Lookalikes & traps

Remasters, Special Guests, and Commander decks reprint Commander Masters / Deflecting Swat under other codes — matching art is not proof of CMM. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set Commander Masters is.

Confirm after the icon

Bottom information line should show collector number + set code CMM (and usually a C/U/R/M rarity letter). On Commander Masters / Deflecting Swat, mismatch between listing title and CMM is the usual bait-and-switch.

How to identify Commander Masters cards

  1. 1

    Find the expansion symbol on the type line and match it to the Commander Masters icon on this page (CMM).

  2. 2

    Use symbol color for draft rarity on CMM, then treat showcase/borderless as a separate finish check.

  3. 3

    Cross-check CMM + collector number so Commander Masters / Deflecting Swat is not priced under the wrong product line.

  4. 4

Rarity by symbol color

Modern rarity colors on the Commander Masters 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.
