Thread 🧵 1/9: MTGO League Data for EVERY format is now PUBLIC information. Daybreak Games has provided creators with an open rest API that can be used to gather and share data on their favorite formats.

2/9: In the past this kind of information has been used in WOTC Ban/Restriction announcements and was typically not shared to the MTG community. Daybreak has cleared this release!

3/9: Myself and Cuikui of the Vintage data team have gathered up the league information and provided it to everyone in the same format as we do Challenge data.
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

4/9: We expect others including bigger data gathering / decklist hosting sites to begin doing the same across all formats. I go over a little bit about how we do this as well as some Vintage data analysis in this video

5/9: YOU can pull data as well. The data is accessible via rest call and the information can be found here: census.daybreakgames.com

6/9: Shoutout to two users Badaro (@phelpssan) for creating scrapping tools used across mtgo data websites and Cuikui who helped me put together this Vintage sheet

github.com/Badaro

7/9: I expect other formats data collection to be more challenging and time consuming. We pulled 600k Vintage matches since MH1 in 6/1/21 multiply that # by quite a bit for something like modern.

8/9: Other formats will also run into the issue of needing strong parsing algorithms but the good news is users are already working on those inside Badaro tools

9/9: Data for the people! Ill be around today to try and help answer questions if people have them.

ALSO PLAY VINTAGE ON MTGO WITH ME!
