Lookalikes & traps

Masterpiece / premium sheets reuse famous characters. Treat MPS as its own SKU — never 1:1 with the main-set printing of Kaladesh Inventions. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set Kaladesh Inventions is.

Confirm after the icon

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

How to identify Kaladesh Inventions cards

  1. 1

    Find the expansion symbol on the type line and match it to the Kaladesh Inventions icon on this page (MPS).

  2. 2

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

  3. 3

    Cross-check MPS + collector number so Kaladesh Inventions is not priced under the wrong product line.

  4. 4

Rarity by symbol color

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

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.
