I think a lot of it has to do with the colors tey used, for one thing.
tehre is a lot of ink on those cards, and tehy're suffering much the same
as my Black Bordered Magic Cards (Especially the older ones) did.
But, it's also part os the ink they used, I think. It's think and heavy,
which means it flakes off or "melts" (thus getting fingerprints or
stickyness) easily. Also, it doesn;t take the metallic ink of those
markers the artists use to sign cards well, either...:(
