Scryfall

~ is a stand-in for the card name. No card will have that text. Try it with just "destroy all creatures".

And, as a feature we added sometime last year, you can run any search you like — for example, creatures in paper with mana value 7 — and then hit the shuffle button to get a random card from that search. (On mobile, it's behind the “View” button.)

Our Momir Vig Vanguard page now has a note reminding you of the URL you might visit to get a random creature card from all of magic.

Oh yeah, you're right. His/her/their/its. Fixed.

One year ago today, we forked MTG Wiki from its previous hosting. We've had a busy year, averaging more than 200 edits per day!

(o:"crew 1" or o:"crew 2" or o:"crew 3") 160 Magic cards found where (the text includes “crew 1” or the text includes “crew 2” or the text includes “crew 3”)

There is not. You'd want to enumerate values, e.g.:
scryfall.com/search?q=%28...

The card named endpoint is meant to get you any matching good print, which sometimes might be digital. If you want print-specific qualities, you follow up by looking at the all prints URI. Alternately, use the search endpoint.

Art cards are just lower priority, and usually take a while to be added.

If it's on our site the data is available. We don't manage other sites nor have control over their data; they pull from us rather than us “pushing” to them.

It sounds like that's a print-sensitive format, where you need the actual common print to appear in a standard-legal set? You'd want to search rarity:common and list the current standard-legal sets — rarity:common set:woe,lci,mkm,otj (etc)

Unironically, search o:commander and filter it down manually.

Not a silly question, but we don't have archival bulk data available.

You can use not:ub to completely filter them out, or prefer:notub to try to find in-universe prints or otherwise still get UB if they're the only cards that match your search (e.g. if there is no in-universe print).

That last one was added recently. Here's some details:
bsky.app/profile/scry...

Presently we only support formats officially endorsed by Wizards of the Coast.

Because the automatic behavior for extras is to try not to include them, so it needs an "always".

It was resolved. It's just happened again today, which we're looking into.

Reprint/firstprint status can take a few hours to be set. These cards probably missed the last automatic pass.

You need to spell the name out in full, or invoke |om1 as the source. We had to use printed text for those cards which currently makes them secondary for lookups.

You can read about that here: scryfall.com/blog/through...

Yes. The dropdown used to have the option listed as "best", but it was confusing naming it that way: best what? (In this case, just Scryfall's default best match, which is the thing we just do all the time.)

We just renamed it a couple days ago; it's now "no preference".

• This affects your searches, and has no relation to viewing set pages.
• If your search specifies a particular prefer: behaviour, it will override this setting.
• This also doesn't apply when viewing unique:prints.

A screenshot showing Scryfall's display preferences. A dropdown with “Default Print Preference: No Preference” is visible. “Override Scryfall’s default print display behavior. When multiple printings are available for a card when performing a search, this determines which printing is shown. It has no effect when viewing all unique prints, or set pages.”

You can now change Scryfall's default for what print is displayed when viewing cards. That's available in your user preferences: scryfall.com/settings/pre...

MTG Wiki MTG Wiki is a wiki focused on coverage of Magic: the Gathering, a trading card game published by Wizards of the Coast. It launched on December 13, 2005. Originally, it was a feature of the community…

Happy anniversary to us! Today, MTG Wiki is 20 years old!

From our start at @mtgsalvation.bsky.social to today, hosted by @scryfall.com, we've been here to serve the community for a long time.

Here's a summary of our work this last year, and some thoughts looking ahead!
reddit.com/r/magicTCG/c...

(c≥0 mv=0 or c≥1 mv=1 or c≥2 mv=2 or c≥3 mv=3 or c≥4 mv=4 or c≥5 mv=5) 5,220 Magic cards found where (the number of colors ≥ 0 and the mana value = 0 or the number of colors ≥ 1 and the mana value = 1 or the number of colors ≥ 2 a…

You need to spell it out the long way, but yes!

scryfall.com/search?q=%28...

mana:/\sc{4}/ 266 Magic cards found where the mana cost matches the regex /\sc{4}/

If you just want raw number of colored mana symbols, you can search with a regex: scryfall.com/search?q=man...

devotion:{b/r}{b/r}{b/r}{b/r} 45 Magic cards found where the card's devotion is greater than or equal to {B/R}{B/R}{B/R}{B/R}

Likewise, this: scryfall.com/search?q=dev...

We've got a devotion operator because devotion is incredibly difficult to search without it.

Compare mana:gggg with devotion:gggg, and you'll see the difference pretty fast!

If we add a chroma operator it'll almost certainly be the same way: for Zemo, you'd be searching chroma:bbb for example.

The intended behaviour of devotion is you write out the color pips you want devotion to. It's very specifically a devotion lookup! It's not number of color pips.

Yes, but devotion and color pip count are two different things!

We have a devotion operator, but it only cares about creatures on the battlefield that will actually give you that devotion. We don't have a Chroma operator (yet).
