Are foil MTG cards less durable than standard ones (looking to preorder the D&D cartoon set)?

[QUOTE="Nathaniel Lee, post: 8349193, member: 6948827"] They have a preorder up to get a set of Magic the Gathering cards that feature some of the characters from the D&D cartoon. You can nab either the foil or the non-foil cards (of both if you're Scrooge McDuck swimming in piles of gold). I'm not a Magic the Gathering player. I have some cards from the very first few releases of the game, but I never [I]really[/I] played, and I'm not interested in starting now. I'm purchasing this new set of cards because it's D&D adjacent. :) So I'm wondering if anyone with actual experience collecting and playing the game could offer insights on whether it makes sense to go with the admittedly cool looking foil cards for a little more money since I've heard that the foil cards tend to wear down pretty easily (I'm assuming from play but maybe they'd just degrade on their own as well?).
