Playtester Updates

Site Updates forum

A few new things were added to the playtester.


You can now tutor for cards from the sideboard using the tutor sideboard dropdown list located underneath the standard tutor dropdown list.

You can now create tokens of cards in the sideboard.

You can now create a copy token of any card by going into the popup menu for that card and pressing the "copy button". Doing so will automatically add in "token copy" to that copy's notes. This copy functions just like any token does, so they disappear if you try and change their zones.

Notes will now overlay text onto the card image when you type into it. The overlay text will persist across all zones until you change what's in the notes.

Tokens appear alphabetically in the create token list, and most have been given user friendly names to prevent any confusion of which one is which.

Thanks for all the updates. Since this is a relevant thread, may I ask for one to be considered for the future?

When we make custom tokens, the token is a blank grey image with the appropriate name, P/T and quantity. That's great and all, but it'd be nice to be able to put in a color identity.

Yes, we could have "Green Beast" or "Red Goblin" as the name, but a visual cue - such as the grey color being changed to green or red instead - would really be nice.

It would be kinda nice to get a slightly newer look for the site. It's a bit dated.

Tutoring for the sideboard! Have been waiting like 10 years for that, or however long I've been on this amazing site. I didn't even think it would be possible, and here you go making this whole place even better!

Certainly not me who did these changes, you should thank the devs, I only thought up some of these changes and gave the tokens user friendly names (and made this update post to let you know they exist). The devs did all the hard work.

Femme_Fatale, all these years I actually thought you were one of the behind-the-scenes devs?

One thing I wish ya'll would add eventually to the playtest is a dropdown to add mana similarly to how you have one for poison and energy.
Would make playtesting some decks easier as I try and make the energy and poison ones work for counting my mana but they aren't perfect.

Hey I'm not sure if anyone is aware, but in playtester V1, the commander starts off in the deck and not in a command zone so that really throws everything off. Sorry if that's a known issue already!

TypicalTimmy: I just do simple data input and photoshop (usually post my before and afters on my twitter when I have time to do them). I am an amateur in design but my familiarity with the site picks up where I lack in experience. So I just contribute to feature ideas.

Is anybody monitoring this site anymore? All the posts are ancient.

My question is this - why is the neon dynasty draft module so messed up?

It lists the flip side of the sagas as a card choice - I have not seen a single dragon or the praetor or planeswalker in any draft and I am on here constantly. I have been a member for years and the neon draft is the buggiest I have ever seen.

Do you need help?

thanks

megaladon13: We are monitoring it, we just can't really know if something is broken unless someone makes a report in the tappedout forum.

Thanks. This should have been fixed before the release so the original creators are gone eh? Who is running the show now as you seem to be the only active monitor...

Should I post the list of cards that are not loading? Example the only dual land loading is the white blue, no dragons like Ao, Atsushi, etc., are loading, no special art lands are loading, the enchantment spirit sisters call is not loading. I mean the list is large.

Thank you - looks like it has been fixed!

good morning after generating multiple solo drafts, I have found that the only life lands showing is the white blue one - tranquil cove. not seeing any of the special art basic lands either. I am curious as to how you generate the cards ratios. Does WOTC give you the percentages relating to how often cards appear in packs??

best regards - thanks
