A set is any release of Magic cards, designed for use together.
Levels of sets
Starter-level sets
Starter-level sets are sets that are of the lowest level of Magic thematic and mechanical complexity. Starter-level sets are aimed to introduce, and teach, prospective and newer players to the game.
Advanced-level sets
Advanced-level sets are core sets of the game.
Expert-level sets
Expert-level sets are sets that are generally of the highest level of Magic thematic and mechanical complexity. Expert-level sets are all expansion sets.
Types of sets
Core sets
Core sets form the base set of cards for tournament play and rotations. With exception of the Alpha, all core sets through 10th Edition consisted solely of reprinted cards; as of Magic 2010 featured new cards beside reprints.
Expansion sets
Expansion sets, or expansions, are subsets of sets that are often released as part of blocks, with large expansions and small expansions, and with a storyline.
Usually, a block, which is characterized and differentiated by its storyline, themes, and mechanics, comprises three expansion sets, one large expansion and two small expansions; but, there are variations to this organically developed model.[1]
Large expansions
A large expansion is a set that contains more than 200 cards (recently, the typical number has sat right near 230-35) and introduces the themes, story, and mechanics for the block named after it. Typically, within a block, the first set is a large expansion, and the two following sets are small expansions that expand upon themes and mechanics introduced in the large expansion. Basic lands are often, but not always, printed in large expansions.[note 1]
Some exceptions exist: The Lorwyn/Shadowmoor block is divided into four sets instead of three, and has two large sets (Lorwyn and Shadowmoor) each followed by a corresponding small set (Morningtide and Eventide, respectively). Rise of the Eldrazi, the third set in the Zendikar block, is a large expansion and is essentially a complete mechanical disconnect from its two preceding sets, dropping Zendikar and Worldwake themes like landfall, allies and traps in favor of new themes like level-up creatures and defenders.
Small expansions
Small expansions are expansions that contain less than 200 cards, usually 150 or so cards, and build upon the storyline, themes, and mechanics of a given block in which it is featured and that are established in the large expansion(s). New themes and mechanics may be introduced, however.
More often than not, small expansions are the second and third sets of a three-expansion block and do not feature basic lands; however, the "large expansion / small expansion / small expansion" model is not a rule, and has previously been deviated from.[note 2]
Un-sets
Un-sets are non-tournament-legal mock sets with a "fun" or "joke" theme.

Notes
- ↑ Gatecrash is a large expansion but no basic lands are printed in the expansion set; rather, the basic lands that would be printed in the expansion set are printed in the preceding expansion set, Return to Ravnica, which itself is a large expansion.
- ↑ Rise of the Eldrazi and Avacyn Restored are the third expansion sets in their respective blocks but, being "reboots" of the respective block thus far, they are large expansions.
