'''''Fourth Edition (4th Edition)''''' is a ''[[Magic]]'' [[core set]] that was released in April 1995. It is a [[reprint set]]. | |||
==Set details== | ==Set details== | ||
To create ''Fourth Edition'', 51 cards were removed from ''[[Revised Edition]]'', and 122 cards from ''[[Arabian Nights]], [[Antiquities]], [[Legends]]'', and ''[[The Dark]]'' were added. ''Fourth Edition'' was the first set to have [[basic land]]s printed on a separate [[print sheet]]. This freed up room on the common and uncommon card sheets to include more spells, and also allowed boosters to be packaged without lands. It was also the first set to have the same number of commons, uncommons, and rares, a practice which continued for large [https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Set#Expansions expansion] sets until the release of ''[[Mirrodin]]''. | |||
At the time of printing, Wizards policy was that core sets had white borders, but also that a card could not be put into a white-bordered set without first appearing in a black-bordered set in that language. To make ''Fourth Edition'' sets uniform, ''[[Renaissance]]'' sets were printed in German, Italian, and French to create black bordered versions of cards not previously available in those languages. These printings meant ''Fourth Edition'' cards in English, French, German, Italian could be printed exclusively with white borders. Japanese, traditional Chinese, Korean, Spanish, and Portuguese ''Fourth Edition'' cards were printed with black borders. However, after the black bordered versions were printed, the set was almost immediately reprinted with white borders in Japanese, Spanish, and Portuguese. | |||
The print run is estimated at 500 million cards. | [[File:T 2nd.svg|thumb|The second tap symbol.]] | ||

Fourth Edition (4th Edition) is a Magic core set that was released in April 1995. It is a reprint set.
Set details
To create Fourth Edition, 51 cards were removed from Revised Edition, and 122 cards from Arabian Nights, Antiquities, Legends, and The Dark were added. Fourth Edition was the first set to have basic lands printed on a separate print sheet. This freed up room on the common and uncommon card sheets to include more spells, and also allowed boosters to be packaged without lands. It was also the first set to have the same number of commons, uncommons, and rares, a practice which continued for large expansion sets until the release of Mirrodin.
At the time of printing, Wizards policy was that core sets had white borders, but also that a card could not be put into a white-bordered set without first appearing in a black-bordered set in that language. To make Fourth Edition sets uniform, Renaissance sets were printed in German, Italian, and French to create black bordered versions of cards not previously available in those languages. These printings meant Fourth Edition cards in English, French, German, Italian could be printed exclusively with white borders. Japanese, traditional Chinese, Korean, Spanish, and Portuguese Fourth Edition cards were printed with black borders. However, after the black bordered versions were printed, the set was almost immediately reprinted with white borders in Japanese, Spanish, and Portuguese.
- A copyright notice dated 1995 is printed on the bottom of the cards.
- The beveled frame missing from Revised was restored. The colors were also much more saturated.
- A new white mana symbol (
) was introduced.[2] - The other mana symbols were redesigned as well, but less noticeably. Black's skull became more elongated, blue's water drop became slimmer and more symmetrical, red's fireball lost the flame licks coming off of it, and green's tree received different branches and a less thick base.*The tap symbol changed to a curved arrow symbol, with a black rectangle representing the tapping card behind it.[3]
- An Alternate Fourth Edition run was printed by the United States Playing Card Corporation in Cincinnati. Due to a dispute between the two companies, the cards were never officially published.[4][5]
Marketing
Cards were available from May 3, 1995 well past the end of the run in April 1997.[6] The print run is estimated at 500 million cards. The cards were sold in 60-card starter decks and 15-card boosters. Boosters included 1 rare, 3 uncommons, and 11 commons. Fourth Edition was the first set with booster packs with foil wrappers and the first with artwork on the wrappers (Brass Man, Hurloon Minotaur, Mana Vault, Mesa Pegasus, and Spirit Link). Starters included 3 rares, 9 uncommons, 26 commons, and 22 land. The package of the starter decks displayed the five mana symbols instead of the five colored stones on previous versions. The set was supplemented with a special Gift Box. The Fourth Edition Gift Box included two starter decks, 30 glass counters, a flannel bag for storing the counters, an illustrated rulebook, and a card collectors' checklist.
Rules changes
- The rules concerning fast effects and the batch were solidified, as well as those for phases, activation costs, targets, and damage prevention.[7]
Cycles
Fourth Edition has 6 cycles, one of which is a 4 card cycle, and 15 mirrored pairs.
