Changelog

All notable changes to TableCommander will be documented here.

[2.0] - 2026-05-11

The TableCommander v2 redesign. Every public and authed surface (outside of in-game and admin) has been rebuilt with a new visual language: gold corner-brackets, parchment headlines, surface cards with sharp corners, and a single editorial vocabulary across every page. v1 has been removed from the bundle entirely for migrated surfaces.

Added

Full v2 visual redesign across home, blog, deck builder, deck view, decks library, cards, players, profile, friends, account, leaderboard, all auth pages, and every public marketing / SEO landing page
New v2 chrome — sticky nav with backdrop blur and gold underline on active routes, public-facing variant with Sign In / Open App CTA, mobile nav unchanged
Public deck view + deck builder now mirror their authed counterparts pixel-for-pixel via a publicMode prop on the shared v2 components — single source of truth, no parallel implementations
Home page rebuild — new section-numbered editorial layout, 2x2 screenshot showcase, multi-theme thumbnails, supporter banner with perk grid, "What This Is / What It's Not" split, redesigned guides grid
v2 auth pages — Login, Register, password reset, magic link, email verification, OAuth callback all sit on a shared AuthShell with floating-orb backdrop, gold-bracketed card, and v2 form vocabulary
6 SEO landing pages ported to v2 (commander-deck-builder, import-mtg-decks, mtg-card-database, mtg-commander-simulator, play-commander-online, play-mtg-online-free) via a shared LandingPageLayout with hero + feature showcase + closing CTA banner
Side drawers re-skinned — FriendsDrawer (pill tabs, gold unread badges, btn-gold/btn-outline request actions), ChatDrawer (gold-tinted own bubbles matching LobbyChat), AppearanceModal (gold selection rings on image / pattern / colour pickers, pill-row size toggle)
v2 deck card menu — ellipsis affordance on each deck artwork with View / Edit / Duplicate / Delete (yours) and View / Copy to My Decks (public)
v2 leaderboard — section-num + h1 header, category pill row, podium-tinted surface rows with medal crowns, gold readout-num stat tiles
v2 lobby + game bar + draft panel re-skinned to v2 vocabulary, seat colour identity, deck picker modal with thumbnails

Improved

Bundle is materially lighter — v1 component code is gone for migrated routes, uiVersion cookie infrastructure removed, ~13 000 lines of legacy code deleted
Blog post floating action bar now follows the reader down the page and intelligently fades when the "Back to all posts" link enters the danger zone (no more overlap)
Blog list filter chrome matches the /decks pattern exactly (sticky chrome with backdrop blur, surface search bar, loose filter pills below, View toggle on its own right-aligned row)
Public deck view + deck builder look and behave identically to their authed counterparts; single source of truth via a publicMode prop on the shared v2 components
Sticky filter strip on deck view now properly clears the commander rail title at all viewport sizes
Screenshots dropped from ~9 MB of PNG to ~400 kB of WebP — 22x lighter for the home page showcase
AppearanceModal + FriendsDrawer drawer roots get the .tc-v2 class so Save / Cancel buttons + drawer titles inherit v2 button styling

Foundation (under the hood)

Tailwind + Radix + shadcn-style primitives installed: Dialog, Drawer, DropdownMenu, Select, Tooltip, Popover, Tabs, Checkbox, Switch, Form (react-hook-form + zod), Button (class-variance-authority variants), Toast (sonner), Spinner. All styled with the existing .tc-v2 CSS vocabulary, no Radix safety-net classes — every primitive inherits the surface / corner-brackets / btn-gold / pill / label vocabulary that defines the v2 look
First mechanical AntD sweeps complete: message.* → toast.* (67 files), <Spin /> → <Spinner /> (43 files), <Tooltip> → <SimpleTooltip> (27 files), <Button> → CVA Button (24 files). Further per-file ports (Modal, Drawer, Select, Form, Dropdown, Input, Card, Typography, Tag, Empty, Alert) will land in upcoming releases. AntD will be uninstalled once admin pages and in-game UI are ported
react-hook-form + zod wired up for the v2 Form primitive — auth pages and settings will migrate over to declarative schemas
lucide-react added for new icons; @ant-design/icons kept during the transition

