Magic: Tenth Edition was a game changer. Not only did this set bring back some of the most powerful cards; it also introduced new content which hasn't been done since 1993 with the release of Alpha and Beta. It also includes all five of the initial Planeswalkers from Lorwyn, reprinted as Mythic Rares. Magic 2010 is a set you truly don't want to miss out on!
10th edition is the first and only core set since Beta in Black Border. Core Sets are intended for newer players just getting into the game. The cards have simpler mechanics and theme decks run smoothly with less confusion.
A 10th Edition Sealed Booster Box contains:
36 Booster Packs.
Each pack contains:
15 playing cards
A Tips and Tricks card that sometimes has a token face.
1 Rare
3 Uncommons
11 Commons
A chance of a random foil of any card in place of a common.
Altogether, 383 black bordered playable cards!
we received our 4 boxes and received good rares (pithing needle, brids of paradise, wrath of god, reya dawnbringer, platinum angel etc). i even had 2 rares in one booster pack (1 foil and non-foil of beacon of immortality). Overall all, this core set is superb!
