Flashfires Performance (Last 30 Days)

Flashfires has seen very limited play in Modern over the last 30 days, appearing in only 23 sideboards total across 6 different archetypes.

Key Findings:

Most Popular Home: Affinity

  • 17 decks played Flashfires (19 total copies)
  • 50.1% winrate with the card in sideboard
  • 64-46-1 match record across those entries

Other Archetypes:

  • Izzet Wizards (2 decks): 62.5% winrate
  • Grixis Frog (1 deck): 25.0% winrate
  • Izzet Cutter (1 deck): 33.3% winrate
  • Jund Midrange (1 deck): 0.0% winrate (0-1)
  • Mono Red Aggro (1 deck): 0.0% winrate (0-1)

Analysis:

Flashfires is a niche sideboard card primarily used by Affinity as targeted hate against Plains-heavy decks (likely targeting Jeskai Control, Azorius Control, and similar white-based strategies). The 50% winrate suggests it's performing neutrally in the current meta, neither overperforming nor underperforming significantly.
