Hi again, remember, new to mtg and imtg :)
We bought a set of booster packs that included a promo card and I can't seem to find it in the card database... Any ideas how to add it to my binder?
Also, can't seem to find tokens or a certain artifact creature. Are they in the database somewhere???
Thanks!

I just released rev 57 of database, with some shinies added on. Is your missing card there?
Hi there, I updated the db and then went to Card Database > search for "Angel of Glory's Rise"
With no filters applied, it shows me two results, one from avacyn restored and the other from media inserts. From what I've researched about the card I have, it's from the promo expansion. Does this make sense?
The triple pack promo should be the media insert, if I'm not mistaken.
Does it matter that the symbols don't match?
There's only been two printings of {Angel of Glory's Rise}, the standard from Avacyn Restored and the promo from the triple packs, so it should be the right one.
What do you mean the symbols don't match, though? The symbol on your card compared to the one in the database?
Yes, the symbol on my card looks kind of like a firework... The one in the db says mbp. There's no image of the card in the db so I can't be sure, but that's what shows up in the search
That seem right to you?
Yeah, sounds about right. That should be the one
Awesome, any idea about adding these as well?
Pentavite - artifact-creature, m12
Zombie - m12
Zombie - inistrad
Ooze - return to ravnica
Tokens aren't in the database, actually.
A ok, what about the artifact creature?
A Pentavite is the token card for {Pentavus}. So it's just a token as well :)
Ahhh ok awesome, thanks! Is there a way I can look this stuff up or is it just something you learn?
Are you talking about what's in the database or about the many different cards in MtG?
Both I suppose :) knowing that that card is a token of another, etc
Normal cards have the brown backing with "Deckmaster" on the bottom and have the 5 colors in the center. Tokens usually have an announcement or tip on the back.
As for the database, you just search and find out ;). And for upcoming things, follow Piotr's database rev's in "Announcements" and that'll tell you when things are added or changed.
