Styles in LCI draft? (self.mtg)

submitted 11 months ago by tedmustard to c/[email protected]

8 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Previously, if you opened an alternate style in draft, you could change it to the regular card image. However today i opened the battle cry vamp with an alternate art but the button to change art style in the draft deck builder is gone. Does anyone know how to do this in your draft deck now or have they removed this option?

I do know that they introduced a new mechanism for switching card styles. There is an arrow at the bottom of the card which should allow you to see all available versions of the card. If you don't see the button in the top right to change art style in the deck builder something must be broken, that seems like a bug. If you have time would you mind posting a screenshot.

Usually i see more than one diamond for the alternate styles, but there's only one here.

Ok, I think I know what they changed. You first have to remove all copies of the card from your deck, so that it looks like this:

THEN add back only the non-styled cards to your deck. You may have to click the white arrow at the bottom of the card to expand the options.

If you click the card style card, you will have to remove all copies from your deck and re-add them I believe.

Yeah this works in the regular deck builder, but the draft deck builder doesn't give you the option anymore.

Wow that is so frustrating. They must not have tested it in the draft deck builder 😬

Thanks for trying to troubleshoot, nonetheless 😊

The screenshot i posted was from the draft Deck builder with the card removed from my deck

I believe they changed the interface, actually. I don't see the original icon and you can't seem to change styles from the deck builder itself anymore. I honestly cannot figure out how to remove the card style from any of the cards in my decks now. This COULD be a bug but I will check it out more today and see if I can figure it out.

Edit -- see other comment, I think I figured it out
