    I've launched a new site called MagicDrafters.com where you can upload your draft logs and analyze them. You can generate statistics such as average card pick ratings, pass percentages and wheel percentages. Our draft log analyzer can show your magic draft statistics to improve your picks and patch up any holes in your game. Compare your stats with the overall stats for all other users for a broader view of the draft environment.

    Are there any sites that get updated for sealed of the latest releases? This thread is kind of spread out, and it seems like some of them haven't been getting updated...

    Thanks


    MagicDraftSim.com has a sealed deck simulator for new sets as soon as they are available. It now has a deck builder as well.

    Thanks for all your hard work! As a note, is there a way to sort your card pool by rarity in the new sealed deck generator? It's not showing up for me...

    Edit: Also, it seems that if you get too many cards in one color in a sealed deck it distends into the box below, making it tough to sort. Still, absolutely awesome work-- I was very surprised to see the set online the night that the spoiler was completed.


    I'll look into adding sorting options to the sideboard tomorrow. I realize the sideboard cards occasionally spill over onto the main deck...I'm having trouble fixing this problem, so I just made the sideboard rather large by default for now...thanks for the feedback though.

    This is great. By the way, I had a build that did not include Bitterheart Witch as creatures. They were over in the land column when sorted by type, and they weren't in the creature count. It is the black 1/2 uncommon creature that allows you to tutor a curse and put it into play when it dies.


    Good catch...I've fixed it, but it won't be sorting as a creature until the next time I rebuild the site, probably sometime tonight...

    Due to popular demand, I've added a sealed deck builder. Its not perfect, but it works.

    I'm working on getting a deck builder for the sealed deck simulator.

    I don't know why, but it seems like the new bots don't like gold cards...which is unfortunate considering they are all bombs in this set...I think they that fit into their color schemes better...their ratings are getting better, but I still need to review the bot configurations to figure out how to fix this problem.

    I'm rebuilding it right now so that the double faced cards have their rarity taken into account when a pack is cracked. This should fix the problem w/ having too many garruks. Should be fixed in 10 minutes or so. Thanks again for the feedback.

    I've fixed the issue w/ double faced cards...one appears in every pack now at the expense of the 10th common. Cackling Counterpart is now listed as rare. I've upgraded the server to cope w/ the traffic...its running okay now, but no guarantees. I'm still tweaking the new bots...AI is hard...Thanks for the feedback everybody Smile

    Obviously the site has been overloaded, but I've taken a few steps to stabilize it. It should be working pretty decently...at least for now. I'll work on speeding it up over the next few days.

    Thanks for all the feedback Smile I've been cleaning up the card database here and there, no more rare lightning elementals or titans Smile

    The bot does take into account splashability.

    I realize there are 2 copies of each land in the set, but who cares? Its just another piece of art. There is always one basic land per pack in NPH.

    Again, you might get some sick commons coming around in MBS and SOM because it overvalues rares/mythics in those sets.

    It looks like its still overvaluing rares/mythics a little in NPH...I think I'm just gonna turn off its very small preference for rarity altogether. Also, a lot of the best cards' ratings just approach 1 as time goes on...I gotta fix that...I have an idea how, but it may have to wait for the next set.

    You're welcome. I fixed the 'Add Land' problem...there were 2 copies of each land in the set by accident.

    NPH has fat pictures because its using the spoiled images...they will be regular sized after the prerelease. Its on my to-do list to find a way around this.

    Regarding the 'Add Lands' fuction, I think there may be a problem with NPH basic lands...I'm looking into this. Thanks for the heads up.

    No need to retract, you were correct. I appreciate the feedback and the honesty. Experiments that lead to dead-ends often reveal as much as experiments with more successful results, so I'm okay with it.

    MBS and SOM average pick ratings over-accentuate rares and mythics. This problem was exacerbated by all the colorlessness. I have severely reduced the bot's focus on rarity for NPH. Hopefully NPH works out better.

    Thanks for the work Memnarch.

    I noticed a few typos in some of the cards...
    Concussive Blast should be Concussive Bolt
    Creeping Corrosion is slightly misspelled...missing the second 'o'
    Gust-Skimmer is missing its hyphen...not sure if anybody cares

    Thanks again
