Is it possible to set cards as foil in a decklist?

So I'm tracking my foiled out cards in one of my decklists, and and I've also where possible (due to them being promos) set the correct version to display. I noticed that doing that also displays the price for the version chosen, and wondered if it was possible to set cards that don't have a promo as 'foil' to get a vaguely accurate indicator of the price of the deck.

You can currently add :foil: after the card name for a :foil: mark to appear.
Adding Foil pricing to our price tracker, and a way to specify "foil" in card/deck tags better, is on the short list of feature adds.

No worries. Also, why do I get the feeling that your 'short list' is a bit like Maro's and every time something comes off it three more things go on?

The site as it currently exists is but a fraction of what it will be.

Foil pricing has been added to the system.
Pricing graphs might look a little funny until we get some pricing history on there though.

Having a foil-specific tag that shows the foil price in the popup, etc, is still on the list.

After a bunch of brainstorming, this is now added.
I may tweek some more things, but it'll only be display, not function/how-to.
(The foil overlay is decent, but I hope to come up with something better, etc)

The syntax is:
[card]Cardname|Foil[/card]

You can also specify both foil and the set/version:
[card]Cardname|Foil|Set[/card]

You can also do this in a deck tag, just like supplying a set there.

Code: Select all

[deck]
Spells
4 Fireball|foil
4 Ghitu Fire|foil
4 Banefire|foil

Land
44 Mountain|foil
4 Blighted Gorge|foil
[/deck]
