Theros Beyond Death is a Magic: The Gathering set released 2020-01-24. This page tracks whether its sealed products are worth opening: live TCGPlayer market prices for every product, the expected value of the cards inside, and the pull-rate model behind the math.
Draft Booster (15 cards: 1 rare or mythic, 3 uncommons, 10 commons, 1 land; a foil replaces a common in about 1 pack in 3, and mythics take about 1 rare slot in 7.4). Set Boosters and Collector Boosters have different contents and aren't modeled. Draft Boosters were retired with Play Boosters in 2024, so supply is fixed. Pull rates follow the published Draft Booster collation.
