Lookalikes & traps
Draft-innovation products get filed next to premier sets in binders. Match the Jumpstart glyph and JMP before using Standard-completion math. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set Jumpstart is.
Confirm after the icon
Bottom information line should show collector number + set code JMP (and usually a C/U/R/M rarity letter). On Jumpstart / Rhystic Study, mismatch between listing title and JMP is the usual bait-and-switch.
How to identify Jumpstart cards
- 1
Find the expansion symbol on the type line and match it to the Jumpstart icon on this page (JMP).
- 2
Use symbol color for draft rarity on JMP, then treat showcase/borderless as a separate finish check.
- 3
Cross-check JMP + collector number so Jumpstart / Rhystic Study is not priced under the wrong product line.

Rarity by symbol color
Modern rarity colors on the 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.
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.
