The watermarks
The block describes the conflict between two major factions - one being Mirrodin, and the other being the invading forces of Phyrexia. Cards aligned with these two factions are watermarked.[7] The ratio of Phyrexian to Mirran cards significantly changes in favor of Phyrexia with the procession of the sets.[8][9][10]
