Parallels

Essential Credentials

Each of the first 125 base cards is available in two different Essential Credentials parallels: Now and Future. Each Now is serial-numbered to a production figure equal to the player's respective sequential-number (i.e. card #13 is serial-numbered to 13 copies).

For the Essential Credentials Future set the serial-numbering scheme is more complicated, so, for your convenience, we have listed the production figures for the whole set below.

Also, cards #1-#60 in both Essentials Credentials sets feature a swatch of game-used material.
