Mutate missing in hubs

TappedOut forum

I think with the Ikoria expansion the mutate mechanic should become its own hub on TappedOut since decks that revolve around it usually don't fit many of the other hubs completely accurately. Maybe Voltron, but that's still a bit of a reach considering many mutate strategies don't always revolve around creating one big beater to win the game with. It'd probably be more useful, especially to those that're specifically looking for mutate strategies, to have a mutate hub to look through.

thinking that maybe we just need to go ahead and push decks to mechanic hubs as they are created, not sure if that would make a deck page too cluttered.

But like--once Ikoria rotates, how much are we going to see Mutate, really? A little in EDH, sure, but I don't think it'll stick around in Vintage, Legacy, Pauper... I just don't see it as needing a hub unless they support it more.

well one note is people won't have to select it manually since we can assign these hubs based on the card data like we do for colors

Last year, I was working on updating the hub lists. I'm working on getting back into that, and catching up what I missed.

Which mechanics would be automatically listed, and what would be the threshold for assigning them?

Its a good question... I think the broad list would just be the keywords, I guess we can also consider activated abilities. A plan of action might be nice because it could get pretty noisy quickly. It may be we just want to include them as an option in the search form for decks, input welcome.

Damn my Fabricate deck would get a hub?

In all seriousness, I could see this working pretty well given some time
