"Huntmaster of the Fells" unable to be found. #16

mtg> card Huntmaster of the Fells
Unable to find card data.

I'm guessing this has to do with Huntmaster being a double card?

Ah shoot. Flip cards and double sided cards used to work, but it looks like gatherer.wizards.com changed the formatting on its website recently which breaks the scraper for double sided cards.

Just discovered http://mtgjson.com/ (maybe it didn't exist when I started this? I looked for something like that and couldn't find it back then). That might be better than scraping gatherer.

I agree, mtgjson seems like the best way to go. Of course, that's a pretty big architecture change. We could always fix scraping gatherer (which I assume is possible), and then make a new issue to switch to mtgjson.

Yeah. It might be nice to support using both backends if it doesn't end up being too much bother.
