How to Filter MTG Cards for the Perfect Purchase

A Guide to the Most Varied MTG Product Search Filters.

Magic: The Gathering is a popular trading card game with a vast array of card options. With so many cards available, it can be difficult to find the perfect one for your collection or deck. Fortunately, we have worked hard to include the largest variety of search filters available of any MTG Singles online shop to help you narrow down your options and find the right MTG cards for you. 

Using these filters in combination can help you find the perfect card for your deck. For instance, if you’re building a red-green creature deck, you can use the “Card Type” filter to search for creature cards and the “Color Identity” filter to search for red and green cards. Similarly, if you’re looking for a specific card that has been reprinted, you can use the “Reprint” filter to narrow down your search.

We want to make your shopping experience as easy and efficient as possible. By using these filters, you’ll be able to quickly find the cards you’re looking for, whether it’s a classic like Black Lotus, or a newer card like Oko, Thief of Crowns.

Here is a breakdown of each of the filtering options in the shop.

Artist: If you have a favourite artist who you like to collect, this filter allows you to view only the cards they have illustrated. Simply select the artist’s name from the list of options, and all the cards illustrated by that artist will be displayed.

Number: This filter allows you to view cards with a specific card number. For example, if you’re searching for a specific card from a set, you can find it by searching for its card number. Searching by number will also enable you to identify variants within the same set.

Color Identity: Magic: The Gathering has five colors of magic – white, blue, black, red, and green. This filter allows you to view only cards with a specific colour identity, making it easier to find cards that fit into your preferred colour scheme. Cards can also be filtered across multiple colours enabling you to match up multi-colour solutions more easily. Cards with no colour are denoted with the “Colourless” label.

Card Finish: MTG cards come in three finishes: Foil, Nonfoil, and Etched. If you’re looking for a specific finish for your collection or deck, use this filter to narrow down your options.

Card Type: This filter allows you to view cards of a specific type, such as creature, enchantment, or artifact. If you’re building a deck with a specific strategy in mind, use this filter to find cards that fit your strategy.

Subtypes: This filter allows you to view cards with a specific subtype, such as goblin or zombie. If you’re looking for cards with a particular creature type, use this filter to narrow down your options. This is especially useful when you’re trying to create that magical unicorn deck.

Converted Mana Cost: This filter allows you to view cards with a specific converted mana cost. This can be useful if you’re looking for cards that fit into a particular mana curve or if you’re searching for cards with a specific power level.

Promotional: This filter allows you to view cards that have been released as promotional items. If you’re looking for a specific promotional card, use this filter to find it.

Rarity: Magic: The Gathering has four levels of rarity: Common, Uncommon, Rare, and Mythic Rare. This filter allows you to view cards of a specific rarity. Keep in mind that rarity also includes common cards.

Card Frame: This filter allows you to view cards with a specific frame style, such as Standard, Borderless, Full Art, Extended Art, and more. If you’re looking for a specific type of card frame, use this filter to find it.

Reprint: This filter allows you to view cards that have been reprinted in a different set. If you’re looking for a specific version of a card, use this filter to find it.

Card Abilities: This filter allows you to view cards with specific abilities, such as flying or first strike. If you’re looking for cards with specific abilities for your deck, use this filter to narrow down your options.

Reserved: This filter allows you to view cards that are on the MTG Reserved list.

In addition to filtering by reprint, players can also look for specific cards that are reserved. This means that these cards are not eligible for use in certain tournament formats, as designated by the official rules. Players looking for more competitive options may find it useful to filter for non-reserved cards.

Another attribute to consider when searching for your desired Magic: The Gathering cards is border color. The border of a card can come in different colors, including black, silver, and white. Depending on the edition or set, the border color can be used to identify the rarity of the card or the status of the card. Some players may prefer the classic black border, while others may want to look for a specific border color to match the aesthetic of their deck.

Language is also a factor to consider when searching for MTG cards. The game is published in multiple languages, so players may want to look for cards in their native language or a language they are comfortable reading in.

Finally, players can filter by supertypes, brand, and even promotional status. Supertypes refer to overarching categories such as Legendary, Snow, or Basic. Brands include Magic: The Gathering, Arena, and Chronicles, to name a few. Promotional status refers to cards that have been specially printed for events or as part of special sets.

In conclusion, with these many attributes to filter by, players can fine-tune their MTG card search and find exactly what they are looking for. Whether you are looking for a specific card type, color identity, or rarity, these filters make it easy to find the right MTG cards for you. To make the most of these filters and find the cards you need for your next tournament or casual game, be sure to check out a reputable online MTG shop.
