That's a good example where I get zero results if I misspell the search term: https://scryfall.com/search?q=black%20lotuss https://scryfall.com/search?q=black%

Whereas I Google or Duck for "mtg black lotuss" I'll almost certainly get the correct results. I feel like I'd just get frustrated with the much worse text parsing of each site's search field.
Although it is interesting that this "Scryfall" site that owns "!mtg" isn't on the first SERP for Google or DDG.
- stnmtn 6y agoYou're right, but everytime I'm searching for magic cards I want to see them in scryfall. It gives you so much more information about the card that I'm okay with having to fix a typo Being able to see price, reprints, legality, etc is great Also, the best part about scryfall is it's searching paramaters. If I want to see the most expensive red creature cards currently legal in standard, I can do `!mtg color:r sort:usd legal:standard type:creature` and it's right there It's made building decks so much easier for me with these easy text searches, as someone who loves being able to do things with a keyboard rather than selecting these parameters using a mouse on something like Gatherer https://scryfall.com/docs/syntax https://scryfall.com/docs/syntax
- jacksnipe 6y agoThe low ranking of Scryfall results is actually why I search this way. Couldn't agree with stnmtn more.
