Run your Commander community on Playgroup Live

Playgroup Live is a free browser-based platform for online MTG Commander communities that combines gameplay, ELO leaderboards, Playscore leagues, Discord integration, and a public API in one place. No spreadsheets. No webcams. No downloads.

Create a playgroup, invite your members, and let the platform handle the rest. Stats, leaderboards, leagues, and game nights in one place.

Stop managing spreadsheets

Tracking stats across Google Sheets is tedious and error-prone. Playgroup Live records every game automatically and computes ELO, win rates, and deck performance.

One platform instead of five

No more stitching together SpellBot + SpellTable + spreadsheets + Discord + a tracking app. Gameplay, voice, stats, and leagues run in one place.

Keep players coming back

Leagues, achievements, and leaderboards create a progression loop that drives engagement without extra admin work from you.

Automatic Stats

Every game tracked, every stat computed

Every game result flows into ELO ratings, per-deck analytics, and community leaderboards automatically. No one types anything into a spreadsheet. The data is just there.

  • ELO leaderboards (global + per-league)
  • Per-deck win rates, power estimates, arch-enemies
  • Achievement system with tiers and XP
  • Year-end Rewind reports for the whole community
Game Results

Games that record themselves

When a game ends, results are captured automatically. Damage dealt, kills, commander damage, game length. No one needs to type anything into a spreadsheet.

  • Full game timeline with every event
  • Per-player damage breakdown
  • Commander damage tracking
  • Deck performance history builds over time

Your Community Dashboard

A stats page for your entire community

Every playgroup gets a dashboard showing activity trends, top performers, most-played commanders, and game frequency. Share it with your community or keep it private.

Deck Building Intelligence

Help your members build better decks

Every game played in your community generates Card Insights for each member. The platform tracks every card drawn, cast, and won with across real games, then surfaces what to cut and what to keep. Your members get personalized deck building advice just by playing.

Card Insights showing per-card win rate impact, dead draws, and cast-on-curve analysis for a Commander deck
Dead draw detection Cards a member draws but rarely casts. If a card sits in hand across multiple games, the data shows it.
Win rate impact per card See how win rate changes when a specific card hits the battlefield versus when it does not.
Cast-on-curve analysis Measures how often non-land cards land on the turn their mana cost suggests. A low score points to ramp or curve problems.
Best opening hand cards Win rates broken down by which cards were in the opening seven, so members know what to keep on a mulligan.

Frequently Asked
Is Playgroup Live free for communities?
Yes. Creating a playgroup, inviting members, playing games, and tracking stats are all free. Every playgroup gets one free Playscore league. Additional leagues are available with any subscriber in the playgroup.
How many players can our community have?
There is no member limit on a playgroup. Each game session supports 2 to 6 players per pod.
Can we run multiple leagues at once?
Yes. Each playgroup gets one free Playscore league. If any member in the playgroup has an active subscription, you can create unlimited leagues with different scoring rules.
Does the Discord bot work with our existing setup?
Yes. The bot adds slash commands to your existing Discord server. It does not replace any bots you already use. Install it, pick a channel for notifications, and it runs alongside everything else.
Can members import decks from Archidekt and Moxfield?
Yes. Members can paste a plain-text decklist or import directly from an Archidekt or Moxfield URL. Decks are stored on Playgroup.gg so members are not dependent on third-party sites staying online.
What happens to our stats if we stop using Playgroup Live?
Your data stays on Playgroup.gg. ELO ratings, game history, deck stats, and achievements are all tied to your playgroup account. You can come back any time and pick up where you left off.
Do you offer custom development for communities?
Yes. If your community has specific needs, we build custom integrations. Our Discord bot is an example of community-driven development. Contact us to discuss what you need.
How do we get started?
Create a free account on Playgroup.gg, create a playgroup, and share the invite link with your members. That is it. Members can start playing on Playgroup Live immediately.
Can we use Playgroup Live alongside SpellTable or TTS?
Yes. Some communities use Playgroup Live for some sessions and other tools for others. All games played on Playgroup Live count toward your community stats regardless of what else your members use.
Do our members have to use the stats and league features?
No. Stats are recorded automatically in the background, but no one is required to look at them. Members can use Playgroup Live purely as a virtual tabletop and ignore leaderboards, leagues, and achievements entirely. The data is there if you want it, invisible if you do not.
Is there a public API?
Yes. Playgroup.gg has a public REST API for building custom integrations. Members can generate API keys in their account settings. Documentation is available here.
