mitigated by most of my drafts being played at the local FNM level. The competition isn't as fierce as GPs or PTQs. But these are just raw numbers, not the whole story.

Modern:

Overall record: 25-16-2

Win percentage ignoring draws: 60.975610

Win percentage including draws: 58.139535

Well this is disappointing. I really enjoy Modern as a format. I think that part of this is because I rarely play any of the tier one decks in older formats, preferring to rock cards that I love over the pure strongest strategy. Lets see if I can't get this stat up some if I get to go to GP Detroit next month.

Casual - Limited:

Overall record: 5-4-0

Win percentage ignoring draws: 55.555556

Win percentage including draws: 55.555556

I have no idea what this was. At all. Nothing to see here folks, move on...

Casual - Magic League:

Overall record: 6-1-1

Win percentage ignoring draws: 85.714286

Win percentage including draws: 75.000000

When was I in a Magic League? I guess I did pretty well in it.

Legacy:

Overall record: 28-23-1

Win percentage ignoring draws: 54.901961

Win percentage including draws: 53.846154

This is even more disappointing than Modern. I don't remember ever really tanking out of a bunch of Legacy Tournaments. In fact one of my Day Two appearances at a GP was in Legacy. Maybe events I played in were sanctioned as Legacy as a catchall and I sucked at them? I dunno man.

Extended:

Overall record: 33-13-8

Win percentage ignoring draws: 71.739130

Win percentage including draws: 61.111111

I was clearly the end boss of Extended when it was a format. Thank you Scepter Chant. Thank you Chase Rare Control.

2 HG Sealed:

Overall record: 4-1-0

Win percentage ignoring draws: 80.000000

Win percentage including draws: 80.000000

I remember this one! That was a Pre-Release back when they still did big events for them instead of in store. We lost round one to mana screw then wrecked the rest of the day. As a side note my buddy Pete was in that event with a random partner, got at least two unintentional draws and still made prize.

Trios - Constructed:

Overall record: 0-3-0

Win percentage ignoring draws: 0.000000

Win percentage including draws: 0.000000

I remember this one too. That day was terrible.

Standard:

Overall record: 247-136-14

Win percentage ignoring draws: 64.490862

Win percentage including draws: 62.216625

The main event. Standard. over 64%, but like draft I think that a lot of that is down to mainly playing locally. I've never made top 8 of a PTQ in standard.

Sealed:

Overall record: 179-100-16

Win percentage ignoring draws: 64.157706

Win percentage including draws: 60.677966

I only play sealed when I have to so this is 100% made up of PTQs, GPs and Pre-Releases. Hoenstly, I'm glad that the release event is gone because its one less time I have to play sealed.

Block Constructed:

Overall record: 4-5-3

Win percentage ignoring draws: 44.444444

Win percentage including draws: 33.333333

I hated Block Constructed back when it was regularly ran as a PTQ season. Hated it. My record shows it too.

Trios - Limited:

Overall record: 1-2-0

Win percentage ignoring draws: 33.333333

Win percentage including draws: 33.333333

I think that this was a PTQ in Columbus... which makes me wonder where my GP Pittsburgh event is. It was team sealed and I remember doing fairly well, even with one teammate passing out after every round. Maybe I've got another DCI number out there that I need to get merged.

So what did I learn from this? Not much actually, but I do think its sweet that we can check this now. Especially since the ELO rating is gone. Lifetime win percentage seems like a good way to rank players. Or possibly seasonal win percentage. But right now players can only check their own stats so whoever compiled that would be unable to update the data themselves. Sounds like a mess
