How game plans are classified

A tunable heuristic reads each deck’s mana curve, unit/spell mix, and card-text keywords (removal, draw, channel/ramp), then assigns the first plan that fits — in order Aggro → Ramp → Control, otherwise Midrange:

Aggro/Tempo — low curve (avg cost ≲ 2.7), mostly units, many 1–2-cost units; pressures early.
Ramp/Hold — several channel/ramp effects with a higher curve (avg ≳ 3.2); accelerates to bigger, later plays.
Control — higher curve (avg ≳ 3) with lots of removal + card draw and few cheap units; grinds the game out.
Midrange — balanced curve and unit/spell mix; the default when no other plan fits.
