As
announced I am excited to release a new version of the Deckstats design - including a dark mode theme - today!
Here is a quick overview over all the changes in this update:
- New design: I have kept the familiar color scheme, but modernised the layout and cleaned up a bunch of details. Some buttons have moved around a bit and some pages may look a little different, but the core functionality has not changed and everything should be easy to find.
- Dark and light themes: you can toggle to dark mode with a switch at the bottom of the page, or let the site adjust automatically based on your OS settings.
- Improved deck preview images: when posting decks to other sites like reddit or Discord, the preview image will now be high-res art from a card in your deck, replacing the old 'color stripes'. We will try to choose a sensible card automatically (eg. if you're playing commander it will use the art from the commander), but you can also select your favorite from the deck properties. The next time you save your deck, the color stripes on Deckstats will be replaced by card art too.
- Improved mobile layout in the forums: the design of the forums will still require some further work, but they should be a bit more usable on small screens now. I am planning to make further improvements to the forums over time.
It has been a long road to make this happen, so I hope you enjoy these changes!
As usual, if you notice any bugs or have further suggestions please post here, message me in
