Tips after adding the bot

🛡️ Mod the bot
Run /mod otterlymtg_bot in your chat. Mod status is needed for antispam, raid protection, and announcing sub/resub messages.
⚙️ Configure your channel
Use !botsettings to view your current configuration. Set interval messages with !addplug and customise sub/resub messages.
💬 Custom commands
Add personalised commands instantly with !addcom !deck Check out my Moxfield deck!. They're saved in the cloud and work every stream.
🃏 Card lookup
Tell your viewers to type !card <name> to look up any card. Works with fuzzy search, so partial names are fine.
🏆 Run a trivia session
Type !trivia 5 to start a 5-round MTG trivia game. Questions are based on real card data and the leaderboard persists across streams.
❓ Troubleshooting
If the bot doesn't respond, make sure it's been modded. If it's modded but still not working, come to the home channel for help.
