How many lands, ramp and draw do Rakdos, the Muscle decks run?
We counted 12 public Rakdos, the Muscle decks on Moxfield, using the same code EDHTuner runs on your deck. The decks were collected in July 2026. That is a small count, so a median here can sit a card or two away from what a bigger count would show.
Compared with all decks, Rakdos, the Muscle decks run fewer lands (23.5 against 34) and less card advantage (3.5 against 9).
The first number in each row is the median for these decks, and the range after it covers the middle half of them. The last column is the median across all 10,794 decks we counted.
