Shards of Alara will be the first set to feature several changes in WOTC's design and publishing approach. Sets from Shards forward will have a smaller number of cards, to reduce the size of the constructed cardpool for Block and Standard, but will add the new "Mythic Rare" level of rarity, which will appear in place of the pack's rare in 1 out of every 8 packs. Also, as part of their move to make products more friendly to beginners, booster packs will include a basic land in place of one of the commons, and pre-constructed decks will be rebranded as "Intro Packs" and include a 41-card preconstructed deck and one Booster Pack. Online Only Price, not eligible for In-Store Pickup.
