Stellar Crown has 19 Illustration Rares and Special Illustration Rares.
Illustration Rares in Stellar Crown
Illustration Rares (IR) and Special Illustration Rares (SIR) are the full-art, scene-style cards collectors chase hardest. Stellar Crown packs 19 of them into its 175 cards: 13 standard IRs and 6 larger-art SIRs. That puts the full-art count at roughly 11% of the set — a meaningful share of why Stellar Crown is fun to open.

IR vs SIR in Stellar Crown
If you're prioritising, the 6 Special Illustration Rares are the scarcer, pricier tier — full-bleed art and lower pull rates — while the 13 standard Illustration Rares are more attainable but still some of the best-looking cards in Stellar Crown. Together those 19 full-art cards are the heart of the set's chase and the reason a master set climbs to 300 cards.
