Archidekt x FlyQuest Duel Land Event Begins June 14th

MagicCon Vegas event key art | copyright Wizards of the Coast
It's a scenario with which many are very familiar. You're heading to a MagicCon and perusing the mammoth list of artists who'll be in attendance, and wondering if there's an efficient way to search through your decks to see just how many cards you're playing that were illustrated by those artists.
To help, Archidekt has just announced a new "<a href="https://archidekt.com/magiccon" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MagicCon</a>" feature, free for users of the deckbuilding website. For the upcoming MagicCon Vegas, there are <a href="https://mcvegas.mtgfestivals.com/en-us/art-of-magic/artist-directory.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a whopping 61 artists</a> who'll be on-hand to sign cards, sell prints and tokens, and chat with attendees. And with Archidekt's help, you can arrive prepared.
<h2>How to Use the Archidekt Artist Search Feature</h2>
Previously, you'd have two options. You could have simply memorized every card done by every artist. Or, you could open up Scryfall, search cards by each artist, and cross-reference that with every card in every deck you've got.
Now, simply sign in (though it's not required) to Archidekt, choose your deck from the drop-down menu or import a text list, and Archidekt will tell you instantly which cards in your deck were illustrated by artists who'll be attending MagicCon Vegas.
And even if you're not signed in, you can easily paste in an export from another site to import into the program.
<a href="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon1.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-155401" src="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon1-300x187.png" alt="" width="934" height="582" srcset="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon1-300x187.png 300w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon1-1024x638.png 1024w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon1-768x478.png 768w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon1.png 1260w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 934px) 100vw, 934px" /></a>
And if you'd rather see entire catalogs of each artist's work, you can do that, too:
<a href="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon2.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-155400" src="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon2-300x196.png" alt="" width="947" height="619" srcset="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon2-300x196.png 300w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon2-1024x670.png 1024w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon2-768x503.png 768w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/archmagiccon2.png 1375w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 947px) 100vw, 947px" /></a>
Simply head to the page, scroll down, and click "view artist's cards" for a convenient ready-made syntax search revealing every card by each artist.
And while you're there, if you see a card that strikes your fancy, you can add it to one of your existing decks with the click of a button.
<h2>See Archidekt and the EDHRECast at MagicCon Vegas</h2>
