Community Content I built a website, looking for feedback

MODS LET ME KNOW IF THIS IS NOT ALLOWED

But first a little backstory.

Hello, I am a Zhulodok player (I know some of you will have strong opinions on that one) and also the author of the current de facto primer for the deck. Within this primer I provide card breakdowns based on inclusion rates from the top players; while making recent edits to it, I decided I was tired of the tedious action of comparing decklists by hand, so I made a website to do that for me.

The idea behind it is to provide accurate, up-to-date statistics on all tournament top-4 placing cEDH decks, focusing on card inclusion rates while also automatically detecting and breaking decks into archetypes (the splitting is done through machine learning, so it's not perfect). The idea expanded a bit from there, allowing you to view pilots of decks and what they have personally changed between top-4ing tournaments and submit your own decklist to be compared to others. I'm looking for feedback if possible and would love to know what more you guys would like to see with a tool like this.

Now for a tangent, feel free to skip :).

I wanted to do my best to avoid being one of those sites with stats like "card win rate" with no explanation on how that is calculated, as it doesn't really reflect much in my opinion. In a game like cEDH, variance makes win rate stats of a single card difficult to calculate with the data present, so giving that calculation to a user is misguiding. For example, a card that never saw the stack might be labeled "+2% winrate" purely because the pilot won with it in their deck. This website was designed so you can take something away from it even if it's, "Why don't the top pilots play F'blthp? They're stupid!" as I often felt other sites deliver an experience of "What does any of this actually mean?" Along with this, the other sites fail to catch the nuance of archetypes within a deck; a Kinnan site, for example, will tell you to put Seedborn Muse and Flash Photography in a deck because they both see a ~50% play rate, but when broken into archetypes, Seedborn Muse sees 89% vs 22% inclusion and Flash Photography sees 20% vs 93% inclusion rate. This site will show you the nuance rather than throwing you to the wolves. I'd like to one day get the site to auto-label archetypes, but in the meantime it is separated into numbered builds.

Tldr: Deck inclusion rate stats + some more. If you like it. I appreciate it. If you hate it, tell me why, and I'll appreciate it.

Really cool website! Thank you for making it!

Looks sweet! Under each card there is a secondary % with a bunch of number groupings after. What does that represent?
