{"ops":[{"insert":"Does exactly what the 'Add deck to collection' button does but in reverse. If we get rid of a deck, it would make it really easy to hit that button and have all cards in that deck removed from our collection.\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"That'd be tough. The reason we don't support this feature is because it's kinda a really bad user experience. While adding cards from a deck is simple, removing them introduces a whole lot of clunk. For one, we would want to confirm with the user what cards are actually being removed, otherwise users could end up royally messing up their collection data. \n\nSo you can imagine a UI where users need to go through to confrim that 100ish cards that are going to be removed from their collection. That alone is kinda already a poor experience, but if you also take into account reconsiling cards that aren't exact matches, or any cards that someone wouldn't want removed, the experience gets a bit worse. \n\nI'm not firmly against doing something like this, but it'd require a good amount of dialing I think. I'll give it some thought.\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"The alternative though is for the user to manually go through every individual card in a deck and remove it from their collection. If they are selling or giving away a deck that would be a worse user experience in my opinion. I have way to many pre-cons and when I get bored with them I usually give them to newer commander players. Because I've added the precon to my collection, it has already taken care of what version and it accurately reflects the cards in that deck. There should be an easier way, even if it did mean streamlining the process to remove the cards from a deck one by one. \n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"I just added 368 cards to my collection by accident because I didn’t realise I had to exclude the maybe list when adding a deck to collection.\n\nThis is agony now to undo each card one by one.\n\nIn this instance I would greatly appreciate the ability to undo a specific “add to collection” operation.\n\nThat would require some screen to show my my last “add to collection” operations and an ability to undo a particular one.\n\nie I don’t want a general “remove this deck from my collection”, I want “undo this add to collection action”.\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"I appreciate the answer and you taking the time to think about it! Those are great points of course. Doing it that way would for sure be painful, but what about doing it the 'reckless' way but with backups made of the collection? Remove deck from collection, 'are you sure' prompt, backup made and operation performed. A backup perhaps held only for a day or two for you to double-check your work; I don't want to bog the servers with a million backups. But is that at all an angle or am I spouting baby brained nonsense lol\n"}]}
