Shadowmoor Promos set symbol

Lookalikes & traps

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

Confirm after the icon

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

How to identify Shadowmoor Promos cards

  1. 1

    Start with the Shadowmoor Promos glyph silhouette; art style alone will not separate this promo product from guests and remasters.

  2. 2

    Apply Exodus-era color rules only: no mythic orange on PSHM cards from 2008.

  3. 3

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

  4. 4

    Finish with a Tappr scan when Shadowmoor Promos appears under multiple set codes in the same lot.

Rarity by symbol color

Exodus-through-pre-mythic rules: black common, silver uncommon, gold rare on the Shadowmoor Promos symbol. Mythic orange does not apply yet (Shards of Alara, 2008). Purple timeshifted is a Time Spiral-family exception, not a generic PSHM rule.

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.
