Review summary

Decked Drafter is a solid tool for MTG drafting practice with helpful card insights and a clean UI, especially on iPad, and offers free starter blocks. However, users repeatedly note steep per-set pricing, outdated content, crashes, less realistic AI drafting, and missing features like multiplayer drafting and local storage, plus occasional payment issues. Overall, it’s strong for practice but costly and incomplete compared to expectations.
Pros
  • Excellent for learning and practicing drafting with easy-to-use simulations.
  • Card-by-card reviews and insights provide a solid starting point for new players.
  • User-friendly interface and smooth drafting experience, especially on iPad.
  • Free starter drafting blocks and discounts help beginners start drafting without paying upfront.
  • Useful for practicing with older sets.
Cons
  • Per-set price/paywall is steep, with most sets costing roughly $2.99–$3.99.
  • Content tends to be outdated; latest sets are often unavailable.
  • Frequent crashes and stability problems, including after updates.
  • Draft bots are not realistic and can make poor drafting choices.
  • Missing essential features such as multiplayer drafting, a local card database/collection, and unreliable pack generation (along with payment glitches).

2019-10-01 tu***** I wish they’d make the new set available to download BEFORE the pre-release so I can get some sealed practice in before the event.

2019-01-20 Hu***** I love this app. I have been playing MTG for about 9 months and this app is helped me go from an 0-3 player to a consistent 2-1 and occasionally 3-0 player. The reviews for each card are a great starting point and simulating is easy. I like it more on ipad then iphone however until I know the cards, then both are great. I do wish there was more communication from the development team ... why no Ultimate Masters? And what about Ravnica Allegiance? As of pre release weekend, they do not have Allegiance ... I wonder if WOTC forbids them to add the set until release date? Not sure.

2018-12-31 Ph***** The app is a great idea but with almost all sets behind a pay wall it gets boring fast. I didn’t get the app to practice drafting, I have other online versions for that (and they’re free) just grabbed it for on the go fun. You can only draft triple scars or Innistrad so much.

2018-11-14 Ma***** This app has extreme potential I used it when Hour of Devastation was new, however I don’t think that charging $4 per set is fair without the option for multiplayer drafting with other humans, a locally stored card database and collection system. Honestly decked builder and drafted should be one homogenous app. And I’d be willing to pay more for a single program. I’d even be willing to pay maybe $5 or $10 in the builder app for a draft function that asks maybe $1 per set or better yet, has a 1 time purchase option that unlocks all future sets. Hell, I’d even be willing to put up with ads on an app that I payed for if the draft function were free. Once a set rotates out of standard, it should honestly be free.

2018-10-02 Mr***** With that statement alone, it should be obvious these people just want your money. For a program that rarely works. Constant crashes, and with a crappy “AI” program that basically picks the worse choices.

2018-09-05 Sa***** Each set cost 2.99 to 3.99 to unlock. Want M19, got to pay. Want Dominaria, got to pay. Other apps available to use that are free or a cheaper 1 time payment, rather than pay every time a new set comes out with this junk app. Stay away!

2018-04-22 Da***** Please fix the Dominaria pack generator. There is at least one legendary creature in every Dominaria pack IRL so that should also be the case in the app. That one difference makes a large change in how you draft and since we use this app to practice for a real draft, we should be looking at packs that are as close to realistic as possible.
