Note on the aliases:

• Crew, Cycling, ~Embalm~, Equip, ~Eternalize~ have no distinct symbol and will just be aliases for their activated ability type (this looks like a bullseye)
• Aftermath, Enchant, Improvise, and Kicker don't have distinct symbols either and will be aliases for their static ability type (it looks like a swirl)
• Afflict, Fabricate, and Prowess also don't have any yet and will be aliases for their triggered ability type (it looks like a refresh arrow in a clock)

A few more from going through Arena:

• [x] Escape
• [x] Adventure
• [x] Summoning Sickness

1. Some of the keywords in the first list don`t have an icon in the card view or you are putting a generic bullseye icon for them? (enchant, cycling, kicker, flash, equip, crew)

2. I couldn`t find anywhere in the arena those keywords - Improvise, Revolt and Fabricate. They are from the sets Aether Revolt and Kaladesh.

3. "The following have a generic bullseye currently: Crew, Cycling, Embalm, Equip, Eternalize" Embalm and Eternalize have icon in Arena

2. I couldn`t find anywhere in the arena those keywords - Improvise, Revolt and Fabricate. They are from the sets Aether Revolt and Kaladesh.

These sets was on Arena during the beta (and will propably come back one day like Amonkhet did recently).

[andrewgioia]

Some of the keywords in the first list don`t have an icon in the card view or you are putting a generic bullseye icon for them?

Yes for the abilities that have no symbols yet, they'll just be aliases for the generic symbol of that type. The parentheses in that list indicate this, but as an example Enchant has no distinct symbol yet so .ability-enchant will just be an alias for .ability-static.

Improvise, Revolt and Fabricate

@Steve-VE is right here, I included them anyway b/c Arena does have symbols for them so it's a little future proofing.

Embalm and Eternalize have icon in Arena

Thank you! Added to the list and I should have them done today and this v1.8.0 pushed up.

[StatiS888]

1. Thanks for clearing up the .static and .triggered meaning. Then these also need symbols:

2. I cross checked with my list and you are missing those 10 from your list riot, mutate, constellation, amass, addendum, afterlife, adapt, proliferate, adamant,devotion(has no difference for colors)

3. Are you going to make them in two colors - yellow for non-evergreen and white?

4. Flash is currently missing from the Arena but before it was using that symbol from here: https://magicarena.fandom.com/wiki/Abilities

[andrewgioia]

Wow thanks @StatiS888 I didn't realize there were so many others O_O.

A few of those look like the existing Guild symbols that we can reuse but there are some distinct ones and 1.8 is probably going to get bumped back a bit. I really appreciate you screenshotting these.

Are you going to make them in two colors - yellow for non-evergreen and white?

Yeah I can add a convenience class to colorize them that way. The yellow appears to be a gradient.

[StatiS888]

found one more - companion. It can only be seen if you start a game though.

[andrewgioia]

These are finally all drawn, hoping to get these in to the next version tomorrow 🤞

[andrewgioia]

@Steve-VE @StatiS888 these are all live now in 1.9, I think/hope this is everything but if we're still missing any symbols by all means create new issues and I can add them. Thanks for all your help!

[StatiS888]

I tried but couldn't find a way to colorize them, please help.

[andrewgioia]

Sorry about that @StatiS888 it looks like I forgot to include that in the main symbol update. v1.9.3 now has a class called .ms-mechanic that you can add to the set-specific ability symbols to apply that gold gradient that Arena has.
