Someone in the PDC pauper forums is doing exactly what I'm trying to do, but with more time. They're storing the results of various matchups and gathering the win percentages to get an idea of what decks actually have a better matchup against other decks. I'm surprised nobody else has done this and if they have please, please point me to where their results are. Here is the link to the one in PDC Pauper: forums.pdcmagic.com/viewtopic.php?t=5926Its impressive to see how incredibly even most matchups are and how most decks are close to 50% win ratio overall. Of course the sample size is very small so its not the most trustworthy analysis for now. For example, I'm very surprised that WW supposedly won more against UR post.

I'd like to get an idea of what the Tier 1 and 2 matchups are like in the current metagame.
Here is a table that shows how good a match-up is for each tier 1 and 2 decks in the current metagame (based on experience, theory and the study from Pauper Palace mentioned in the first post of this thread).
Please leave comments indicating if you disagree on some of these evaluations and what it should actually be. I think it should be possible to get a good idea of how this table should be filled up if we all put our experience into it.
Even 45%-55% (+/- to show a possible edge) Good 55%-65% Awsome (Awsm) > 65% Bad 35%-45% Terrible (Trbl) < 35%