Removed

16 v1 page components, the uiVersion cookie / middleware plumbing, and the "Classic UI" footer link. The v2 redesign is the only version of the app from this release forward — visitors with a stored tc_ui=v1 cookie are auto-migrated on their next page view

Not yet in v2

In-game UI (the playmat, game session widgets) still uses the v1 AntD chrome. This is the largest single porting surface and is deliberately deferred until the v2 primitives have been battle-tested elsewhere
Admin pages (14 internal pages: badges, blog editor, bracket estimator, card database, cookie audit, formats, match integrity, patreon failures, ranks, settings, system messages, system stats, users) still use v1 AntD. Low visibility — these will be ported in a focused pass
Recent matches game-log modal — v1 had a clickable match row that opened a game log modal; v2's WinLossChart lost the click handler. Will be restored in a follow-up

[1.49] - 2026-05-03

Added

Companion (Ikoria) mechanic — pick a companion when its deckbuilding restriction is met, on web and companion app. The companion sits face-up alongside your commander and can be cast once for 3 generic mana, after which it leaves the slot and behaves like any other card. Honor-system enforcement, with banned companions filtered out of the picker
Attach mechanic — right-click an Equipment, Aura, or Fortification on the battlefield to pick a target. Bound cards stack visibly behind the target on hover, an "attachments" badge marks the recipient, and detaching is one click. Auto-detaches when either card leaves the battlefield
Featured commander zone — the deck builder now shows your commander(s) in a dedicated featured slot at the top, with replace-in-place picker, hover preview, and an ellipsis menu for swap/remove. Mirrored on the deck view page
Partner / partner-with / Friends Forever / Doctor's Companion / Background — full partner pair support in the deck builder with a dedicated partner slot, valid-partners endpoint, and a generic "Choose Partner" picker for multi-pool commanders. Brawl partner gating and Oathbreaker variant included
Floating mana column — toggle a vertical mana pool (M key) with per-color dice. Hover a die to reveal +/- controls, click for a popover with direct input and an infinite toggle
Mulligan rule selector — pick London or Vancouver mulligan when creating a casual table. London is the default. Vancouver applies its scry-1 on keep, mandatory and labelled in the UI
Mutual draw — propose a draw from the sidebar beside Concede. If all living players accept, the game ends with no winner. Draws break streaks but don't count as a win or loss
Restart table — spawn a rematch lobby from the end-game modal in one click. First click wins atomically and broadcasts to the room so other seats join the new table
Experience counters — track XP-style counters on the player status bar, alongside life and poison
Hand reveal actions — reveal your hand to a single player (private, with an echo to you) or to all players (broadcast), from the sidebar Hand actions menu
Bracket estimator signals — bracket estimates now factor in alternate win conditions, fast mana, cheap tutors, and free counterspells. Re-estimation runs as a daily cron with admin trigger, and a new admin page shows distribution and flag counts

Improved

Counters on face-down cards — counters now render on morph/manifest/disguise cards, so you don't lose track of +1/+1s on a flipped Hooded Hydra
Tokens list — token grid drops the name overlay that covered P/T, and now uses the standard hover preview to show the full card
Sidebar resize handle — rebuilt as a real knob attached to the menu edge, with a tidy 4-dot grip and a draggable side-by-side breakpoint at 1200px
Sidebar tooltips — 0.6s hover delay before tooltips show, and they now pop leftward to avoid clipping
Discord notifications — no longer pings seated players when a new player joins their table, only the format role on initial table creation
Archidekt import — Archidekt's tagged Text Export is now parsed correctly. Previously it was misread as ambiguous and the alphabetically-first card was picked as commander
Companion app — commander preview opens the correct card from deck view, notes FAB matches the styling of other deck view buttons, and partner/companion pickers ship with hover preview, violator badges, and per-companion eligibility hints
Lobby copy — "Casual (Any Deck)" table type renamed to "Kitchen Table (any deck)"
Card draft polish — set picker on its own row under name search, MV stacked under the type line, oracle text scrolls in its own box on long entries, and the Buy CTA is now a primary gold button on dark backdrops
Auth resilience — transient database blips during login now surface as 503 instead of 401, so users aren't told their credentials are wrong when they aren't

