Everything You Can Do on MyDeckStats Right Now

MyDeckStats is no longer just a place where you save a deck and write down a few match results. It has grown into a complete player toolkit designed to help you track performance, understand your list, improve your sideboard plans, and build better versions over time.

If you are a competitive player, a grinder, or simply someone who wants to stop guessing and start improving with real data, here is everything you can do on MyDeckStats right now.


1. Create and Analyze Your Deck

You can create your own deck and instantly analyze it inside the platform. The system reads your list and gives you a structured view of what your deck looks like from a gameplay perspective.

This includes things like:

  • Mainboard structure
  • Mana curve and land count
  • Card type balance
  • Color identity and deck composition
  • General strategic profile of the list

The goal is simple: give you a fast way to understand what your deck really is, not just what you think it is.


2. Save New Versions of the Same Deck

Deckbuilding is never static. Lists evolve. Cards move in and out. Sideboards change. Matchups shift.

That is why MyDeckStats lets you save multiple versions of the same deck over time.

You can:

  • Create a new version when you update the list
  • Keep a clean history of your changes
  • Review older versions later
  • Compare two versions directly

This makes testing much more serious, because you can stop relying on memory and actually see how your deck changed.


3. Compare Deck Versions, Including Sideboard Changes

Version comparison is especially useful if you are tuning a list week after week.

You can compare two saved versions and immediately see:

  • Mainboard cards added
  • Mainboard cards removed
  • Mainboard quantity changes
  • Sideboard cards added
  • Sideboard cards removed
  • Sideboard quantity changes

This means you can now understand not only how your main deck evolved, but also how your sideboard plan changed between builds.


4. Track Tournament Matches

You can log your tournament matches round by round and build a real record of how your deck performs in competitive play.

For every match, you can track:

  • Opponent name
  • Opponent deck
  • Match result
  • Game score
  • OTP or OTD
  • Notes
  • Mulligans
  • Game-by-game results
  • Sideboard plans by game

This is the kind of data that turns random testing into usable information.


5. Track One-Shot Matches Too

Not every match happens inside a tournament. Sometimes you play leagues, testing sessions, local games, quick challenges, or random reps against specific decks.

That is where one-shots come in.

You can log standalone matches and still keep all the important data, including sideboarding decisions, format, result, and opponent deck.

This lets you collect useful information even outside official events.


6. Use Smart Autocomplete for Cards and Decks

Typing should not slow you down.

MyDeckStats now includes much better autocomplete tools, especially in sideboard tracking and deck management.

The system can help you find cards even if your typing is not perfect. It is much more forgiving with small mistakes, abbreviations, and near-matches.

Examples:

  • Small typos can still find the correct card
  • Aliases like KCS can resolve to Krark-Clan Shaman
  • Known misspellings like Ancient grunge can resolve to Ancient Grudge

Autocomplete is also filtered by format where it matters, so suggestions are more relevant and less noisy.


7. Track Sideboard Plans Game by Game

One of the strongest features now available is detailed sideboard tracking.

Inside matches and one-shots, you can record what you bring in and what you take out for each post-side game.

This means you are no longer just asking “Did I win this matchup?”

You can ask:

  • What did I board in most often?
  • What did I cut most often?
  • Which cards are really doing work from the sideboard?
  • Which maindeck cards constantly leave after game 1?

8. Build a Private Sideboard Sheet

You can also create a private sideboard sheet for your own deck.

This is useful when you want a more structured sideboarding plan against specific archetypes without waiting to remember everything during an event.

Your sideboard sheet helps you:

  • Organize matchup plans
  • Save recurring side in and side out choices
  • Review your most common swap patterns
  • Turn observed habits into a cleaner guide

9. Use the New Sideboard Study

The private deck analysis now includes a much deeper sideboard study built from your real tracked games.

This section is designed to be simple to read even if you are not a theory-heavy player.

It now shows:

  • Most used side-ins
  • Most used side-outs
  • Sideboard core candidates
  • Mainboard flex slots
  • Keep these
  • Challenge these sideboard slots
  • Mainboard under pressure
  • Most repeated swap packages
  • A simplified “Magic Coach” read with direct conclusions

In plain words: it helps you understand what is actually working in your 75 and what probably needs to change.


10. Study Matchups in More Detail

MyDeckStats lets you go much deeper than a basic winrate.

You can study your matchups through:

  • Match win rate
  • Game win rate
  • OTP and OTD splits
  • Best matchup
  • Worst matchup
  • Best paper matchup
  • Worst paper matchup
  • Best online matchup
  • Worst online matchup

These recap boxes also connect back to the right matchup section so you can jump directly to the relevant data.


11. Separate Paper and Online Results

Not all metagames are the same.

Paper and online environments can behave differently, and now your deck analysis reflects that more clearly.

You can keep track of both worlds and understand whether a matchup is truly strong overall or only strong in one environment.


12. Get a Better Deckbuilding Feedback Loop

When you combine all of these tools together, you get something much more powerful than a tracker.

You can now:

  • Test a version
  • Record results
  • Track sideboard plans
  • Study which cards overperform or underperform
  • Save a refined version
  • Compare it to the old one
  • Repeat the process with real evidence

This is exactly how you move from “I feel like this is better” to “I know why this version is better.”


13. Use Friend Codes and Unlock Extra Deck Slots

MyDeckStats also includes a friend code system.

Every player has their own code, visible in the dashboard.

If a new player registers using your friend code and confirms their email:

  • You get +1 permanent bonus deck slot
  • The new player also gets +1 permanent bonus deck slot

This bonus stacks. So if multiple players use your code, you keep gaining extra deck slots over time.

And if the global deck limit changes in the future, your bonus still stays on top of that limit.


14. See Your Friend Code Clearly in the Dashboard

Your dashboard now makes the friend code system easier to understand and use.

You can:

  • See your personal friend code directly under your name
  • Open an info popup to understand how it works
  • Track the bonus deck slots you earned from confirmed referrals

This makes sharing the feature much easier and much more transparent.


15. Use a Faster, Smarter Card Database Behind the Scenes

Another major improvement is invisible but important: MyDeckStats now relies on a local card catalog for many core features instead of depending on live requests every time.

That means better speed and more stability for:

  • Deck analysis
  • Card autocomplete
  • Legality-aware suggestions
  • Sideboard tracking tools

For players, this means the site feels faster, smarter, and more reliable.


16. Improve Like a Real Player, Not Just a Casual Tracker User

The most important thing is not any single feature.

It is the way all of them now work together.

MyDeckStats helps you:

  • Track what happened
  • Understand why it happened
  • Adjust your list
  • Refine your sideboard
  • Compare versions
  • Test again with better plans

That is how real improvement happens.


Final Thoughts

If you are using MyDeckStats seriously, you are no longer limited to saving decklists and checking a basic record. You can now build a real competitive workflow around your deck, your testing, and your decisions.

Track your matches. Save your versions. Study your sideboard. Compare your changes. Use your friend code. And most importantly, turn your data into better choices.

That is what MyDeckStats is built for.
