Borderless treatments for planeswalker cards were introduced to Magic with Mythic Edition for Guilds of Ravnica and have been continued in each set since Throne of Eldraine. This borderless treatment has become a favorite, and we love the opportunity to bring stunning renditions of each Planeswalker to life. Each of the six Planeswalkers in Core Set 2021 gets a borderless treatment featuring unique art.
In addition, the positive reception to the borderless treatment got us thinking about where else we could capture that excitement. In Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths, we featured the Triome lands in a borderless style. With Core Set 2021, we decided to feature six reprint cards that we knew would resonate with players. We combed through the set to find the perfect fits for the borderless treatment and chose from the set one uncommon (in the borderless treatment, this uncommon has a rare symbol), three rares, and two mythic rares.
I'm confused. This is a rare because...? This wouldn't replace the rare slot if you opened it in a pack, would it?
I doubt it, but then again, even if it did, I wouldn't mind it at all. Considering how obscenely popular Cultivate is and how fantastic this art looks, I'm pretty sure this will be worth big bucks.

The Planeswalkers are separate. The two mythics are Massacre Wurm and Grim Tutor.
Are you sure that is a showcase card? I believe it is a borderless card. Correct me if Im wrong.
Correct, the showcase cards are the planeswalkers and for each of them one rare, uncommon, common and basic land with the planeswalker's special border (at least for the five monocolor walkers, I guess Ugin stands alone). Chandra's frame for example is the one that's also used for her spellbook cards.

I think the triomes and their borderless version were popular because of the comic style art rather than the card having no border.

The art is splended so it deserved its own forum
Unknown. It’s weird that this card has two different rarities in the same set.
No it's collector number is above the set number

That being said I would probably pretty pissed to find that in my rare slot during prerelease.
Hands to the sky

It's in the common slot but I'm not sure how it works
