Problems building deck

Hey all,

I'm trying to put together a deck just to test out the creation process on Magarena. Here is what I've got so far, but when I click load deck nothing happens. Before I updated to 1.17 I at least was able to get like 4 or 5 of the cards to load. I assumed it was because I needed an update to get more cards showing, and after I updated Magarena, now this dec isn't loading at all! Any advice?

Deck:
| Open
Code: Select all
# 8 creatures
3 Stonehorn Dignitary
1 Benalish Veteran
2 Gideon's Lawkeeper
2 Elite Vanguard
2 Aether Adept
3 Gideon's Avenger
1 Aegis Angel
2 Grand Abolisher

# 1 Planeswalker
2 Gideon Jura

# 13 spells
2 Frost Breath
2 Day of Judgment
1 Angel's Mercy
2 Stave Off
2 Oblivion Ring
2 Mana Leak
2 Pacifism
1 Timely Reinforcements
2 Divine Favor
1 Guardians' Pledge
2 Redirect
1 Demystify
2 Ponder

# 3 lands
4 Glacial Fortress
6 Island
10 Plains

Welcome to the forums :)

That deck isn't loading because it contains cards that are not in Magarena. Maybe older versions skipped cards that it didn't know of (??), but since at least 1.16 the program will stop loading a deck whenever it can't find a card.

It's certainly not the most user friendly way of handling things and maybe we should display a simple dialog that points out which card isn't supported. There is a deck editor in the works that would prevent this sort of error from ever happening though.

For now you can use the build in card explorer to make sure you use cards that are supported or try a third party deck editor as discussed in this thread.
