Uncommons show up roughly 66% of the time, with rares and mythics showing up around 27% and 7% of the time respectively. There are 63 different Retro Artifacts split into 18 uncommons, 30 rares, and 15 mythics.

How Many Retro-Frame Artifacts Are in The Brothers’ War? Each artifact in the set has a serialized version, and each one of these only has 500 copies numbered 1/500 to 500/500. There’s also technically a third type of retro-frame artifact. The odds of pulling a schematic instead of a regular retro frame are one in six. There are also schematic versions, which have new art that looks like a blueprint, or schematic, of the artifact and are designed to show what the artifact’s designer’s notebook may have looked like.

They come in two different versions.įirst, there’s normal art printed in “old border” where it takes the brown-colored border that artifacts were originally printed within the early sets. The retro-frame artifacts in The Brothers’ War are a bit like the Mystical Archive included in Strixhaven, but instead of instants and sorceries, you get artifacts.
