Unhinged

Unhinged is a booster-only, tournament-prohibited Magic set, released on 20th November, 2004. It was the follow-up to Unglued, and as such isn’t to be considered an expansion of the official game. Only the Unhinged basic lands are tournament legal.

Unhinged included 135 silver-bordered cards and 5 black-bordered cards (the basic lands), all of which had foil versions which occur in a similar rate to “normal” Magic Sets. The set boasts many jokes, and has even set a precedent or two of its own for tournament-worthy Magic. Many cards are references to previous cards. The set is only available in English due to the difficulty of translating it.

Foil cards from Unhinged had extra jokes thrown in on the foil layer. One card, called Super Secret Tech, only exists as a foil rare card and technically affects the foil card concept as a whole. Its rarity is supposedly ten times more common than that of other Unhinged foil rare cards. Some of the foil cards have slight modifications and differences in the artwork from the non-foil versions.
