Duplicate Decks / Searching by Decklist

Hello, sorry if I missed where this is.

 

Is there a way to identify decks that are identical?

The three scenarios I wondered were:

  1. Browsing the decklists, identical decks, you might want to click through to one with the guide filled out, or lots of discussion?
  2. You found a decklist elsewhere are and wonder if it is already there
  3. You build a deck, and wonder if it has already been submitted

  • Hi, you can set filter option "Has guide" to "yes", to display only decks with guides.

    And you can use "Contains" filter to search for decks with specific cards (even tho it is a bit buggy sometimes). I guess you would have to input all the unique cards, and it might still differ in number of copies of some of them, not perfect but probably as close to what you want as possible currently.

    Im not rly sure there would be a good way to implement a function that would display decks with same cards, maybe you could select a deck itself as a filter instead of a card and the process of adding each card could be automated. Not sure how difficult would tha be to implement. But one reason this might not be implemented is we dont want to discourage ppl from posting their decks just cause someone else had "dibs" on it. Several ppl can come up with a same deck, that is nothing unusual. And if you are just knowingly copying someone elses deck without giving them credit, ppl will call you out on it eventually anyway, so not like you can get away with it most of the time. And if you wan to showcase a popular deck and create a great guide for it, then go for it!

      Wouldn't they have the same Hearthstone code?

        In theory maybe, but the deck code is actually quite another issue on itself :D

          Oh.. I just assumed that as you knew how to generate it, and it's more of an encryption that a hashing, that you'd be able to do fairly simple comparisons.

          But, yeah, I don't know the details. 

           

          From a personal perspective, I see decks that I think people might like, but I could never afford to craft. I wouldn't want to just randomly add them to a site without knowing if they were there already or not.

  • We're going to soon have the ability to display "related decks" below all decks on the site. We'll give preference to decks that are guides, I don't see why we can't recommend a deck guide for the deck.
