Whats all that extra stuff in white down at the bottom of the card?
Other than the artists’ names, which are there to keep them happy and encourage them to draw more pictures for us, that line contains information to assist those trying to collect entire sets or to trade cards with others. Before the artist name is the abbreviation of the set the card came from: DE = Diamond Edition, RoB = Reign of Blood, and so on. This abbreviation is left off when a card is not new to a set. (The semi-sorted part of Clan Decks often contains cards reprinted from earlier sets to make the deck more playable right from the box.) After the copyright date is the card’s sequence number and the total number of new cards and Strongholds in that set, separated by a rarity symbol. Again, cards that are not truly new in a set will not have a sequence number (though they’ll still have a symbol).
