Collection Tracking Tutorial (MTG + Pokemon)

Learn the live tracking flow: sign in, mark cards with quick actions, and monitor per-set completion as you build your collection.

Quick Start

How tracking works

  1. 1

    Sign in

    Collection and wishlist actions require an authenticated account session.

  2. 2

    Use Own / Want

    Track cards directly from card tiles and detail surfaces.

  3. 3

    Check set progress

    Set surfaces show owned vs total cards and completion percentage for your account.

  4. 4

    Add optional details later

    Condition, language, and finish are optional and can be layered on after V1 tracking.

Track from these entry points

Start from search when you know the card, or from sets when you want progress-driven completion.

Priority surface

Pokemon Search

Find cards fast and track ownership directly while browsing.

Core surface

MTG Search

Search across printings and keep status consistent across surfaces.

Set progress

Pokemon Sets

Open set pages and monitor completion with owned-versus-total progress.

Set progress

MTG Sets

Track completion while browsing set-level card lists and details.

Quick actions behavior

  • `Own` toggles a quick collection entry for the current card.
  • `Want` toggles a quick wishlist entry for the current card.
  • For MTG, state is normalized across printings by oracle card identity, so status stays consistent between search, set, and printing surfaces.
  • If a card is present only as a detailed variant entry, quick remove is intentionally blocked on tile surfaces.

Set completion progress

  • Visible only for signed-in users.
  • Appears on set list cards and set detail headers.
  • Computed from unique owned cards in your collection divided by total cards in that set.

Optional card details

  • Condition, language, and finish are optional and not required for collection tracking in V1.
  • The fastest flow is still quick `Own` / `Want` actions from card pages.
  • Detailed attributes can be added later without changing basic ownership progress.

V1 Default

Track now, enrich later.
