# Magic: The Gathering
|
|
|
|
[Magic: The Gathering](https://magic.wizards.com) - often shortened to MTG or Magic - is a tabletop
|
|
collectible card game.
|
|
MTG is published by [Wizards of the Coast](https://company.wizards.com) - which are commonly
|
|
reffered to as Wizards.
|
|
|
|
## Resources
|
|
|
|
There are many useful resources.
|
|
The following list provides a select few of them.
|
|
|
|
- [cardmarket](https://www.cardmarket.com/) is a trading post for tabletop cards based in europe.
|
|
- [deckstats.net](https://deckstats.net/) gives the option to build and analyze MTG(A) decks.
|
|
- [Delver Lens](https://www.delverlab.com/) is an [Android](/wiki/android.md) application for
|
|
scanning cards and displaying its price.
|
|
Following scanning the cards can be exported to a CSV file.
|
|
- [Magic Judges](https://chat.magicjudges.org/mtgrules/) is a live chat with judges to clarify the
|
|
rules.
|
|
- [MTG Desktop Companion](https://www.mtgcompanion.org/) is a collection manager for MTG that
|
|
includes prices, stats and a deck builder, aswell as the option to import and export to most of
|
|
the used MTG deck formats.
|
|
It is free and open-source.
|
|
Its source code can be looked at on their
|
|
[GitHub Page](https://github.com/nicho92/MtgDesktopCompanion).
|
|
- [Tapped Out](https://tappedout.net/) is a website that among other things can suggest decks based
|
|
on owned cards.
|
|
- [What's in Standard?](https://whatsinstandard.com/) lists the sets that are currently legal in
|
|
the standard format.
|
|
|
|
## Playing Online
|
|
|
|
There is a fully digital and online version of MTG called
|
|
[Magic: The Gathering Arena](https://magic.wizards.com/mtgarena) - or MTGA for short - that has
|
|
nearly the same rules as the tabletop variant.
|
|
Another alternative to playing fully digital is [Magic: The Gathering Online](https://www.mtgo.com).
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to remotely play with tabletop cards.
|
|
This is most easily done on [Spelltable](https://spelltable.wizards.com/) which is an official
|
|
website by Wizards.
|
|
For playing Spelltable a [webcam](/wiki/webcams.md) is needed to be set up with a bird's eye view
|
|
over the playing field.
|
|
An alternative to a normal webcam is [DroidCam](/wiki/android/droidcam.md) for
|
|
[Android](/wiki/android.md) which is supported by the website itself.
|
|
|
|
Both Spelltable and MTGA use the same login credentials.
