Collections
Searching and filtering a collection
The query syntax on the items toolbar, from card fields to tags, decks, and what you paid.
The search box above a collection's items works the same way card search does, and takes the same terms. What it adds is a second set of terms for the things only your collection knows: what condition a copy is in, how many you hold, what you paid, and which tags or decks you attached to it.
Anything Pitchstack does not recognize as a term is treated as a name search, so you can start simple and add precision as you need it. Filters (F) opens the same thing as a form, and the two stay in step, so opening the filters shows what you typed and applying them rewrites the query in the box.
Card terms
These narrow by what the card is, and behave exactly as they do on card search.
| Key | Short | Matches | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
class | c | The card's class | class:ninja |
type | t | The card type | type:action |
subtype | st | The subtype | subtype:attack |
talent | tal | The talent | talent:light |
keyword | kw | A keyword on the card | keyword:dominate |
color | red, yellow, blue, or none | color:red | |
double | true for double-faced cards only | double:true | |
set | s | The set code | set:WTR |
rarity | r | The rarity | rarity:majestic |
artist | art | The illustrator | artist:"name here" |
language | The printing language | language:en |
Numbers take a comparator (>=, <=, >, <), or a plain value for an exact match, and can be repeated to make a range, so cost>=2 cost<=4 is cost between two and four.
| Key | Short | Matches | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
cost | co | The card's cost | cost>=3 |
pitch | p | The pitch value | pitch:1 |
power | pow | The attack power | power>4 |
defense | d, def | The defense value | defense<=2 |
health | hp | Hero health | hp:20 |
intelligence | i | Hero intellect | i:4 |
Legality is written as a status and a format: legal:cc, banned:blitz, suspended:cc, and ll:cc for cards that have aged out into Living Legend.
Collection terms
These are the ones that only make sense here, since they narrow by what you recorded about a copy rather than by what the card is.
| Key | Also accepts | Matches | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
condition | cond | The condition you set | condition:nm |
qty | quantity | How many copies you hold | qty>=4 |
price | Market price per copy | price>=10 | |
gain | Market price against what you paid | gain>0 | |
acquired | paid, acquired-price | What you paid | acquired>=5 |
tag | One of your own tags | tag:"trade binder" | |
deck | Copies marked as living in a deck | deck:"my kayo list" |
Acquired price also takes two special values: acquired:none finds copies with no price recorded, and acquired:any does the opposite.
Note: wrap a value in double quotes when it contains a space, as in the tag above.
Putting it together
A minus in front of any term excludes it instead, which is how most useful queries end up shaped.
class:ninja rarity:majestic qty>=1 -tag:"trade binder"Majestic Ninja cards you own at least one of, that are not already set aside for trading.
acquired:none price>=5Cards worth five or more that you never recorded a price for, which is the list worth fixing first. See Building your collection.
Sorting and layout
Beside the search box sits a view toggle between a grid of card images and a table, a sort picker, and a direction toggle. In the table, column headers sort and the Columns menu decides which ones are shown; on the website you can also resize a column by dragging its edge.
Note: sorting by market price orders by the price of one card, not by what your whole stack of them is worth.
