![]() Aether Revolt: $100 a box 96 boxes = $9,600 in product opened to get a complete set of Masterpieces. ![]() The average presale price of a Time Spiral Remastered box is going to be $200. To expand on the second point: The average presale price of an Aether Revolt box was $100. The print run of Time Spiral Remastered is a fraction of the print run of Aether Revolt.Timeshifted foils appear in a product that is $6.99 MSRP per pack, versus $3.99 for Aether Revolt.Timeshifted foils are Masterpiece-level rarity (for any individual card).So instead of thinking of timeshifted foils as timeshifted rarity, let’s think of it in terms of the following: Without hyperbole, any individual foil timeshifted card is about equal to the rarity of an Aether Revolt masterpiece card. When I say that Time Spiral Remastered timeshifted foils are going to be extraordinarily expensive and rare compared to the foils we’re used to getting out of booster packs, I’m not joking. Specific foil Kaladesh Masterpiece: one in 120 boxes.Specific foil Aether Revolt Masterpiece: one in 96 boxes.Specific foil timeshifted card: one in 90.75 boxes.Specific foil mythic rare: one in 60 boxes.If we’re breaking down the odds or rarity of these types of cards, the chart would look as follows: There were 24 Aether Revolt Masterpiece Series cards, so one of each represents 3,456 booster packs opened (or 96 boxes). There were 30 Kaladesh Masterpieces, meaning one of each represents 4,320 booster packs opened (or 120 boxes). This is approximately the same as regular foil mythic rares. Kaladesh Masterpiece Series cards appeared once every 144 boosters. Stated plainly, there are going to be more total foil timeshifted cards out there than foil mythic rares, but fewer of any one individual card by a significant amount! In fact, let’s compare these to Masterpiece Series cards. This is 1.67 of each foil mythic rare, 1.1 of each foil timeshifted card, and 3.77 of each foil rare. For every 100 boxes of product opened, there are 25 foil mythic rares, 133 foil timeshifted cards, and 200 foil rares.Any one given foil timeshifted card is just shy of three-and-a-half times as rare as any one given foil rare card.Any one given foil timeshifted card is one-and-a-half times as rare as any one given foil mythic rare card.15 foil mythic rare cards at one every 144 packs = 2,160 packs opened to get one of every foil mythic card in this set (60 boxes)Įxtrapolating these numbers, we can draw the following conclusions:.121 foil timeshifted cards at one every 27 packs = 3267 packs opened to get one of every foil timeshifted card in this set (90.75 boxes).53 foil rares at one every eighteen packs = 954 packs opened to get one of every foil rare card in this set (26.5 boxes).For example, Time Spiral Remastered contains 53 rares and 121 timeshifted cards. ![]() We must then adjust this for the total number of cards on each sheet. Just looking at the surface values, foil timeshifted cards drop one-and-a-half times less frequently than foil rare cards (one in 27 packs versus one in eighteen packs). In the end, the truth was closer to foil rares than foil mythics, but there’s some math we need to do. I ran two scenarios in last week’s article – if each foil dropped at the foil mythic rare rate (once every four boxes) and if each foil dropped at the foil rare rate (once every eighteen packs). The biggest news that came out about Time Spiral Remastered over the past week was that Nelson Brown, WPN rep for Wizards of the Coast (WotC), confirmed that the drop rate on timeshifted foils is one every 27 packs.
