How rankings work

How rankings work on Collectrio

Crowdsourced Sleeve / Swap / Store and Train / Trade / Transfer values — contribute three ranks to unlock the board.

Two boards, two verb sets

On Cards, the live verbs are Sleeve, Swap, and Store. On GO, they are Train, Trade, and Transfer. Sleeve or Train ranks above a fair Swap or Trade, which ranks above Store or Transfer.

Cards and GO never mix into one leaderboard. A Cards name cannot beat a GO name, because they never share a trio.

Trio unlock

Submit one trio — three ranked choices on that board — to unlock the rest of the board for your session. You are not buying a price list. You are contributing comparisons so the board can grow a public Collectrio number as more people rank.

After one trio on a board, the rest of that board opens so you can browse ranked names and use the trade calculator once votes exist. The board grows with contributions; Collectrio does not invent live ranking counts here.

Not a scrape

The public number is an Elo-style score from user comparisons — the scale and recipe live on methodology — not a scrape of TCGPlayer, eBay, or Niantic. Rankings are community Sleeve / Swap / Store and Train / Trade / Transfer values.

Calculator share links

After a trio, the Cards calculator and GO calculator package the same board numbers. Quantity and the condition or luck modifier stay in the URL: NM / LP / MP on Cards, Plain / Lucky / Needs XL on GO. Open a shared link to inspect that package even before you rank on this device.

Abstract proxies only

Collectrio does not show official card scans, GO sprites, or binder photos. Marks on the site are abstract proxies: a letter, a set number or dex, a rarity chip. Identification is text.
