Mulligan Strategy

The hands this deck keeps are defined by whether they do something on turn one and whether they can cast two spells on turn two.

Keep

• Two lands, a one-mana threat, and any cantrip.
• Two lands, a Cutter, and a free spell to trigger it on turn two.
• Three lands with two threats, on the play or the draw.

Ship

• One land, whatever else it holds. Eighteen lands does not support a one-land keep.
• Four or more lands with one threat.
• A hand whose only action is a two-drop and no way to reach a second spell.

The relevant figures on the exact sixty, before any mulligan: two or more lands in 68.6% of sevens, at least one one-mana threat in 65.4%, and both together in 41.6%. A Cutter appears in 39.9%.
