Lookalikes & traps

Promo stamps and prerelease marks sit beside Innistrad Promos art. Confirm the promo set code rather than assuming booster-pack PISD. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set Innistrad Promos is.

Confirm after the icon

Bottom information line should show collector number + set code PISD (and usually a C/U/R/M rarity letter). On Innistrad Promos / Diregraf Ghoul, mismatch between listing title and PISD is the usual bait-and-switch.

How to identify Innistrad Promos cards

  1. 1

    Locate the Innistrad Promos set mark (PISD) before you trust the card name — reprints reuse names across products.

  2. 2

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

  3. 3

    Verify PISD on the bottom line; listings that only show the card name are where Innistrad Promos get mixed with siblings.

  4. 4

    If icon and PISD still disagree with a marketplace title, scan with Tappr rather than guessing from art.

Rarity by symbol color

Special product (promo): rarity color may still follow modern conventions when a symbol is present, but SKU/treatment beats draft-rarity folklore. Verify PISD and the collector number before comparing to a main-set printing of Innistrad Promos.

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.
