What happens with VIP packs if we have a complete Theros collection?

Hey guys. Question about VIP packs now that they can’t be used for the next set. If we already finish Theros, I’m assuming opening a vip set will contain dupes. Will the set default back to original rates for those dupes? Meaning we go back to commons and uncommon dupes?

    Based on past experience and the communication on these boards, I would assume the following:
    You will receive cards based on the percentage listed so, you would most likely get 60-100 orbs. 

    I have withdrawn from VIP due to the announcement on new setup for boosters, so I haven’t had one for a while, but from my understanding the packs are useless.

    As @Tremayne says above they will be dupes only (if you open them now) ......but that is only............ 

    UNTIL the exclusives get added after the next set drops- so if you aren’t buying them for cash make sure you have enough packs to pick them up when they are available.

    Ok so not counting the vanguards I have 42 more cards to go in Theros, including the exclusives. With 5 cards per vip pack, that means another 8 packs. That’s when I should stop my subscription to avoid getting any dupes. 

    With 2 vip boosters per month that’s 4 more months, by which a new set would be out I assume.

    If you have a full standard set then standard boosters will only hit Theros as well.
