Morningtide set symbol

Identify Morningtide by the unique set mark shown here (MOR). Older frames may place related marks differently, but the information line still carries the modern set code when present.

Lookalikes & traps

Binder piles mix Morningtide with adjacent Standard sets. Silhouette first, then MOR, before you trust a lot listing title. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set Morningtide is.

Confirm after the icon

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

How to identify Morningtide cards

  1. 1

    Start with the Morningtide glyph silhouette; art style alone will not separate this expansion product from guests and remasters.

  2. 2

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

  3. 3

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

  4. 4

    Finish with a Tappr scan when Morningtide / Scapeshift 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 Morningtide symbol. Mythic orange does not apply yet (Shards of Alara, 2008). Purple timeshifted is a Time Spiral-family exception, not a generic MOR 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.
