Cool! I've saved a copy locally.

A couple of questions...

The Cards tiddler doesn't update automatically.  If I add a card, or change
a card's fields, then the "summary" page(s) should update automatically.
There is probably another plugin to do that (add tiddler names to an
UpdateTiddlers tiddler, for those who should be "autoupdated" after each
change to tiddlers with a tag in the UpdateTags tiddler).

Also, could I somehow "populate" the TW with csv file (or stream) that might
look like this:
{schema: amount, Cardname, Color,Type, Attack, Defense, Rarity)
4,RedCard1,Red,Creature,2,1,rare
4,RedCard2,Red,Creature,,,common
20,aLand,,Land,,,common

This CSV would create new tiddlers for Redcard1, Redcard2, aLand, Color,
Type, and then a last one (which could be preexisting, but needs to update)
Deck.

Regards,
-Reenen
