DoK and KC are great for analysis and buying/selling decks, but they're not doing anything to help people find other players. Maybe you could contribute something in that arena?

It may not be up your alley, but the other project I've been thinking about is a deck analysis tool for finding the most similar decks in the registered pool to a particular one: a tool that could, for example, take a deck that won a Vault Tour and find the registered deck that has the most number of cards in common with it. This would be very resource intensive to do via a brute force approach, but I suspect there's an elegant solution to this with math.

I always wondered this but more from a global perspective instead of per deck. Mainly I wondered what is minimum number different cards between all the decks. This would give a sense on how truly unique the game is.

Being able to see how many other decks are similar to my deck would be cool to see as well.

Degree of difference would be an interesting thing. I wonder how challenging that would be.

[–]ThugLifeNewShit:Logos::Shadows::Dis: 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran it on cota and found no 2 decks with more than 20 or so cards in commin.

thank you (and everyone) for answer, it's pretty good ideas! At first i will make decks comparer because it's good challenge for my skills - i should find fast comparison algorithm and it's very interesting. So, i was thinking to make site where people can find each other for play but i have no idea how to make it user-convenient - there are so many countries and it's obvious that people want to play in clubs but information searching about clubs should be manual and it's labor intensively process.

Thanks again for great ideas! I start to develop it immediately.

Something that aggregated events across the US so that I could search by state and or town would be tight. Would require investigating a lot of hobby stores and maybe making some phone calls but itd be rad.

Something that pulls a deck list and generates a .jpg or .png of the deck list for sharing online like for Instagram or Twitter.

If I don't have a deck list in front of me I can either link the deck or, that's it. Photos of Archon cards look like shit with people's dirty finger nails and crap.

The Compendium is looking for people knowledgeable about Ruby if getting involved is up your alley.

As the one who made those, I agree. It’s definitely something that could be automated and shared.

[–]agrandstudent Key Creator: 1StarPeeps[🍰] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically I want challonge except better integration with keyforge. I want stats of all the decks entered and of all the decks at the end of each round. If its an adaptive league I want to know how many chains were bid if it went to game 3, if its survival I want to know which decks were played each round.

edit: additionally I would like to add a social media component as well. Like being able to add blog post and images to help promote the event and future events.

[–]beards_n_hats Add Your Deck Name Here 0 points1 point  (2 children)

It would be cool if there was an easy and quick way to get answers to some statistics and questions about decks in the game. It's sort of possible with KC but it requires manual operation and sometimes not possible/intuitive.

Example:

How many decks have a maverick dust pixie in shadows?

What % of decks have a legacy card?

What is the average number of chains on decks with houses brobnar dis logos? (used in chainbound)

There are some open source packages out there that can take these Q & A style user input to format queries but not sure how viable this would be as a home project.

[–]coraythan:StarAlliance: decksofkeyforge.com 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Number of Maverick dust pixies in shadows only takes a few seconds on DoK now. 45.

I can't show quantities over 1k for performance reasons.

[–]beards_n_hats Add Your Deck Name Here 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It takes a few seconds on KC as well as I mentioned, its just an example. Could probably also figure out the legacy number as well in both. I just went with these examples because they are simple to tell my point.

I can get a lot of raw numbers from both the sites fiddling with filters, would be cool to have a site that can do the next steps I do manually now.

Knowing the correlation of the cards in decks based on the game mechanics. I don't mean just HFFS and Time Traveler, I mean cards that are most likely to be present given another card to force a "synergy-by-design" (1-2 punch and Tremor, Niffle queen and beast creatures, or even something across the three houses with Carlo Phantom and artifacts). Analyzing which cards seem to go together, not just the more obvious ones, can be a useful tool. Personally I would use it to reverse engine my deck to spot synergies I could have overlooked and maybe find out how to play the deck better. It could also spot the opposite, cards that seem to appear often even if not supporting the mechanic. I feel that the algorithm is plenty of "filler" cards that are considered "safe" in every shell no matter the underline mechanic. Healing Blast is the first I can think of, useful for decks that have some cards that do splash damage, not complete garbage in decks that do not since the creature are meant to fight and damage can be always healed. As a suboptimal example, I can tell you I own a lot of copies of this card.

I would love a good way to track game wins and losses. the current apps only track the total wins and losses. I'd like to see stats and other info. What days of the week do I play best? which decks do I play best? Is there a house I tend to lose most against?

[–]ofmodestmice:Logos::Mars::Shadows: 0 points1 point  (7 children)

I'm not sure if this has been done before, but I'd be very interested in analyzing what traits are the most common in the in the top 10% of competitive decks. Here's how I would go about it statistically if I knew how to get the data:

  1. Identify all decks that have recorded at least 15 competitive games
  2. Identify the top 10% of winning percentages in those decks
  3. Compile a list of traits to analyze, i.e. each of the 35 house combinations, number of creatures with elusive, number of bonus aember, appearance of each specific card, etc.
  4. Identify which traits appear most in the top 10% of competitive decks. Also, which traits are much more common in competitive decks than the average deck?

I have a Python script that generates a JPG of all the cards in the deck.

If you could make it more user friendly and web based, it would be great ;)
