As Jason said above, the fact that we're getting 20 mythics rather than the usual 15 clearly means they're not using the traditional 2x53R+15M=121 printing. And if they're not using that, as far as I know it was now anyone's guess how many rares there might be, because the only reason people thought 53 was because of the past 121-card-rare-sheet standard they're clearly not following.
I had so much fun with this in Monkey Grow in Modern until they banned Probe. I think I'm still a bit sore about it. Shoaling a Bogle or Glistener Elf on the draw is something that has to be expeeienced to be truly appreciated. I love this card.

It's the subtle changes from set to set like the number of cards in a set that can sometimes go unnoticed.
UMA - 254
GRN - 259
M19 - 280
BBD - 254
DOM - 269
A25 - 249
RIX - 196
IMA - 249
XLN - 279
There really isn't a clear pattern that is noticeable with the exception of a sorta pattern that is masters sets are usually 249 with a 15M - 53R - 80U - 101C rarity breakdown, whose pattern was deviated from with UMA. With that said, large sets like this usually have exactly 15 mythics with the exception of DFCs skewing that count from time to time. Having a general idea of how print sheets work, I wasn't sure if we were losing some rares to make way for the extra mythics, which is why I asked.

They have spoiled 51 rares so they definitely aren’t going to take out 5 to account for the extra mythics.
I’m assuming they have some “plan” to fix collation. And I’m worried it will end up being an even bigger disaster than MM15 was, which was infamous for boxes with no mythics and multiple copies of the same rare.
Let's hope not. Let it just be these two...
Lets hope not
They can’t be unless one is downshifted. There are only two rares left to be spoiled after this and DTT.
What's your source on this?

A confirmation would be something that... isn't fan guesswork on a wiki.
It might be an educated guess. Hell, it might even be *right*. But it's not confirmation.
