What originality means here, and what is still settling
Every card scores 0 to 1: one minus how close its nearest match anywhere in Magic gets, so 0.30 means something out there is 70% like it. A deck's figure is the average across its most original half of nonland cards, so it climbs by holding cards with less competition, never by holding more cards.
Still settling. A new deck reads as more original than it will look in five years, and that is half real: design space fills up, so a card printed today has had nobody to copy it yet.

What salt means here, and what is still settling
EDHREC's annual survey asks players which cards they least enjoy facing, scoring each 0 to about 3: Stasis is 3.06, Rhystic Study 2.73, Mind Stone a flat 0. A deck's figure is those scores added up, so it gets there either through a few famous offenders or a long tail of mildly irritating ones. The one number here that is an opinion rather than a measurement.
Still settling. A new deck reads milder than it is, and this is the biggest gap on the board. EDHREC's survey runs once a year, so cards printed since the last one have had no chance to be voted on: they average 0.06 salt against 0.29 for everything older. Read a new deck's salt as a floor.

What of cards means here, and what is still settling
The cheapest paper printing of every card, added together: what the hundred cards cost to own as singles, not what the sealed box sells for. That is why one reserved list card can put a deck above four decks of staples. Basic lands count toward the total but are left out of the card list below, since thirty Islands are not what anyone means by a deck's cheapest cards.
Still settling. A new deck's price is the one still moving, and it does not run one way: release hype pushes up, the reprint glut of a freshly opened set pushes down. Today's figure is exactly that, today's.

What median play rate means here, and what is still settling
EDHREC ranks every card by how many Commander decks run it, #1 being the most played in the format. A deck's figure is the median rank across its nonland cards, so #1200 means half this deck sits inside the format's twelve hundred most played cards. A smaller number is the deck built out of staples.
Still settling. A new deck reads as less played than it will be. EDHREC's rank counts how many decks run a card, and that accumulates: precons from the last year average a median of #5216 against #4188 for the rest, mostly the format not having got round to them.

What a card on average means here, and what is still settling
How long ago each card was first printed, averaged across the deck. A reprint does not make an old card new, so a deck published last year and stuffed with reprints still reads old. The total underneath is every card's age added together; the ranking uses the average, because a sum quietly rewards the bigger deck for being bigger.
Still settling. This is the one number a new deck does not distort, because being new is the thing it measures. It still climbs on its own: every figure here is counted from today, so the whole board ages a year every year.

What the figures on each card mean
- Originality
- One minus how close the card's nearest match anywhere in Magic gets, so a card at 0.30 has something out there 70% like it.
- Play rate
- EDHREC's rank for how often the card is played in Commander, where #1 is the most played card in the format.
- Salt
- Out of about 3, from EDHREC's salt survey, where players vote on the cards they least enjoy facing.
- Card age
- How long ago the card was first printed, counted from its earliest printing, so a reprint does not make an old card new.
