Since our counterpart, the illustrious, yet MysteriousMrP announced that he will no longer be updating his fabulous planner for Magic Duels Origins , many of us have been left wanting for a tool we can use to share our decks with everyone.
Being a spreadsheet junkie , I have been using Excel to create and analyse my decks since Magic 2015 and for Magic Duels Origins, I thought to give Google Sheets a try. I have developed it to a point where I thought I may be worthwhile to share with everyone. I will continue to update this as long as I'm playing the game.
Please feel free to make yourselves a copy of the file on this link I've included a few sample decks for your reference to see how it works. Please make sure it is version 3.0.06 I have received a few requests to share edit rights to the file. Unfortunately, how G! Sheets works is that you need to make a copy yourself and you'll get full edit rights. Unlike the original javascript (or any other app), G! Sheets does not create a separate instance for every individual accessing, so opening up to everyone just means no-one can use it.
I've created a guide in first tab to give a run through on how to use this file. Kudos to Auunj for starting on that.
Posting to the Forum in Cell B69, you can select 3 options in how you want to post to the forum: (by Type), (by CMC) or (by Color)
When you copy and paste cell D62 into the forum, they will be in quote marks "" and have a chunk of blank space at the bottom which you'd need to manually remove, otherwise, it is very easy and straightforward. I'm still trying to figure out why they appear.
I've pretty much copied the marvelous magic that MysteriousMrP created and at this moment, grouping by purpose, rarity is not yet available. These are not commonly used, so have no intention of adding these yet.
That's it for now . If you do try the tool, please let me know if you spot any bugs or errors so that I can work on them when I have the time.

We definitely need a planner. There was another thread going at one point to make one but I have no idea what's been happening there so it's great to have access to something like this.
Having said that, I don't seem to be able to use any of the filters etc. Either I'm missing something/ doing something incorrectly or it's locked/view only and won't allow me to make selections.
At long last! The original post has been updated to the new link for version 1.7.01.
Please make sure to make a new copy and take advantage of the new, delicious NGA tables!
yours humbly
Awesome. And now for the entitled post of the year: please make a good looking one sorted by color. This is the way the deck planner in game sorts the decks. It's the easiest way for people to remake a list. Also,
Seriously, sorry for even asking, but could you do that too?

It's easier than I thought, managed to do it up today while waiting for a meeting to start. Hope it's not setting an awful precedent Some cards are not showing properly on autocard. The spelling's right. Can someone help with this?
Have fixed spelling for fiery conclusion, also fixed issue for flipwalkers and Artificer's Epiphany. Also fixed issue where lands showing as costed spells, now show :Land: instead as it rightfully should.
For flipwalkers, the bbcode does not allow showing both cards in the same row, so used the front face instead.

Absolutely awesome! That is a work of frakking art!
I have two humble suggestions/requests to submit for your consideration:
1) Manually tweaking the RGB values that determine the background and card highlighting results in some really nice variations on the colors; any chance of incorporating this into the sheet (even just as RGB fields we can fill in)?
2) Would it be possible to add an optional subtitle beneath the main title, with a font size and format somewhere between the main title and the "A deck for Magic Duels" line? It would allow weird people like me who enjoy naming their decks to include some useful information Perhaps something like:
Somnomancy Aura Lockdown Control A deck for Magic Duels
Again---absolutely floored at how gorgeous that planner is. Awesome work, and thanks for all your effort!
