Casters,
While official MetaZoo updates were light this week, the biggest news came from the community itself. MetaZooNews.com has undergone its most ambitious overhaul yet, rolling out new features, tools, and resources that make it the definitive hub for players, collectors, and creators.
Major Upgrade: Card Database
At the heart of the upgrade is a completely rebuilt MetaZoo Card Database—custom-coded from the ground up to serve both competitive and collecting communities.
Every card from both the Base Set and Torrential Tides has been manually entered to ensure accuracy, with a new interface offering Card View, List View, and Checklist View. Collectors can now mark cards they own, have that progress automatically saved in their browser, and even print a clean checklist for tracking physical collections.
The search and filter options are unmatched in the MetaZoo world. Users can sort by:
We take great pride in what we have created and hope it serves you, the reader, and our community well.
Spotlighting the Community’s Creators
MetaZoo thrives on community creativity, and the new Featured YouTuber section brings that spirit front and center. This dedicated showcase highlights some of the best voices in the MetaZoo content scene, each with an embedded video, quick channel link, and even a Subscribe button right on the MetaZoo News website.
Current (as of this publication) YouTubers include:
MetaZooNews, ZelesTCG, Bunny Man Productions, Turmentic, MetaZoo Maniac, TMX Comics, MetaZoo Menace, DPD19, Crispy1992, Jackalope Club and Layered Worlds.
The list will continue to grow, and any YouTuber producing MetaZoo-related content is encouraged to reach out to be featured!
A Better Resource Center for the Community
The redesigned Resources Tab now functions as a one-stop hub for everything a Caster might need. Visitors can easily access:
Each link is clearly labeled and designed to guide both newcomers and veterans to the most helpful, community-driven tools available.
Introducing the MetaZoo Retailers Page
Perhaps the most important addition is the MetaZoo Retailers page—an initiative created to directly support stores, streamers, and sellers who continue to make MetaZoo accessible to the community.
The list currently includes:
NorthernPoke (Affiliate Link + Code MZNEWS for 5% off), Jackalope Club, MetaZooCrew, Kaiju Studios, HiveMind Collectibles, Stomping Grounds LGS, IHC Collectibles, and DPD19.
This growing list is open to all legitimate sellers—whether they run an online store, eBay shop, or livestream on Whatnot. The goal is simple: to help players find product and support trustworthy sellers during a time when MetaZoo isn’t yet widely stocked in local game stores.
A Growing Network Built by Casters, for Casters
Each new feature on MetaZooNews.com was created with a single purpose: to strengthen the MetaZoo community. The redesigned database helps collectors stay organized, the retailer listings make it easier to find product, and the creator showcases give visibility to the people producing great content every week.
Together, these updates turn MetaZoo News into more than a news outlet; it’s becoming a central meeting place for players, collectors, and fans who want to keep the game alive and growing and we sincerely thank YOU for being part of it!
