    I've only gotten 2 AKH mythics. Both from 5 card boosters won during events in the first couple days after AKH came out. Nothing since then. PPs haven't been giving me squat, usually just the guaranteed rare and maybe some dupe rares.

    Two days ago. Masterpiece. Loyal Retainers. Same day - mythic. Glorious End.

    EDIT: Both from two premium packs I opened that day.

    Lol, I've been playing for just over 2 months and have a whopping 3 mythic total.  I'm a very actilve player as well. And i just moved to gold tier, so now I get out classed very easily.  I've never stressed over a game so bad..

    I pulled Nissa's revelation from the origins pack for checking in day 5. Not a dup. But I generally don't get anything except dups.

    Yesterday I snagged Woodland Bellower from the Origins pack.

    But yes, it's very frustrating. I've had some long droughts myself.

    I've opened ~35 packs of Amonkhet, which has yielded one mythic (Combat Celebrant).

    This seems about on par with the drop rates I've seen recorded.

    That said, the drop rate is atrocious. I get the austerity measures and reining in power creep, but they need to bring the rare/mythic payoff more in line with MtG Paper.

    Yeah, cycling is pretty broken. But at least there's lots of easy to beat blue decks out there now.  :)

    Won? Never....

    Pulled from a pack? I got two copies of Glorious End from Amonkhet packs. Unfortunate it's such a terrible card.

    In the first two weeks of Amonkhet, I got Vizier of the Menagerie, Annointed Procession, Oracle's Vault, and Heart of Kiran fro KLD.  And 6-7 rares, some dupes (Manticore x3, Drake Haven x2)

    I can't complain, and at the rate I had seen them prior to this 'unusual (eye roll) Monty Haul around release I won't see another mythic until I use unobtainium, next new deck release and corresponding Monty Haul, or 6 months from now

    Yes... I suppose cycling is a thing. It feels like cheating when I play one, and it's almost an automatic win when I play against one, since the computer never cycles its cards.

    I was referring to the perceived reduction in drop rates post-SOI/EMN, as well as the gradual correction of casting cost vs. effectiveness, and the bonkers cards from earlier sets.

    The vast majority of my mythics are from Innistrad and Zendikar blocks, even though I've opened far more Kaladesh/Amonkhet cards.

    I sincerely believe they altered the drop rates to slow down player acquisition of mythics, though the spreadsheet gurus can correct this assumption if the data contradicts me.

    Got one from my trial of Ambition Amonkhet pack today.

    Opened Sigarda in a booster from some event on Tuesday.

    Opened Rhonas from trial of ambition booster on Monday


    Does hazoret from masterpiece pack the week before count?


    Overall sitting at 5 Amonkhet mythics, having opened a single premium pack on launch day, and otherwise gotten by with free packs and event prizes.

    Sweet.  For about the same investment, I got 1 Masterpiece and 0 Mythics.  At least the Masterpiece is good.

    Because mythic drops are so rare and the number of players is so large, you can count on some significant group of people experiencing both being "on a roll" just before a release, and being in a mythic drought just after a release.  If you're one of those people, it's a completely natural human reaction to feel like something in the system has changed.

    But the truth of that can be tested with data collected from many people's experiences.  In this case, drop rates were looked at for both pre-2.10 and post-2.10 data (see https://forums.d3go.com/discussion/64739/2-10-drop-rate-stats).  No measurable change to true drop rates was detected.
