Looks really polished, nice. I just wish the cards loaded a bit faster.

the 3d renderer is a bit greedy, but i’ve got a few ideas here. thanks for giving it a spin and for the input!

Fun, though a bit much for eye candy that doesn't really serve any purpose. https://gatherer.wizards.com/ has all the same info in a much snappier package.

offhand 2 complaints. that particle logo eats 5% of my CPU while it's visible. clicking a card is full screen like I left the page, but didn't so I can't use the back on my browser to go back to the grid.

thanks for looking! i know gatherer and scryfall well - great tools! i wanted something that felt a bit more cinematic and photorealistic.

on the cpu, mind sharing what you're running? i'm on an m1 mba and i'm far from that number.

cards open in lightbox, so esc gets you back to grid. common pattern, but appreciate your feedback and will consider adding it as a route.

thanks again!
