How to import decks? Which format?

[Tarik]

Hi folks!

I'm trying to import a deck from the clipboard but it won't recognize any cards.
I took it from here: tappedout[dot]net/mtg-decks/best-merfolk-deck/

The clipboard text looks like this:

Code: Select all

4 Aether Vial (IMA) 212
2 Cavern of Souls (MM3) 212
4 Cursecatcher (A25) 53
3 Dismember (MM2) 79
3 Harbinger of the Tides (DDT) 7
12 Island (RNA) 261
1 Kira, Great Glass-Spinner (MMA)
4 Lord of Atlantis (TSB)
4 Master of the Pearl Trident (DDT) 9
4 Master of Waves (DDT) 1
3 Merfolk Trickster (DOM) 56
2 Merrow Reejerey (DDT) 13
1 Minamo, School at Water's Edge (CHK)
4 Mutavault (M14) 228
1 Oboro, Palace in the Clouds (SOK)
4 Silvergill Adept (RIX) 53
4 Spreading Seas (ZEN) 70

1 Ceremonious Rejection (KLD) 40
2 Damping Sphere (DOM) 213
2 Dispel (BFZ) 76
1 Echoing Truth (C15) 93
2 Hurkyl's Recall (MM2) 48
1 Kopala, Warden of Waves (XLN) 61
1 Negate (SS1) 7
3 Relic of Progenitus (EMA) 231
2 Tidebinder Mage (DDT) 22


I wasn't able to find the format the deck has to be in ... neither here nor your wiki nor Google. Any help is appreciated!

To anser myself, I just had to remove the edition and number (what does it stand for btw?) from the end of each entry.
So this way it works:

Code: Select all

4 Aether Vial
2 Cavern of Souls
4 Cursecatcher
3 Dismember
3 Harbinger of the Tides
12 Island
1 Kira, Great Glass-Spinner
4 Lord of Atlantis
4 Master of the Pearl Trident
4 Master of Waves
3 Merfolk Trickster
2 Merrow Reejerey
1 Minamo, School at Water's Edge
4 Mutavault
1 Oboro, Palace in the Clouds
4 Silvergill Adept
4 Spreading Seas

1 Ceremonious Rejection
2 Damping Sphere
2 Dispel
1 Echoing Truth
2 Hurkyl's Recall
1 Kopala, Warden of Waves
1 Negate
3 Relic of Progenitus
2 Tidebinder Mage

Yes, that works. You don't need to put an edition (Forge can assign one) and the Collector number is not used in Forge.

But if you want a specific edition of a card, format like this:

4 Aether Vial|IMA

(Use 3-letter Forge set code)

You may also specify the specific card in the set if there is more than 1

4 Plains|M19|2
