Unless you’re looking to get hyper-competitive, which you certainly could do, this version has everything you’d want from the physical card game with all the benefits of being online. Even so, the quality of life improvements in Arena make it an easy pick for us. On the flip side, you can only trade cards in Online, and there are fewer rule sets you can play, those being Standard, Limited, and Historic. Arena is obviously a more modern version of the game, with a much more updated user interface, satisfying animations, streamlined systems, and even cheaper cards. Both versions are still played today, but for different reasons. Magic: The Gathering Arena is the second online version of the card game released in 2018 after Magic: The Gathering Online came out way back in 2002. While simple on the surface, the depth comes from the cards themselves and how they interact with each other. Each player has their own deck, health pool, and simply needs to drain their opponent’s health down to 0. The concept of placing land cards for mana, which you use to summon your monsters and cast spells, was so influential that it has basically become the standard for most card games that followed. The card game Magic has been around for decades now, with hundreds of cards across dozens of expansions, and yet the base formula remains as accessible as ever. Where else could we start but with the most popular and well-known deck-building game ever created.

Guildgates weren't fixable because Decked Builder doesn't use collector number in the CSV file so there was no way to disambiguate them, except in the name (which Decked BUilder did with the (a) and (b)). I just copied the DeckBot CSV names over to my import CSV. were using the right ASCII characters for TM, (R) and &. Sword of Dungeons & Dragons and Ultimate Nightmare. Unglued/Unhinged errors were in the placement of the " marks.
DECKED BUILDER WINDOWS TUTORIAL UPDATE
I'll update this post when I get it finished. My plan is to create a temporary inventory of all these unmatched cards, export them to CSV, look at what makes them different from my current CSV file, make the edits and re-import the file. Mana Crypt Vintage Masters <- DeckBox database doesn't offer this one, but the card does exist: eid=383005 The Ultimate Nightmare of Wizards of the Coast(R) Customer Service Unglued Decked Builder has "Boros Guildgate (a)" and "Boros Guildgate (b)", and so forth for Izzet, Dimir and Golgari guildgates. The remaining cards that didn't match seem to be version based or very unusual (Unhinged, Unstable). Changing "Commander Anthology 2018" to "Commander Anthology Volume II" worked great, thanks!
