Ravnica Remastered is an all re-reprint set featuring cards that were released in any set that took place onMagic: The Gathering’sRavnica plane. As such, there are no brand-new cards included in the card selection. However, there are new rarities for multiple cards.

While rarities won’t matter for every format, ones with special restrictions on the card pool will be affected (namely Pauper and Artisan) by these downshifts. They also have implications on the Limited formats of Ravnica Remastered as some cards will be more common in packs at the lower rarities and harder to open at the higher rarities.

Mythic Upshifts

While most cards were downshifted to lower rarities, a select few were insteadupgraded to mythic. Some of these cards are seeing their first reprint ever, their power level being stronger than initially thought so they were brought up to mythic rather than maintaining their original rarity forLimited format purposes.
