Template:Decks/doc

This is a template documentation subpage for Template:Decks.
It contains usage information, categories, interlanguage links and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template produces a list of decks, e.g. intro packs, event decks, or theme decks.

Template usage

• Supports a maximum of 13 decks.
• The first parameter specifies the type of deck. It must be planeswalker for Planeswalker decks and commander for Commander theme decks. Generic theme decks use theme, if theme deck has an iconic card use iconic. Other deck types, like challenger, event, guild, or intro are also supported. User pages may use user, to disable the automatic deck name linking and add a column for notes.
  • To display a different name for the deck type, use the first parameter for the displayed deck type and {{{type}}} for the template logic.
• For each deck, there are two or three required parameters, depending on deck type:
  • The deck name. Use unknown if not yet announced. Link syntax ([[Link|Deck name]]) can be used to override the default link.
  • The deck's colors, e.g. WUBRG or C.
  • In planeswalker, commander, iconic, intro, and user mode, there is a third required parameter:
    • For Planeswalker decks, the name of the Planeswalker. Do not surround with <c></c>.
    • For Commander theme decks, the name of the primary commander. Do not surround with <c></c>.
    • For theme decks with iconic card, the name of the iconic card. Do not surround with <c></c>.
    • For intro packs, the name of the foil rare card. Do not surround with <c></c>.
    • For user decks, any deck notes.
• The optional parameter {{{page name}}} can be used to change where the deck names will link to (they will link to a section on a subpage of {{{page name}}} depending on the displayed deck type). It defaults to the name of the page where it is used.
