Frequently asked questions

In the average Ragnar deck (the 99 most-included cards per EDHREC, with 37 lands), simulated 4,000 times, the commander comes down on turn 3.1 on average and is on the battlefield before turn 7 in 99 % of games. It misses at least one land drop in the first six turns 16 % of the time and floods 17 %. Deck health: C+ (64/100).

Real Ragnar decks run 37 lands on average. That is a starting point, not a rule: a lower curve can shave one or two, big-mana builds want more. The EDH Optimizer simulator tells you, over 10,000 games, how often you get mana screwed or flooded with your exact count.
