Card Spawner Guide

MTGR runs on a modified version of Amuzet's Card Importer mod in Tabletop Simulator — a Scryfall-powered tool that lets you spawn any card, generate commander pools, and more, all from the TTS chat bar.

Getting Started

Spawning Cards

All commands are typed into the TTS chat bar and start with Scryfall followed by a space.

Spawn a named card

Type the card name. Partial names and common shorthand usually work.

  • Scryfall Lightning Bolt
  • Scryfall Sol Ring
  • Scryfall Arcane Signet

Spawn with custom art (proxy)

Add an image URL after the card name. Uses Scryfall's official stats but displays your art. Supports Imgur and Steam CDN links.

  • Scryfall Island https://i.imgur.com/abc123.jpg
  • Scryfall Black Lotus https://i.imgur.com/xyz.png

Tips

  • If a card fails to spawn, check the spelling against Scryfall — some names include punctuation.
  • Stuck or slow? Run Scryfall clear queue to force-reset the importer.
  • Large pools (100 cards) take a moment — a progress ticker appears in chat while it builds.

Color Identity Codes

Used with id: in Random queries.

  • Mono: w u b r g
  • Two-color: wu wb ub ur br bg rg rw gw gu
  • Three-color: wub ubr brg rgw gwu wbg ubg wur wbr urg
  • Four-color: wubr ubrg brgw rgwu gwub
  • Five-color: wubrg
  • Colorless: use id:c
Random & Pool Generation

Random Command

Scryfall Random is the workhorse of MTGR setup. It pulls random cards matching a Scryfall query — one card, or a full pool at once. The count at the end controls how many cards spawn.

Syntax

Use the ?q= URL-style format with + between filters — this is the most reliable format for multi-filter queries. Count goes at the end after a space.

  • Scryfall Random ?q=[filter]+[filter]+... [count]
  • Scryfall Random q=[filter]+[filter]+... [count] — same without ?

Simple single-filter spaced queries also work (e.g. is:commander), but for anything more complex use the ?q= format.

Examples

  • Scryfall Random ?q=id:rb+t:creature+cmc<5 22 — 22 black/red creatures with mana value under 5
  • Scryfall Random ?q=is:commander+id:wubr 5 — 5 random commanders within WUBR identity
  • Scryfall Random ?q=f:commander+id:rw+-t:land 100 — 100 non-land Commander-legal cards in Boros colors
  • Scryfall Random ?q=r:rare+f:commander 1 — 1 random rare legal in Commander
