Confirmed: Eternal Masters - June 10, 2016

[Dice_Box]

Brago, King Eternal was just confirmed on twitch by community super league. I'm not sure why this is in EM except that the card says "eternal." :P

It's a powerhouse as a Commander.

After seeing the first green cards in Eternal Masters I'm expecting them to reprint pretty much the entire Elves! deck at this point. I hope WotC prints the shit out of this set, even if that means the stuff I own now does take a nosedive in value. Moar legacy for everyone!

[Meekrab]

Not sure on rares but I think it should be about 17,000 of each mythic.

17,000 is awfully close to 22,800. What are they odds they print exactly as many of each EMA Mythic as they did of the P9? ;)

I love the Elves reprints! I think the M15 frame is way better than the 8ED frame IMO, so I'll replace what I can.

Pulling thoughts out of my head that are probably incorrect, I believe that puts us closer to 20k of each, not counting foils

100K boxes = 2.4M packs = 2.4M mythics/rares. @ 121 of these per sheet, 1 mythic per sheet. 2.4M / 121 = 19834

Each rare is at 2-3x per sheet, right? So roughly 40-60k of each rare. That doesn't seem right to me.

Interesting... How do we know there are 100,000 boxes of EMA? How many boxes do they make for the average standard set print run?

It's more accurate to measure by pack because Masters boxes only have 24 packs while normal boxes have 36. The initial order stores get of a set though is I think 6 cases (highest level stores getting even more, but this used to be the max) which is 36 boxes or 1,296 packs. Masters seems to be 3 cases at 4 boxes/case or 288 packs. So just the initial order of a typical standard set should have 4.5x the availability or to put this another way roughly an EMA uncommon equaling a standard mythic in the first couple weeks in terms of availability. Standard gets a much bigger print run than that though as there's redemption and followup orders.

So to answer your question, there are a lot of packs/boxes in the average standard print run.

That's what I was thinking.

hmm, i still wait for Ancestral Vision to come up in the spoiler.... there still is room. Blue is lacking rares yet compared to other colors and Wrath of God is #38, Brainstorm on #40. So there is either a white card with XYZ in the beginning or a blue Card with AB on #39.... I´d love to see a vision reprint after the unbanning hypetrain

[Barook]

So why is Heritage Druid a rare? Is it really that broken in Limited? Because this seems extremely dumb.

It's not only about the printing, you have to also think about how many p9 pieces were destroyed or forgotten due to the lack of knowledge in the first years of the game.
22800 lotuses were printed, but there are not 22800 playable/in the market lotuses right now. Maybe there are less than 17000, who knows.

Considering the recent unban in Modern, it's far more likely to appear in the next Modern Masters than it is here.

[janchu88]

im pretty sure the set was already planned and went into production before the latest unbannings happened

[iatee]

That actually increases the likelihood of it being in the set, as they wanted this set to be not-Modern-staples.

Edit: Never mind, just reread the conversation and that's what you're implying.

[Noctalor]

A single card able to generate something like 200 green mana in a turn should not be uncommon in the first place.

Still, that's a dick move and heritage will keep that shitty pricetag

So Port has to be spoiled today right?

I'm assuming port will be printed. Wouldn't mind grove of the burnwillows either.

The whole set is being revealed in about 30 minutes.

[rubblekill]

No port it seems?

[Whitefaces]

No Port indeed. Such a slap in the face for players online.

Damn, glad I didn't sell my ports online...

I have to agree. Sphinx at mythic is disgusting though. At this point without port I don't even know how much this set is going to be drafted online.
