Searching by investigator is more difficult now for investigators with multiple releases

[danharel]

First, I'd like to just say that I love the new UI for the "Cards used" search:

It looks very elegant and clean.

However this update has actually had the unintended consequence of making it harder to search in the following way. Previously, if you typed in e.g. "Dexter Drake", it would give you 2 results in the dropdown, both of which appearing identical, both of which returning the same results¹. However, now, these 2 results are distinct and thus return distinct results. Example:

First Dexter:

Second Dexter:

As you can see, they return completely different decks, even though the 2 versions are functionally identical. Now if a user wants to search for decks that use Dexter Drake, they need to perform 2 separate searches. This also loses the ability to sort the two sets of decks against each other (e.g. a user can sort by Popularity within a version, but would be unable to tell which is the most popular between the 2 sets).

This also applies to Silas Bank and Gloria (though there are no Drowned City Gloria decks yet, so that one doesn't matter as much). I'm not sure if there are other examples.

Worth noting, this thankfully does not apply to Revised Core Set cards. Despite them similarly being rereleased with functionally identical versions, the search does unify them under the original version

¹ I'm actually not certain that this was the previous behavior. Either way though, the current behavior should be unified
