Miscellaneous

Time Spiral is changing the face of magic in more ways than one. I just saw this excerpt on the official product page.

"Starting with Time Spiral, there has been a change in how premium cards are distributed. Previously, premium cards replaced a card of the same rarity, so a premium rare would replace a standard rare, a premium uncommon would replace a standard uncommon, and a premium common would replace a standard common. In Time Spiral and in future sets, all rare, uncommon, and common premium cards will replace a standard common instead. It is now possible for there to be two rares in one pack: the standard rare card plus a premium rare (which replaces a standard common)."


This came from the Time Spiral product page. Time Spiral Product Page.

So with purple, you could possibly get a Time Spiral rare, a foil Time Spiral rare and a Timeshifted card which used to be rare.

Wizards have just made boosters that much more worth it.
