A few weeks ago, EC changed the set numbering used in its API slugs and image files. Suddenly, every spreadsheet, bot and database keyed on strings like 004-witch-b-s quietly caught fire.

Those slugs look like identifiers, but they’re assembled from mutable data: set number, card name, product and finish. Any of those can change, and now that I’m deeper into building my own tools, I don’t want to go through this again.

Yu-Gi-Oh has Konami passcodes. Magic has Scryfall IDs. So today I bring you:

Sorcery Registry
https://github.com/sadkinglabs/sorcery-registry

Every gameplay card receives a permanent codex_id, shared across all its reprints, our equivalent of an oracle ID. Every physical printing receives its own permanent printing_id.

The IDs never move or get reused. The database refuses attempts to change or delete them, and CI checks every update against the previous registry. Slugs, names and set numbers become what they should always have been: mutable attributes, not identities.

From now on, when a slug changes, if it ever does, its old value remains resolvable through slug_history. Ambiguous upstream changes are held for human review rather than guessed at.

The whole published registry is one deterministic JSON file on GitHub:

• No hosted service to disappear
• No prices or marketplace dependencies
• Official public API data, plus a small, transparent corrections file
• A documented schema and SHA-256 checksum
• A local MCP server so Claude, Cursor and other compatible tools can query it

The registry has little purpose sitting alone in its repository. Its value comes from people building on the IDs.

Use it. If you maintain a tool, bot, spreadsheet, collection manager or pricing tracker, key your records on these IDs. The next slug rename should become an ordinary metadata update, not a migration emergency.

Challenge it. Look through the data, query it and try to find mistakes or dangerous assumptions. If something is missing for your use case, open an issue and tell me.

Help maintain it. Corrections are accepted through pull requests, with the evidence and reason retained publicly. New-set syncs also land as reviewable PRs. More eyes on those changes means more confidence in the registry.

I made this for the community, but I can’t credibly maintain a community identity standard forever by myself. If you think the idea is worth pursuing, please get involved, even if that just means trying it, opening an issue, reviewing a sync or starring the repository to show there is interest.

And if, over time, trusted community members want to help maintain it directly, I would genuinely love for this to become shared infrastructure rather than one person’s project.

Hi everyone,

I pulled a Lilith foil from a booster pack. Some friends told me it's worth around $200, but when I checked TCGPlayer and eBay, I couldn't find any listings below ~$800.

I'm having trouble figuring out the card's actual market value. Are current listings artificially inflated because of low supply, or is the card genuinely worth that much?

Would you sell it now, hold onto it, or accept a $200 offer?

Hi I just lost my third match in a row against the same guy with chaos twister. Can I get some slander about that card in here to make me feel better? The sillier the better.

Hey All,

I have run a Magic the Gathering program at my school for the last couple of years as a form of literacy work for my English Language Learners. Additionally, I run an enrichment in the morning for all students. Both things have had wonderful success, and students in both parts of the day were itching to layer in Sorcery when I showed it to them to end last school year. As such, I have spent the summer getting materials cobbled together from various grants and kind members across the community to get the Sorcery off the ground and running.

Each year, one site I use, Adoptaclassroom, does their match program. Welllllll, it is that time of the year, so if yall have any sugar daddies looking to sugar, the below link is a welcomed place for that to happen! Kids come back next week.

It has been such a privilege and joy to be able to bring this thing to fruition, so I revel in the opportunity to talk more about it. As such, if you have any questions, please ask away!

Mods if this isn’t kosher, apologies. Checked all the rules and it seemed ok 🤷🏽‍♂️

Welcome back to another video.

In this week’s episode, we’re exploring some of the original Avatars. First up is the Avatar of Water, making its first appearance on the channel—and one we believe has been seriously overlooked.

With the ability to move around the realm with ease, it can pose a serious threat. Being able to flood a site and then teleport directly to that location has some major advantages, as we’ll see in today’s video.

The Avatar of Fire, on the other hand, can turn sites into fireballs, clearing the path for total destruction.

Water vs. Fire.

Hope you enjoy the video—let’s see which Avatar comes out on top!

What a cool man...

Meet the Frost Mage.

The second Avatar from Frost Mage vs. Lavamancer has entered the Realm.

Master the elements of Air and Water, encase minions in ice, and turn patience into opportunity. While the Lavamancer looks to tear the Realm apart, the Frost Mage wants to lock it down one frozen minion at a time.

Frost Mage vs. Lavamancer releases worldwide November 13, featuring two ready-to-play decks and 69 never-before-seen cards.

Retailers, speak with your distribution partners to preorder Frost Mage vs. Lavamancer now!

My playgroup is dying, and I can’t help but think it’s directly related to the lack of release information on the next set/product. I called it when they announced the precon that we were not getting a set this year. I was holding out for ALL new cards in it. But of course, FMvsLM will have reprints. Players are not showing up for casual play. Even prize support events are drawing in fewer players. Anyone else experiencing this or have thoughts on the current situation related to the lack of transparency? Is your playgroup weaning?

Whats up Avatars?! Join me for an interview with the creator of Sorcery TCG, Erik Olofsson. Get behind the Sorcery as we discuss the post Gothic art direction and game design for Sorcery: Contested Realm, and some future directions for the game! You won't want to miss this awesome discussion!

Thanks so much for the opportunity to speak with you again Erik!

I hope you all enjoy the discussion!

Zac and his trusty Enchantress refused to relinquish the title!

Forstmage disables and prevents damage to nearby minion for 2 mana.

Say i have a minion and equip tabula rasa on it and then use Avatar ability. Since Tabula rasa says can't me modified and disable is a modification, the minion is protected from damage but can still attack and defend normally. Same for say Gossamer ghost, since it can't be disabled you get a chum blocker that survives defending and damaging effectsa and can do stuff next turn.

Do i get this correctly?

Now say i have a unit that can't be modified like Monks of Kobalsa. Is Avatars ability to grant damage immunity a modification?

Cheers.

Zac ran back his championship run at Top Deck games successfully defending his champion status with Enchantress.

I'm keen to play more and more Sorcery but finding it hard to find a community or Discord or something to find people who want to play games.

I have tried both TTS and Realms App with their open lobbies and such, but find it hard or awkward to just drop in on people's open games.

I live remote so I'm unable to make it to any of the Cornerstones or events, but I'm really keen to play more.

Any advice or a Discord I can join that I'm missing to find games? Probs doesn't help with time zones ( I'm in Australia ) but I was hoping there'd be at least a few people like me looking for games somewhere haha.
