I guess there are some collectors who really want every edition or something but it drives me nuts. This mostly becomes an issue when trying to find, say, cards you don't own from a decklist, because unless the editions match it'll tell you that you don't own the card in your collection. My biggest complaint about decked is that, depending in which way you're using it, different printings of the same card can be either the same, or different. I'm sure there are other apps that could do a similar thing, but I've stuck with decked for years and at this point it'd be a hassle to change. Then as I trade/draft/etc I'll add cards to my physical collection, while adding them to my digital one and removing them from the wants list (sometimes I forget to remove from the wants list, but it's easy to just filter by "cards i own" and then remove all the ones i own from the wants list). anje) I'll look through the set and add all the cards I want for the collection to the "%$#% I want" decklist. Whenever a new set comes out (or I'm looking through old cards that might be better than I thought, or might have relevance because of a new commander i.e.

I use the "decked" collections add-on (costs a couple bucks) and plugged in all the cards I own. I'll just quickly relate how I do mine, if you didn't already know (can't remember if we talked about it). And it doesn't help you figure out what's actually good and desirable for your collection.
