  1. I think #scryfall has it's negative logic the useless way around: "power!=3" will match all cards that have a power that is not 3. That includes cards with power 3 and 6, and doesn't include any cards without a power. Feels wrong.

    I'm trying to set up a search for all cards where all the numbers (cmc, power, toughness) are prime for a prime themed deck. Having dual faced cards with a non-prime power turn up is annoying.

    Similarly the logic on cmc!=3 is backwards, a card with 2 cmc will match.

  2. Anybody out there know any really good tools for analyzing your own collection of MtG cards? I'm digitizing my collection with Manabox and am wondering if there are any good analytical/browsing tools for local desktop use, i.e. Moxfield but with Scryfall searchability and Cubecobra analysis.

    Failing all else, I'll just code one up myself, but that means my having to learn something about coding a UI. I can make a database sing, but the last experience I had with a UI was putting together an RShiny dashboard.

  4. I made a bit a few months back that posts #magicthegathering cards randomly every hour! Give it a look and follow if you'd like 😬 #scryfall #python #opensource

  5. Alright, so I've been taking a #Python class and I've been learning quite a bit. Tonight, I built a Tkinter GUI application to search the #Scryfall API and display whatever card you're looking for. I'm going to try to build it into an Oracle that can be used during casual play.

    This is EXTREMELY alpha. It will grow.

  6. I just released a bot over at botsin.space. It's called @dailyscry and will post a random Magic: the Gathering card as an image (with alt-text) and text on a daily basis. It will also be posting the same image to a dedicated telegram channel t.me/DailyScry.

    It uses @scryfall API to accomplish this.

    The code can be found at github.com/DerMolly/DailyScry and is written in Rust.

  8. TIL: There is a tag in scryfall tagger that only shows artworks in which someone is screaming. The tag name is ‘aaa’ and the description 'aaaaaahhh!!' and I like this very much.

  10. For budgeting, we use TCGPlayer prices because that's included in data.

    First thing is to narrow down the card pool for our format:
    ```
    f:c cheapest:usd usd>=0.01 usd<=0.50
    ```

    scryfall.com/search?q=f%3Ac+ch

    Broken down:
    - f:c (format commander)
    - cheapest:usd (show the cheapest printing of cards)
    - usd>=0.01 (don't show cards that have no price on tcgplayer)
    - usd<=0.50 (show cards that are less than $0.50)

  12. Some friends and I created a new budget / format and it's been a blast to brew for and play. Here's a quick thread 🧵

    We're calling it "10$.50" (ten-fifty), or similar.

    The format rules are:
    - Deck total budget is $10
    - No single card can be worth more than $0.50
    - Once built, price fluctuations don't matter as long as you don't edit the deck.

    Here's how to use to brew for this format...
