Spotting what set your Magic The Gathering card is from is super easy once you know where to look! Just glance at the right side of the card, right between the card's art and its stats. You'll find a small symbol there, unique to each set the card belongs to. If you're still stumped, the card's collector number and set name are typically printed at the bottom too. Trust me, once you get the hang of identifying these, you'll be a pro in no time!

Just Google the card name and check the images tab. Works every time. Why bother memorizing symbols?

Honestly, the symbols confuse me more than they help. I just use an app that scans my cards and tells me everything about them, including the set. Way easier than squinting at tiny symbols.
