Incorrect Point Calculation For CanLander Deck
TappedOut forum
Posted on Feb. 8, 2019, 1:20 p.m. by Seskra
Hi everyone,
I was finally getting around to posting my decks on here today, mostly Commander and CanLander, when TappedOut claimed one of my CanLander decks was running 11/10 points and therefore couldn't go up. Yet when I ran the numbers, I only came out to 9/10.
The deck in question is: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/08-02-19-XCG-the-floor-is-lava/
It's a very silly deck that runs zero lands, and basically uses all of its points on free mana-rocks. By my count the deck's points are:
- Mana Crypt (2 points)
- Mox Emerald (3 points)
- Mox Sapphire (3 points)
- Transmute Artifact (1 point)
The official Canadian Highlander Points List can be found here: https://canadianhighlander.wordpress.com/rules-the-points-list-and-deck-construction/
I have checked and checked and checked again, and for the life of me I cannot figure out why TappedOut would think I'm running two more points than I am. None of my other CanLander decks have encountered this problem.
I am very new to this site so maybe I've missed something, but if so I honestly do not know what. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I assume that they haven't kept the points list updated on this site. If you look through the archives of the points list Worldly Tutor was removed in June of last year and Hermit Druid was removed in October, both of which were 1 point before their removal. It looks like the points list that Tappedout is using is from sometime between May of 2017 and June of 2018 and hasn't been updated with the three changes since. Any decks that run Spellseeker will also have incorrect points, though they will be short a point not over like the two mentioned cards.

Since people are more likely to help if you make using the references easy.
I will check and let you know if I figure out the other points.
