Lookalikes & traps

Draft-innovation products get filed next to premier sets in binders. Match the Foundations Jumpstart glyph and J25 before using Standard-completion math. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set Foundations Jumpstart is.

Confirm after the icon

Bottom information line should show collector number + set code J25 (and usually a C/U/R/M rarity letter). On Foundations Jumpstart / Scythecat Cub, mismatch between listing title and J25 is the usual bait-and-switch.

How to identify Foundations Jumpstart cards

  1. 1

    Start with the Foundations Jumpstart glyph silhouette; art style alone will not separate this draft_innovation product from guests and remasters.

  2. 2

    Read rarity from symbol color on Foundations Jumpstart: black common, silver uncommon, gold rare, orange mythic — foil sheen does not change it.

  3. 3

    Confirm set code J25 and the collector number on the information line under the text box.

  4. 4

    Finish with a Tappr scan when Foundations Jumpstart / Scythecat Cub appears under multiple set codes in the same lot.

Rarity by symbol color

Modern rarity colors on the Foundations Jumpstart symbol: black common (white only in rare one-set exceptions like Dominaria), silver uncommon, gold rare, orange/red-orange mythic. Foil, showcase, and borderless treatments keep the same rarity color — they change finish/frame, not the C/U/R/M letter.

Common Black (white in rare exceptions)
Uncommon Silver symbol
Rare Gold symbol
Mythic Rare Orange / bronze (post-Alara)

Legend shows the modern post-Exodus palette. Pre-Exodus sets and special rarities (for example Time Spiral purple timeshifted) follow the rarity reading above — not this swatch row alone.
