Default card version

When adding cards to a deck, what is the default version that is chosen? Is it the latest printing?

Often. Sometimes the latest is skipped.

Similar to this question, is there any way that we can change this? either for ourselves or at a site-wide level? I really don't like that the expeditions are the default on every land that I add to any deck.

You can specify a set tla and it will use that instead

There's a glossary in the header bar named 'Cards' that lists the three letter/number code of each set. Use that code at the end of the card name for that version in deck builder. Example:

4x Deathrite Shaman [RTR]

Would list the version as Return to Ravnica vs the latest EMA printing. For a foil version:

4x Deathrite Shaman [RTR] * F * (w/o spaces)

Hope this helps!

I realize that this is a feature, what im asking is whether or not there's a way that would make it so that I don't have to use it, by having the capacity to change the defaults.

I think the problem may be that lands haven't been added to sets in a while. I could be wrong. That could fix it.

Thanks for the responses. My initial reason for asking was that I've started playing 2DH ($2 EDH) where every card has to be under $2. It would be convenient if I could force the default variant to the cheapest printing. At the moment I'm just specifying versions for cards that exceed $2 in my decklists.

notice to Femme Fatale, you can start adding lands and such to sets from now on. We also have a new feature where we can all variants of cards (such as 5 different swamps) to each set, but its not public yet.

Well, the BFZ expeditions are one example. Basically any promo that comes out that doesn't get relegated to the promos set (so like sans FNM promos) gets bumped to the default, and I just feel like there should be a way to change that.
