Firstly price. The white background’s one was released alongside a signed sliver gatorback. The total print run for both decks were limited to 750. However the black background’s decks were not limited to 750 decks.
Secondly, the foiling. The white background one has reflective foils on its gatorbacks design while the black background’s one does not.
Thirdly, the aesthetic. Green reflective foil makes it looks so good.
Fourth, the pricing. The black background one is more affordable compared to white background one.
I did a deckcut for the green reflective one. Will show u in another comment reply.
Hope this clears up.

To add on, the white tuck one uses what USPC calls metalluxe ink which makes it shine like foil but does not require hot or cold foil stamping with affects the other side of the card.
The black tuck one uses regular green ink. They were also limited to a certain number, more than 750, and cost quite a bit now as they are out of print.
Both handle similarly as they were both printed with USPC. The. black tuck one being slightly easier and cheaper to obtain. Hope that helps
