    Vel you were mixing up probability with expected value. The post I made was an illustration of why the two are not at all the same. I couldn't tell you the actual percent because I don't know how many packs they'll print, the value of a pack without the ring, the value of the ring itself, or how...

    Thought experiment: suppose 100% of the set value is in a single card (fairly analogous to an actual lottery). There may be a 0.00000whatever% chance of opening, but once it's opened, the value of all unopened packs drop 100%.

    Okay @Onderzeeboot, how many of these lands have been relevant outside of the Pauper format? Obviously common lands will be played in a common-only format. :)

    When I played Pauper these were all over, but I believe there were some bans that made that version of Storm deck disappear?
