Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sorcery TCG Game Assistant at none against MTGDB's 1. Sorcery TCG Game Assistant also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). MTGDB's advantage is review sentiment (33% vs 0%) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 8 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