Changed

Leaderboard categories — current hot streak and best streak tabs removed from the leaderboard
Profile match history — drawn matches now show a "Draw" tag instead of "Defeat"
Shop links — Shop menu item and DROP 01 merch link removed from the profile support card while shop infrastructure is reworked

Fixed

Stale token print ids — token creation now resolves to a current print when the cached print id has been removed from the database, fixing intermittent missing-token errors. Tokens are anchored on oracle id for stability
Commander eligibility — type-based commander eligibility now reads the front face only, and legacy "Summon Legend" cards are correctly recognised as commander-eligible
Aura commander identity — Commander-granting Auras (Bruna-style) are now detected during card import
Drag/drop guard for activated companion — once activated, a companion can't be dragged back into the command zone

[1.48] - 2026-04-26

Added

Booster pack scanner — companion app gains a camera-based card scanner. Point at a booster card and it's identified via on-device OCR (ML Kit on Android, Vision on iOS), with corner-bracket framing and a brand-gold sweep. Confirms whether the exact print was matched, and double-faced layouts are supported
Whisper chat — send a private message to a specific player from in-game chat, with a broadcast notice in the room so others know a whisper happened
Per-deck private notes — attach a personal note to any deck, visible only to you. Lives alongside legality info on the deck view
Random commander picker — pick a random eligible commander when creating a new deck, on web and companion. Enlarged preview, hover preview, click-to-flip for double-faced cards
Library top card reveal — persistent peek and reveal modes for the top card of your library, with a new ellipsis menu on the library zone and hover preview on the revealed card
Draft deckbuilder polish — pick basic lands directly in the deckbuilder with overlay land controls and hover preview. Progress persists across page reloads, decks validate against picks and basic-land caps, and the game starts automatically when all players finish building
Format-legal and commander-identity filters — filter deck builder card search to format-legal cards or to your commander's color identity, on web and companion
Commander damage breakdown — hover the shield badge to see per-attacker commander damage breakdown for any player
Per-player game log filter — filter the in-game log down to a single player from the title bar
Duplicate deck — added to the deck card ellipsis menu on My Decks
Shop link — new Shop menu item linking to shop.tablecommander.com, plus a DROP 01 merch link in the profile support box

Improved

Turn advance on elimination — turn advances correctly when the active player is eliminated by life loss, poison, or commander damage

Added

Play cards from opponent's exile — you can now select and play face-up cards directly from an opponent's exile zone to your battlefield, or send them to the graveyard. For example, if you exile 26 cards from an opponent's library with Kotis, Fangkeeper and want to cast all spells with mana value 13 or less, you can open their exile, filter by max mana value, Select All, and play them all to your battlefield in one action — no more asking your opponent to move cards to the field one by one so you can copy them
Mana value filter in zone viewer — a "Max MV" filter alongside the search bar in graveyard and exile zone viewers lets you narrow cards by mana value, useful for effects like Villainous Wealth or reanimation spells with MV restrictions

Turn timer — a second timer in the sidebar tracks how long the current turn has lasted. When idle timeout is enabled, the timer text turns orange at ~12 min and red at ~14 min of inactivity as a heads-up
Idle player indicators — when a player hits the idle threshold, their quadrant/tab border shifts from the red active-turn glow to an amber pulse, an "IDLE" badge appears next to their name, and a "Force Concede" button replaces their life total
Break overlay — a dimming overlay appears during an active break showing elapsed time and which players have readied up, similar to the lobby ready-up flow
