It seems like every new set 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Magic: The Gathering releases nowadays has a new type of foiling process in it, and here's ꦅa comprehensive list of every type of foiling ever printed. Foil cards a๊re considered Magic’s premium cards and will have a shiny, foil finish. These cards are much rarer than most other Magic cards.

The various types of foiling can generally be divided into evergreen foils, ones that Magic has🎃 used multiple times across multiple sets, and set-specific foils, ones that have exclusiv💙ely been used for just one set or perhaps limited to a specific plane.

Evergreen Foils - Pre-Modern Foil

The Standard Foil For Years

First released into packs during Urza’s Legacy, this type of foil would last all the way up to Sco❀urge. The first widely available foil card was a promotional card for Urza’s Saga called Lightning Dragon, wh✱ich was distributed at Urza’s Saga prerelease events. Because of the way they are printed, lines can sometimes appear in the foil, which may appear to be damaged but are normal.

At the time, these foil cards were exceptionally rare, much rarer tha🎀n drop rates that players would find today. These types of foils have💎 a shooting star icon on the bottom left-hand corner of the card, making them unique from every other type of foil.

Traditional Foil

Find Them In Packs!

Picking up from where the Pre-Modern foils left off, the current most popular foiling p🥂rocess has run from Eighth Edition to now. These cards feature a ‘rainbow effect,’ covering the entire card with a metallic sheen.

While Traditional foils are considered the same foils y♎ou can open in packs today, there have been several iterations of this process. This has led to some variation in foils over the years, most 💟notably in the sets Future Sight, Lorwyn, and Shadowmoor, which had darker foils than other sets.

From The Vault Foil

A Limited-Edition Exclusive

This special series of cards featured a special foiling process unique to the set. Cards from any From the Vault sets are more reflective than Traditional foils and have a varnish finish, making them feel almost slippery to the touch as well as making them weigh more than the normal foi🔯l Magic card.

From the Vault was a limited set of products that sought to highlight powerf🐼ul cards or show off a particular theme. The downside to these cards is that they are particularly vulnerable to curling, the pr🐭ocess of a foil card’s edges bending so that it is no longer flat.

Etched Foil

Feel The Foil

Originally revealed in Commander Legends packs, the Etched foil cards are a different approach to the foiling process🌠 that highlights specific sections of a card. Cards with an etched foiling appear almost grainy and feel textured to the touch.

Etched foil cards use a metallic paint to🧸 achieve their foil look, which is very visible on the border of cards and is used to selectively enhance parts of the artwork. This type of foiling includes Gold Etched foiling from the Secret Lair Drop Series: MSCHF, which is functionally similar but with a gold tint to them.

Textured Foil

Your Cards Come To Life

Textured foil cards came about to Magic through the Double Masters 2022 set as a new way to make some of the most powerful cards in the set more valuable to players and collectors. These foil cards bring an embossed effect to cards, giving them the aไppearance that they are moving as the art shifts perspective.

Since their release, Textured foil💟s have been released in other sets like Dominaria United, with legendary creatures getting the treatment, and they returned in Commander Masters. These cards are visibly etched, with raised lines in the art that are visib🌠le even at a distance.

Set-Specific Foils - Double-rainbow Foil

What Does It Mean?

An incredibly rare type of foiling, the Double-rainbow foil is a type that is only available in The Brothers’ War set. More specifically, only on serialized versions of theℱ schematic printin🔯gs of cards, alternate art printings with 🌳artwork that appears to show the schematics of how some of Magic’s most powerful artifacts are made. Cards with the Double-rainbow foiling process are only available in Collector Boosters and, because of the nature of serialized cards, are only found on a fixed number of cards.

Confetti Foil

Bonus Sheet Excellence

Confetti Foils are a special type of foiling process that so far is exclusive to Wilds of Eldraine. Specifically, they are only on the Japanese bཧorderl🦄ess anime cards that are included on the Enchanting Tales bonus sheet.

These cards hꦇave the tell-tale rainbow foiling process, much like other foil cards, but with tons of little speckles to give the card a confetti effect. These cards are exceptionally rare, appearing in less than 3% of Collector Booster packs. There's a slightly higher chance of opening a mythic rare card with this foiling process than a regular rare, thanks to the higher number of mythic rares on the bonus sheet.

Galaxy Foil

Take Your Cards To The Stars

From the depths of deep space comes the Galaxy ཧfoil printing of the Unfinity set🃏. This unique foiling process transports players to the stars with a scattered starburst pattern embedded into the foil sheen.

This type of foil bears a striking resemblance to classic Pokemon card foiling, which helped make it a very popular style among fans. As of this writing, the Unfinity set is the only set to featur🦋e this style of foil, making it highly collectible.

Gilded Foil

Everything Is Better With Gold

For players looking for a little extra pizzazz to their decks, Streets of New Capenna invited players to cha💙se after Gilded foil cards. This type of foiling features a golden frame as well as three-dimensional embossing that highlights a traditional foil card’s normal shine.

Cards with Gilded foiling work with the special art deco designs unique to New Capenna, and can only be found on cards with three🐈 colors. This foiling is exclusive to the Streets of New Capenna set, with the sole exception being a Secret Lair version of Atraxa, Praetor’s Voice.

Halo Foil

Reserved exclusively for Multiversal Legends cards from March of the Machine and cards from 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:March of the Machine: The Aftermath, these foils can only be found in Coll😼ectorꦛ Boosters from the sets.

Inspired by the enigmatic and magical Halo substance made from the essences of angels on New Capenna, it became the natural💮 anthesis of New Phyrexia and the phyresis process. This type of foil features a swirling, almost liquid-like effect, mimicking the magical substance it draws inspiration from.
