Been away from MtG for a few years and come back to this confusion around different types of boosters.

Can anyone tell me which cards in the following list can only be found in Collector Boosters ? Is it just the retro frame cards ?

It's super simple, not confusing at all...

I mean, it's still pretty simple if you don't give a fuck about the 82 variants, because once there's a million different versions of bling it isn't even bling anymore.

What's the difference between extended art and borderless ?
Click to expand...
Counterspell is an example of Borderless, where the art is all around, and muted behind the textbox but still present.
Unmarked Grave is an Example of Extended Art, where they basically just cut out the borders on the left and right of the art to show more of the original piece.

How are games looking nowadays with all these different borders and alt card frames? Is it just going to look fucking stupid when everyone is back from Covid?

People playing will use normal cards. No sense in paying a premium for some fancy extended art foil that curls like pringles when you can get a perfectly normal rare-slash-mythic for half the price or even less. That shit is for collectors/speculators/trust fund babies.

I recall someone did the math in January and to buy each card printed last year was like $8,000.

This ^^ I keeping hearing how people like to "bling out" their decks, but I've never actually seen it. Our version of "bling" is using the OG printing of a card /shrug

I am really looking forward to STG modern tournaments,

I'm just tired of everything being standard and some variation of Rogue/Cleave/monowhite

I thought Strixhaven was going to be a bad draft set but it's actually one of the best in a while.
