This is a cool idea, I like this a lot. I also like the suggested overlays you put together.
Could you elaborate a bit on "booster fun"? Are there any others you can think of in addition to that set of 3?
boosterfun
cards are the "extended art" or "showcase" or "borderless" variants that are found in the collector boosters. While they are technically part of the same edition, most stores have a separate entry for them
I can only think of a "+" variant that sometimes is used for the ultimate master box toppers an the planeswalker decks, as well as "ITA" to indicate the Italian-only legends and the dark editions (but maybe these two should be separate entries entirely)
@kodabb got it, I didn't realize "booster fun" was something Wizards uses! Here's the current list with a suggested symbol:
Name | Class | Symbol | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Booster Fun | .boosterfun |
smile? | Borderless, extended art, showcase variants |
Promo Pack | .promopack |
planeswalker | Promo pack variant with gold Planeswalker stamp |
Prerelease Promo | .prerelease |
star | Prerelease promo variant |
Box Toppers | .boxtopper |
box | Are these unique variants without a set code? |
Non-English Print | .language |
globe? | Globe could be too small to identify, possibly translate |
There is a set symbol in Keyrune for Italian Renaissance (https://keyrune.andrewgioia.com/icons.html?icon=xren), but I do think having a foreign-language overlay like this could be useful as well.
This is a good list.
A couple of points:
hi, was there any update to this side project? :)
Another good layer would be having the Etched printing made in a different way. It should probably be an overlay like the foil effect, since it's just a different finish.
Hi, with all the new promo types using the same set symbol, it would be nice if it was possible to specify a tag to modify the default set icon and append a small letter or symbol. In this way for example one could understand that a card edition is the prerelease one and not the main edition.
I see it used on mkm and a few other sites, i thought it would be nice to have a configuration option to add it.
Example with a default and prerelease (star)
Example with default, promo pack (pw symbol), prerelease (star), boosterfun (C)
they don't have to be these symbol necessarily, as long as it's something users can relate to I hope this feature will be considered a future release, thanks
