{"ops":[{"insert":"First of all, thank you for the kind words and incredibly clear suggestion! \n\nThe collection feature and how it relates to other features (such as the collection indicator stripe within decks that you refer to here) are areas we have plans to update and tweak. The enhanced behavior you describe here is certainly a direction we could go. I see the value in it if you're someone who uses the collection feature religiously and want it and your decks to be an accurate representation of your physical collection.\n\nSomething we have to be careful of, however, is overcomplicating our features. The stripes already aren't the most intuitive thing in the world (we get questions about what they are somewhat regularly), and I fear adding additional colors for additional circumstances will insure that only users who have made a conscious effort to learn the ins and outs of the feature will benefit from it. And, the higher the barrier to entry (i.e. the more confusing the feature), the less likely it is that someone new is going to try to make use of it. \n\nIt's a bit of a balancing act for us, because we certainly don't want features to be suboptimal for simplicity's sake either. If we implement something like this, I see it being something optional that a user would need to turn on. Regardless, it's a very sound idea, so we'll see if there's room to fit it in in some form next time we take a crack at collection features. Thank you again for the suggestion! \n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"Hey Jeremy, thanks for the response. I totally get your point.\nThe reason I suggested the color coding was more around not requesting a whole new different feature, but rather modifying one that exists.\nPerhaps there is something more intermediate where you don't change the color coding, but simply add your collection matches when you click on the card?\n\nIn any event, thanks again for the response and the amazing work on this.\n \n"}]}
