They likely print in set (but very large) sequences that are pre-randomized. I'm sure there are limitations on doing true randomization in the mass printing world... one of which would be keeping the distribution of the "rare" cards to a set rate per pack/box.

What they should be doing is randomizing the packs that go into boxes. Keep the average number of "really rare" cards (they call them Mythic rare) the same per box, just shuffle where they are in the box.


I don't buy single packs myself, except when playing at an event that doesn't have an entrance fee (to support the store I'm playing at). I'll stick to boxes or individual cards for my collection purposes
