This video sounds like one of those "Just follow this one weird trick" advertisements in the beginning. Lol
"Scryfall skimmers love this one SURPRISING HACK!"
It's good tho. Today I learned that scryfall has a hidden mechanic.
“You are using this WRONG!!!!!1one”

Scryfall tagger is such a helpful project. Make sure you sign up for it to start contributing!
huh, i've been using scryfall the exact same way in the past, just oracle texts etc. but "otag" seems really neat!
It's nice but you need to be aware those tags are applied by the community, so you have stuff slipping through at times. For example "Keep Safe" was not tagged as a counterspell until like a month or so ago.
Thanks for the explanations. When building a deck I usually go for:
F:edh (legality)
Id:mardu (color identity)
Order:edhrec (sort)
Function: (removal/ramp/draw/etc)
T: (type)
O: (for more specific searches such as (o:flash or t:instant))
But I did not know how to find new functions/otags, so that was really helpful, thanks.
TLDR: Use the scryfall tag system as outlined at 11:50
8:35 IMPORTANT it's colon, not semi colon

@@ScourgeofPeaches hahahaha, says the guy watching MTG videos
I noticed Tomer skipped past Boompile when looking at destruction artifacts...
I only wanted to highlight the good options :)
@@tomerabramovici32what's better than leaving all chance to the gods of fate and destruction?
you can also filter by date (and is:firstprint so you don't get a bunch of reprints) when updating your deck
it is really good for finding cards that were released in the past couple of years
I personally use it for updating my cube since I don't get a lot of time to play with it so the updates happen pretty infrequently
i assume you already know but it wasn't in the video and is a pretty useful feature
As a budget enthusiast, I cant believe tomer didnt mention you can filter scryfall results by price.
ex: usd
Oh yeah I use that a lot! Also if you just want to see new upgrades from the latest set, you can add whatever criteria you want plus is:firstprint and then either search by the sets you're looking for or just sort the results by release date, that's something I also do all the time
Oh my god. I've been trying to do this with the "is:" command for months. Turns out I needed "otag:" the whole time. Thank you
This is awesome Tomer . No worries I was always behind the times doing the searching the old way too lol.
The scryfall tags system is great I'm making a berserk themed deck so I've been using the art tags to find cards that fit the theme like cards with an eclipse in the art
Really helpful, I didn't know that and a lot of people don't so it's always nice to share knowledge. Thanks.
You can automatically filter out cards that don't exist in paper or in magic online underneath the games filter in the advance search!
I needed this. Thank you.
Extremely helpful. Thank you for sharing!
I have been playing commander for 7 years and never knew they are actual tags on scryfall XD
thanks!!!
Thanks Tomer, very helpful
One of my favorite deckbuilders, inspiring one of my favorite deckbuilders to make this video; thats synergy ❤❤.
As a custom card creator, the art tags are pretty nice for finding good mtg art that goes with the custom card I’m designing. In particular, I made a Blue Black card named Finding Fingers, and Scryfall made it really easy to find a Blue Black card that featured hands.
That's the Video I needed to learn using scryfall the right way. thank man, really :D
News to me. Thanks for sharing.
The main thing I would add is if you use the advanced search, you can look at the text of the search to then manually type it when you want similar things in the future. By far the easiest to way to learn what each option is!
tldr: tomer helped me a ton with this. I really appreciate the guide
Best video yet. Thank you
Thanks, always been using gatherer advanced search to do what you were originally doing.
I didn't know they had tags for removal and stuff. Thanks, Tomer! This is going to make deck building much easier
This was super useful, thanks so much!
Totally knew about the tagger part of the site BUT thought it was mostly art stuff. This is going to make deck building even more fun!
game:paper format:paper helps narrow it down for commander. Additionally, you can also go down the regular expression, or regex for short,, rabbit hole for even more power
Sweet! Just when I thought Scryfall couldn't be any more awesome
Fantastic stuff!
Awesome info!
amazing! thanks
Weirdly, I've been wondering how to access the more specialized tags that I knew scryfall could do, but wouldn't spend the time to figure out. Thanks for reading my mind!
This is insanely strong for deck building. I had no idea scryfall had this feature
THANK YOU SO MUCH
haha lol did not expect to learn something new but thx, that was allways my biggest problem with scryfall but i gess it was never a problem to begin with
Super neat and well-explained, thank you!
I was also thinking, did you end up putting Voja in your Morophon deck? Seems like a great way to draw cards and buff your board
Note than scryfall tags are added by the community, which means:
1. There isn't a tag available for everything. For instance "protection" seems obvious but isn't an existing tag.
2. Not every card that should match a given tag has been tagged. Usually most will but be aware you might be missing out on some cards if you only search by tags. That's truer for newer and for less popular cards.
Also be aware that even without using tags, you can combine keywords in a single query, using parenthesis and "or", or the regular expression syntax.
