Search options (Page 1 of 10)

I'm so close to being able to make a filter for the cards that I need to add to my wishlist for a set.  What I would like to be able to do is:

set = <this set>
collector # <= <last forest>
# of cards in my collection = 0
cards in my collection != foil

Right now it is the 'not foil' that I can't express with the current filters.

I like the new view.  Once I can sort by 'count in inventory' I can see which card I have the most of.  It does help drive home how many different printings there are.

The easiest way to do this is to click on the down arrow icon next to the card name and select 'Split 1 card to new row' and then you can choose the proper card from your inventory.

Wow!  This is a great feature.  It is really interesting to get all of the relevant cards that are used for making this bracket determination.

It seems like it would be nice to turn the name for each category into links that would search for all of the cards in that category (which you could of course filter later as normal).

It would also be nice to add a user-settable field for the commander bracket in case the person disagrees with your suggestion, though keep the suggestion there.

It looks like this year's holiday promo card, "Eggnogger's 'Stache" hasn't made it onto the site yet:

I don't buy trade stock.  I just trade extras that I have from playing in events or that I've picked up over the years.  Over time the decks that I want to play change, and I just trade off of that.  I used to buy lots on Ebay that had some cards that I wanted for sets and then I would trade or sell the rest.  I haven't done that in a long time though, so I don't know how good of an idea that is price-wise these days. 

I figure that if I'm not playing the cards that I'm buying that I'm generally better off buying singles.  This does have the side benefit that when I have cards left over from decks changing, they are generally playable cards that people might want to trade for.

The current incarnation seems like it is including all legendary cards because it is including legendary lands and planeswalkers that don't list that they can be your commander.

The 30th Anniversary promo cards listed are incomplete.  There should be 30 cards in total, but right now there are only 9 listed, and 2 have incorrect numbers.  The full list is here:

The new holiday promo Chaos Wrap is out:

The green column on the far left is how many you have in inventory.  If you just have a single number, that is the total number of that card that you have.  If you have a specific version of a card listed for a deck, then you'll get the X/Y format, where X is the number of copies that match the version information listed, and where Y is the total number of copies you have for that card regardless of the version.  To get the number in all built decks you should look for the column headed by a lego block icon.  You can hover over the icon to get a little more information on how this is calculated.  When you're looking at a specific deck, if you don't have the lego block icon listed, double-check the columns that are shown and make sure that you have "Decks Count" selected.

You also have to make sure under your profile settings that you have unchecked the box that says:

I am sharing cards between built decks

That should do it.  I believe that this box is checked by default.  I know some people share cards between decks, but for me that is the whole purposed of having something marked as a built deck.

Since you're just getting started, I would recommend installing Magic Arena.  It is available for Mac, PC and phones and has a really good introduction on how to play.  The early parts of learning to play are all against a computer opponent, so you can go over the lessons as much as you want until you feel comfortable.

The trading rules here say that it is the sender's job to make sure that the cards get to the recipient in good shape:

But also note that if you use proper packaging (as specified here):

that you aren't responsible if the post office damages the cards along the way.

Did the whole toploader get bent?

In the past I have compensated people for cards damaged in transit as it seems like the right thing to do.  If you were a store (or selling cards here), you would have to make amends for something damaged in transit.  Extending that to trading seems proper, even if that's not what the rules for trading say.
