Special

A Magic card may have the special rarity.

These are marked as common but have an "S" instead of a "C" in the information below the text box. Like basic lands, cards with this rarity are always available to you, whether you drafted it or not.

The special rarity was formally introduced for The Prismatic Piper in Commander Legends. So far, this is the only regular card with this rarity.

The S rarity is also present on cards in Kaladesh Inventions, Amonkhet Invocations, and Ultimate Masters/Ultimate Box Toppers, but this signifies that they are of a higher rarity than mythic rare.
