Bloom

A little extra Magic at the table. Bloom is the most beautiful way to keep score in Magic: The Gathering. Track life, commander damage, and everything that matters for your whole pod — so you can focus on the game, not the math. BUILT FOR COMMANDER From a quick two-player duel to a six-player pod that runs past midnight, Bloom is made for the way you actually play. Per-source commander damage, the 21-damage rule, and a 40-life start are all baked in. EVERYTHING THAT COUNTS Life, commander tax, poison, energy, experience, rad, and ticket counters — all a tap away. Bloom keeps up with the format, with built-in tracking for the Monarch, the Initiative, the Ring tempting you, Speed, City's Blessing, and more. MAKE IT YOUR OWN Give every player their own look. Pull real card art straight from Scryfall. Best of all, snap a photo right from the player's tile — point the camera across the table and put everyone's face on their own seat. EVERY GAME, REMEMBERED Bloom quietly tracks every turn and swing as you play, then lays the whole match out — life charts, big plays, and eliminations — so you can look back on how it unfolded. Spend less time scorekeeping and more time playing. Shuffle up. — Bloom is an unofficial fan app and is not affiliated with, endorsed, or sponsored by Wizards of the Coast.
