Suggesting gold for legendary, silver for epic, orange (bronze) for rare and brown (wood?) for common. Arguments for this:
- It's fun to immediately and clearly see what type of card is being played. It creates diversity, colorfulness and a stronger and more unique impression for each card. Legendary cards will be truly legendary as you will not see that many golds.
- Most importantly, having this clear distinction creates more possibilities than there are right now for additional depth, flexibility and/or restrictions, thereby allowing for better tweaking and balancing of card interactions and mechanics. For example, your opponent's Cantarella (epic) stealing and playing a legendary from your deck or Fringilla Vigo (epic) spawning a copy of one of your legendary special cards seems OP and could be limited to silver and below.
In short, the different borders would provide additional functionality, diversity and cooler and more unique looks. Do you agree?
