I drafted the heck out of it and I noticed today that I am 1-of "complete" with WOE, which is the first set I've done that with on Arena. While LCI looks to be good in it's own right, WOE just hit all the right notes and I miss it already, so cheers to an awesome draft format! It was great while it lasted.

Play Phantom Sealed Midnight Hunt/Crimson Vow against the opposite set. You get to play with both sets so you'll get all of the rewards twice. It also goes to 4 wins, with the usual 2 rare ICRs and random cosmetic plus an additional special sleeve for the 4th win! The event ends in a little over 21 hours from now so you still have a day to play

Channel, Demonic Tutor and Tibalt's Trickery are the only cards banned in the upcoming Historic All-Access event

I've been wanting to get started using XMage and thought it would be fun to play a few matches against the AI with the GRN Guild Kit decks (GK1) using the original printings. I found decklists on sites like mtg.wtf that list the card names and quantities, but they don't specify the original set name and card number for each card.

For example, this GitHub repo has decklists for various preconstructed decks, but also lacks the specific set information and card numbers.

What I'm really looking for are decklists that include the card name, quantity, set name, and card number in the set for each card, ideally formatted like this:

quantity [SETCODE:collector number] cardname

This .dck file format used by XMage would allow me to easily import the exact preconstructed deck I want to play with the original printings, without having to rebuild it.

It made me think how nice it would be to have all the preconstructed decks available as .dck files with the original printings specified, nicely organized into folders by product. That way I could easily grab the exact deck I want to play with in XMage without having to build it manually.

Does anyone know if prebuilt decklists with detailed set data like this already exist somewhere for preconstructed products like the Guild Kits? Or if not, I may try writing a script to generate them before manually creating the files myself.

Please let me know if you know of any resources where I could find complete decklists for preconstructed decks specifying the card names, quantities, set names, and card numbers! This would save me a lot of time in recreating the decks accurately in XMage.
