===Foil-etched=== ''[[Commander Legends]]'' introduced the "foil-etched" treatment. These cards use a brand-new foiling process that looks different from previous foils.<ref name="Sneak Peek">{{DailyRef|feature/sneak-peek-commander-legends-2020-08-22|A Sneak Peek at ''Commander Legends''|[[Gavin Verhey]]|August 22, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{TwitterRef|GavinVerhey|1297296601283665920|author=[[Gavin Verhey]]|title=Commander Legends has a brand new kind of foiling: foil etched! (Not etched foil.)|date=August 22, 2020}}</ref> From that moment on, the regular foil was called "Traditional" foil. Foil-etched is sparkling shiny when touched by light. It doesn't make use of a foil laminate but instead uses metallic paint or varnish. It doesn't cover the whole card but only highlights specific parts. The foil-etching process presents an interesting twist when dealing with older cards in ''[[Modern Horizons 2]]''.<ref>{{DailyRef|feature/booster-fun-modern-horizons-2-2021-05-21|Booster Fun of ''Modern Horizons 2''|[[Clayton Kroh]]|May 21, 2021}}</ref> In the early days of ''Magic'', Wizards of the Coast didn't have custom WUP treatments for artwork, so on foil-etched [[retro frame]] cards, the foil effects don't show inside the art box itself. ====Gold foil-etched==== ''[[Secret Lair Drop Series: MSCHF]]'' featured cards that were "Gold Foil Etched". It comes with a shiny and glittery finish where some of the detailing is etched into the card itself.
