Discover: find the cards you don't own yet. • Discover: swipe through a curated set of cards that refreshes daily. Tap Want to send one to your wishlist, or Have to add it to your collection. • Your Collection now opens onto Discover, so the next card to chase is one tap away. • Trade Night: notifications now reach you for the event you actually joined, and rejoining a room keeps an accepted trade intact. • Traded history is now reachable from the Trade tab, where trading happens. • Variant-exact pricing for the cards you own, so a holo and a non-holo copy of the same card no longer share one price. • Faster tab switching, steadier scanning, and the usual round of fixes.
