Token section?

Hey all,
So I know this set doesn't include tokens, but I'm going to include a section on which tokens are generated by cards in the set so people can adequately prepare.

Color Math

Just some quick calculations on the side to get to 121 packs and 46 themes:

  • 1 Rainbow
  • For each color (so x5):
    • 2 Mythic (1 Planeswalker + 1 Another)
    • 3 Rares (x2 variants)
    • 4 Common (x4 variants)

Quantity of M21 Cards

So there's an error in Rosewater's article that we're using as a source to say 120 cards are from M21. It must have been a typo. I used an Excel spreadsheet (Dropbox link) to compile all the Jumpstart decklists, and then compared them to the JMP and M21 list of cards. There's actually 150 unique M21 cards that get used (not counting basic lands). Of the 2,420 total cards in all 121 decklists, 1,137 will be Jumpstart cards, while 1,283 will be M21 cards.

Based on this raw data, I'm updating the Set Details section to indicate the correct count. However, what should we do about the invalid citation? Presumably WotC might update the article at some point with the correct count, but in the meantime, it doesn't actually support the correct number. I'll leave the citation where it is for now.
