i ordered 7 packs. out of my 14 tep cards, 2 were the same...astrologers (a 3/3 crimson/pale green hybrid reprint of the old card :)). as far as distribution, it seems fairly random, as i noticed no pattern in the two astrologers packs, or distribution of good and evil cards.

i did notice i got quite a few 'junk' ultra rares/rares...but i suppose thats pretty subjective :-\
therer is no such thing as junk URs your lucky to even get a UR

yes...yes, there IS such a thing as junk ultra rares...i'd dare to say at least 75% of the ultra rares in existence are junk.

and no, you're no longer 'lucky' to get an ultra rare with tep...they're so easy to get now. out of my 7 packs of tep, i pulled 11 ultra rares. i'll list them for you:

siegeworks, angry mob, pierced heart x2, prosperity, three nails, ship to cyprus, a new beginning, thirty pieces of silver, casting lots, and satans folly. ALL of those are sub-par ultras. of those 11, three nails and maybe ship to cyprus/prosperity see the most play. ugh.
Common UR's? Thats just sad :'( :-\ :dunno:

Very sad indeed, they are banned for tournament play because of there utter repulsiveness.

Just out of curiosity MKC, how many packs did you get? I've got 20 coming on Monday (according to UPS Tracker). Did you get a lot of duplicates, or was the distribution fairly spread out? Also, was there any noticeable pattern to how to TexP cards came together (like 1 good 1 evil, two red cards, etc.) or was it random?

I bought 14 and took them all right in the order they were in the box.  I got 2 duplicates (Leah, ).  Seemed pretty random.

The ultras seemed to average about one per pack, though several were opened with three or four.  Michael Leung opened 4 Neros in 15 packs.  Two different people opened copies of Warriors' Strong Angel back to back.
