Archidekt alternative with AI: let the AI build the deck

Archidekt is a very comfortable visual Magic deck editor: drag cards around, see prices from four stores and test hands. What its site does not advertise is an AI that builds the deck for you, and it has no app in the stores either. If that is what you want, these are the alternatives.

Archidekt and its AI alternatives

What each one does best, which games it covers, whether it uses AI and whether it checks format legality.

When to stick with Archidekt

If you like building by hand, with the cards in columns and the cost in view, Archidekt is hard to beat: it imports and exports Arena and MTGO lists, shows prices from TCGplayer, Card Kingdom, Cardhoarder and Cardmarket, and it is free.

When to look elsewhere

You want to start from an idea (“dragon Commander for €100”) and have the AI give you all 100 cards: TCGJoin.

You already have your Commander deck and want an AI to suggest cuts and swaps: Farseek, which imports your deck from an Archidekt URL.

You want an app on your phone: TCGJoin has an Android app; Archidekt says on its site it has no native app.

You also play Pokémon, One Piece or Lorcana: TCGJoin builds decks for all of them on the same account.

How to bring your Archidekt deck to TCGJoin

Export the deck from Archidekt in Arena or MTGO format, create a deck in TCGJoin with “Paste a list” and open it in the Deck Coach: “make it cheaper”, “make it Pioneer-legal” or “what is its weak spot?”. Pasting the list does not use any AI tries. Your collection imports separately as a CSV: import your collection.

What the Deck Coach checks in a Magic deck

Every card’s legality comes from Scryfall’s official list for the format you ask for: Standard, Commander, Modern, Pioneer, Legacy, Vintage, Pauper, Premodern, Brawl or Oathbreaker. In Commander, 100 singleton cards within the commander’s color identity and, if the commander names its own type (dragons, elves…), at least 20 cards of that type. The cost is the sum of the cheapest legal printings at Cardmarket prices in euros. How it works under the hood: why a generic chatbot makes up cards.

Frequently asked questions

Does Archidekt have AI?

Its site does not advertise any AI feature as of the review date. It shows recommendations using its own data and EDHREC’s.

Does Archidekt have an Android or iPhone app?

No: its site says it has no native app on the App Store or Google Play, and that you can add it to your home screen from the browser. TCGJoin has an Android app.

What is the best Archidekt alternative with AI?

For Commander, Farseek. To have the AI build the whole deck in any Magic format, with its legality and cost checked, TCGJoin.

Can I move my Archidekt decks to TCGJoin?

Yes: export the list in Arena or MTGO format and paste it when you create a deck in TCGJoin. Pasting a list does not use any AI tries.
