===Icons=== [[File:Jin-Gitaxias.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Double-faced card with simplified triangular icons in the upper corners.]] Each face of a double-faced card has an icon to aid players in identifying the front from the back. The front face has a single white triangle pointed upward inside a black circle {{dfc|obverse}} to the left of the card name. The back face has a single white triangle pointed downward inside a black circle {{dfc|reverse}} on the right side of the card, where the [[mana cost]] would normally be printed. The release of ''[[The Brothers' War]]'' and ''[[Transformers]]'' saw R&D standardize the icons for all double-faced cards. Front faces now have an upward-pointing triangle and back faces use a downward-pointing triangle positioned on the right side of the [[title bar]].<ref>{{EzTumblr|https://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/715167225583140864|title=I completely understand the decision to standardize all the symbols on the TDFCs in MOM to the triangle/upside-down triangle.|April 20, 2023}}</ref> The change brings transforming DFCs in line with modal DFCs, which use similar symbols ({{dfc|front}} for front faces and {{dfc|back}} for back faces).<ref>{{EzTumblr|https://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/713529098259038208|title=Regarding DFC's, the night/day icons are flavourful and intuitive, but the other DFC icons I feel are not. |April 2, 2023}}</ref>
