Decked Builder

This is an application that is highly recommended for anyone who is willing to spend money on a Magic the Gathering (MtG) app. The creator of the app, Michael Evans, is someone who usually prefers free alternatives over paid apps, but even he is happy to have spent money on this particular app. It has a wide range of impressive features, runs smoothly, and even offers RSS feeds for top MtG sites.

According to Jaden from appaddict.net, Decked Builder is the ultimate MtG accessory app. It is capable of fulfilling almost any need that a player may have. Eugene Lee, author of Wagic, praises the iPad version of the app, stating that it is perfect and has improved solitaire play and card loading speed. Josh Elliot from eyeofthevortex.com also highly recommends this app to any MtG player.

The app boasts a variety of features, including the ability to search for cards instantly without an internet connection, as the database is stored locally. Users can search for cards by expansion, rarity, color, type, or cost. It also has built-in support for various tournament formats, such as Standard, Modern, Extended, EDH, and Classic. Users can choose to see only distinct cards or find every printing of a card in every set. The app also has a full card text search feature, making it easy to find specific cards based on attributes like Landfall, Elf, or Vampire.

Decked Builder also allows users to build multiple deck listings and sideboards. They can test sample draws from their deck and simulate a game of Magic by playing cards to the battlefield. The app provides statistics on the deck, including mana curves, color symbol counts, and card type percentages. Users can also email their decks to friends and use the full text search feature to build EDH 100 card singleton decks. The app also offers sorting and filtering options for decks based on mana cost, color, card type, tournament legality, and more.

In addition to these features, Decked Builder also allows users to price and buy their decks. It has multiple price feeds from popular card suppliers like TCGplayer.com, CoolStuffInc.com, CardShark.com, and MTGOTraders.com. Users can easily find the cheapest way to put their deck together and price their entire deck with just one tap. They can also buy their entire deck online or just the cards that are missing from their collection.

The app also offers the ability to research decks through specially formatted RSS feeds from various sources like TCGplayer.com, DraftMagic.com, MTGCast, PureMTGO.com, Channel Fireball, Power 9 Pro, GatheringMagic.com, and StarCityGames. Card names are automatically highlighted for instant card lookups from the built-in database, and users can also integrate with mtgo-stats.com to download, analyze, and test the latest winning decks directly on their device.

For an additional in-app purchase, users can also track their collection with Decked Builder. They can easily input their collection by any criteria and find missing cards to complete their collection or deck. The app also allows users to value their collection and keep it in sync across their Mac, iPad, and iPhone through iCloud synchronization.

Lastly, Decked Builder features high-definition card art scans that display beautifully on Retina Display. It fully supports Innistrad day/night cards, Kamigawa flip cards, and split cards. It also works perfectly offline, making it a convenient and reliable tool for MtG players.