For instance
(o:exile or o:destroy)
o:/exile|destroy/
Keyword:protection
@@josephwodarczyk977 I meant for general protection cards, like Heroic Intervention, Flawless Maneuver... Cards that gives hexproof, indestructible, phase out permanents, etc.
Not literally cards that give protection against something.
@@guico33 that... that makes a lot more sense, thanks for explaining. Is the protects-creature tag any good?
Starts at 11:00
Great video! I appreciate getting some advice on deck building! Wouldn’t say no to more content like this ❤
Omg thank you for this video, I have been wanting to build a “Birds” deck but not necessarily as an architype. I just wanted cards that had birds In the artwork.
art:bird legal:commander and you should be good to go!
This is insane. i have a jace tribal deck, where all cards have to have jace in the name art or flavor text. This would've been so helpfull.
I have an idea for an app (i dont want/have time to develop it, but want it developed)
The app lets you register, take a quis (about commander: im ok/not ok with staks, poison, counter magic... Like check lists, + specific card banings. Then you upload you deck lists or take them form moxfield. Once you are on the LGS just press *Start a game* the 4 plqyers join with the decks and the app automatically tells you "hey someone youre playing with doesn't like poison/mill/fast mana/LD" you could try other deck or talk it out (this based on your deck list)
I always desired a way to eliminate options after a search. For example I put in a search, get 80 results but are looking for the best 20, I can then start to tag or save the best ones, eliminate the worst and narrow it down. That would be cool.
Oh wow, tags seem awesome! I've built like 200 decks at this point without knowing about it.
I live off scryfall tagger. At this point scryfall is a shortcut search on my fire fox and I type in "Otag:[blank] o:"[some text" order:edhrec" whenever I get a deck idea.
Excellent video, tomer. Not just good information, but a good demonstration as well. You're a cool dude.
I also tried making a deck with all kinds of lords, and instead of doing each type individually, I tried to learn regex XD Probably took about as much time, because it took me quite a while to work out how best to write "o:/\b(other|all)\b(.)*\b(have|get(s)?)\b/", which still isn't perfect. The tags definitely make things *much* easier, even if they do miss things on very rare occasion, as others have mentioned.
I am still trying to learn regex just for searching better in scryfall
nope still not gonna apply regex to my actual work
Tomer making video for future tomer when he forgets syntax.
No lies D:
Cool vid, still wish scryfall let you sort by type though.
wow, I've been playing cmdr since 2019, I didn't know about otag! 😮😮😮 thanks 😂😂😂
In moxfield i use scryfall syntax. Most used is function: ... Order:edhrec
you can also say legal:edh to save some typing time
It's unreadable but f:c as in format:commander also works.
Would love to see an updated Tribal Changelings decklist!
Both the goldfish/moxfield profiles are a bit out of date!
My moxfield list is up to date, it's got Voja in it! But I will be updating again in 2 months when I'm back in Paris.
@@tomerabramovici32 ah yes, sorry I was looking at the mainboard only and not the considering section for the new additions
My only complaint with tagger so far is that, for some reason, it counts hellions as wurms through its tag inheriting and I have no idea why.
nice video
I didn't know abot EDHREC rank order... and the tagger...
Thx!
Another filter that i use a lot : year>=2023
Because i can't keep up with all the releases
You can add "-is:reprint" so you'll only get the new cards without reprinted ones.
What is this trying to make me learn business. "What are you reading for?"
if this can filter all the play from the top deck cards and draw cards both in like card advantage ill be very haooy with this feature
...He ACTUALLY shows you around 11:30.
You're Welcome.
The baby tomer pic 😂😂 👶👶
what tag do I search for Hinata?
Try this: id:WUR mana:{1} cmc>=2 oracle:target (type:instant OR type:sorcery OR type:aura) legal:commander that should be most of the cards that hinata can do a cost reduction for
I've been using scryfall wrong for years
This meaning of _primer_ is pronounced with a short _i,_ rhyming with _simmer._
Video starts at 6:11 lol
Looking for this to do it if not found
Dang it Tomer, giving away my secret technique
welp, TIL
Uhh....instead of trying to remember all that syntax, how about you just use "Advance"?
Advanced is great but it doesn't support otags and stuff. So if you want to filter by "removal" then you need to use otag:removal , can't do it with advanced search page alone.
* allows you to *bold your comments* much like a tag would.
This looks like Mirrorshell Crab propaganda. 🧐
f:edh
First
ooohhh god, pleace reupload one in darkmode.
my eyes are burning and i cant watch the video fully
I don't think scryfall has a dark mode does it?
@@tomerabramovici32 for sides without darkmode there are luckyly darkmode overlays.
Bro this is official MTGGoldfish content right? Why is he plugging edhrec LMAO
I'm plugging both edhrec and scryfall. I love both!
ew tomer video
100000% better than a crim video 🤮
