#1 → base set → secret rares → reverse holo section

Master set FAQ

How many cards are in the Pitch Black master set?

194 cards: 84 base cards, 74 reverse holos, and 36 secret rares (cards numbered above 84).

How much does it cost to master set Pitch Black?

About $2,955.36 at today's market prices — $109.86 for the base set, $65.29 for reverse holos, and $2,780.21 for secret rares. Prices update daily on this page.

What size binder do I need for Pitch Black?

A 216-pocket binder fits the full 194-card master set: 11 dual-sided 9-pocket pages, or 9 dual-sided 12-pocket pages.

Do promos count toward a master set?

Purists stop at the 194 set-numbered cards; "grand master" collectors also chase prerelease and product-exclusive promos from the same era.

What order should cards go in the binder?

Most collectors run set-number order: base set first, then secret rares. Reverse holos either go in a second binder section or side-by-side with their regular print (buy double the pages if you interleave).
