Welcome to BAN Search - Lorcana
Instructions
⌨️ Basic Syntax
Start typing for a card name and a dropdown shall appear! You can keep typing or select the card with arrow keys. You can also set specific options to further narrow your search.
You may also search using the Pricefall bot notation, such as:
name[|code[|number[|finish]]]
There is also limited support for human readable tags. For example, appending (Extended Art) to a card name will show only Extended Art versions. This won't work with regexp search mode.
You can set options in any order and any amount. Use comma , to separate multiple values.
The finish option can be as follows:
| Option | Suffix | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| nonfoil | & | Non-foil only |
| foil | * | Foil only |
| etched | ~ | Etched only |
| is:altfoil | ` | Alt-foil (surge, ripple, galaxy, etc) |
Note: This syntax is disabled if you use a regular expression option to avoid aliasing.
📚 Editions and Sets
Filter cards by edition using the Scryfall notation s:CODE and the full edition name (enclosed in quotes) s:"Aether Revolt".
Regular expressions are supported with the se: option.
As a compatibility layer, e:CODE and ee:CODE are supported for their respective cases.
🔢 Collector Numbers
Filter by collector number using the Scryfall notation cn:NUMBER.
For simple numbers (without prefix or suffix) you can use cn>NUMBER and cn<NUMBER, or a range: cn:NUMBER-NUMBER.
Regular expressions are supported with cne:REGEXP.
Prepend the set code like cn:CODE:NUMBER to filter only cards from that set, leaving other results untouched.
✨ Finish and Foils
Filter by finish with f:VALUE, accepting nonfoil, foil, and etched.
Short forms available: nf, f, and e. If you are looking for special foil variants like Galaxy or Surge, you can use is:altfoil as additional filter
Or use the suffix syntax on any search:
| Suffix | Meaning |
|---|---|
| & | Non-foil only |
| * | Foil only |
| ~ | Etched only |
| ` | Alt-foil (surge, ripple, galaxy) |
🎨 Colors and Color Identity
Filter by color with c:COLOR and color identity with ci:COLOR, using either the color name or the initial. For example for Magic the color option uses the standard WUBRG letters for each respective color, C for colorless, and M for multicolor.
You can also use guild, shard, college, and quad color names:
Guilds (2 colors)
Shards / Wedges (3 colors)
Colleges (Strixhaven)
Four-Color
💎 Rarity
Filter by rarity with r:RARITY. You can use the first letter as shorthand.
Comparison operators supported: r<RARITY and r>RARITY.

| mythic | m |
| rare | r |
| uncommon | u |
| common | c |
| special | s |
| token | t |

📋 Card Condition

| SP | Slightly Played |
| MP | Moderately Played |
| HP | Heavily Played |
| PO | Poor |
⚔️ Card Types
Filter by card type with t:VALUE, accepting any valid supertype, subtype, or type.
The same option works on sealed product types too. You can search for either a category (ie. booster, box, deck) or subtye (ie intro, draft, collector) but also any chunk of the name.
📅 Release Dates
Filter by release date of the card or set with date:VALUE, date>VALUE, and date<VALUE. Similary one can select only the year with the year:VALUE option.

💰 Price filtering
Filter by price with price>VALUE or price<VALUE to look for a particular retail price. Similarly buy_price will filter according to available buylist prices.
These filters can also work referencing the value present on another store. For example price>TCGLow will return all the stores whose prices are greater than TCG Low for any given card.
Note that the store prices can be only referenced for the same category: if you use price>CK the prices loaded will from CK retail. If you want to use the buylist price for a retail search you need to use arb_price, and, vice versa, if you want to use the retail price for a buylist search you need to use rev_price.
Filter by buylist price ratio with ratio>VALUE. Higher ratios indicate vendors are paying more relative to retail. The maximum value fo this filter should not be higher than 64.

Filter results to include only retail or buylist prices with skip:retail and skip:buylist.
Skip results that do not have retail or buylist prices with skip:emptyretail and skip:emptybuylist, or results without any prices at all with skip:empty.
Filter by store region with region:VALUE using us, eu, or jp.

💡 General Tips
Our price data is refreshed periodically over the day, but the precise delay is randomized to avoid sniping. Historical data is also available for most cards and products. You may access price history from a few major vendors by clicking 📊 for each card.
It is possible to look for Source Products. You may retrieve the source product of a card or sealed product by pressing "Found in * products". Similarly, pressing 📖 on a card will return every possible product containing any kind of reprint of that card. The most acurate location for this information is on the left side panel below the card image.
Buylist results feature a Price Ratio. The percentage represents the card deiserability from each buyer: the higher it is, the more a vendor is looking to purchase that card. This percentage is available only if the seller is selling copies of the same card at the same conditions.
Please not that a card condition may refer to different things: Inventory prices refer to the stated conditions (and their accuracy depends on the data provider). Buylist prices are always referring to NM conditions. Sealed products are always reflect the sealed, unopened condition
The Index condition refers to specilized data providers that do not separate entries by conditions (ie TCG Low) and it's suited for trends only, so there are no quantities associated either.
When searching for the Flavor Name of a card, only those specific versions will appear (unless you disable this option in the Other Preferences section). However this only works when searching for a single specific card, and won't be available for complex search queries (they will still be performed using the canonical name of the card).
If you hover on a buylist price, a small tooltip will appear displaying the corresponding Trade Credit price, if available.
