Question about what defines a God Box.

Is a god box defined as a booster box with only mythic rares as the rare cards or just a disproportionate amount of mythic rares? Asking because I'm pretty sure I just opened an Eldritch Moon one. I can provide a list of the rare cards if anybody wants to know.

  • Edit: I have posted the list of the rares below.

From my understanding, a “god” box is a box that is full of “money” cards, so to speak, and none of the typical rares and whatnot. The most recent I recall were boxes of Unstable being opened where the packs contained nothing but foil lands in all the rare slots.

It was all the packs had a foil island not only foil islands I believe it started in theros block where someone pulled a god in every pack

The theros one was actually all the gods in 1 pack

Thanks! I'm fairly new at magic and this helps a lot. If this is the case, I think it is a god box.

  • I have put a list in a separate comment.

It isn't a god box like that UST one where every pack contained a foil land, or the FRF one where every pack contained a fetchland, but 13 mythics is significantly high for a box. 4 Lilianas are also pretty nice, those are worth more than a box by themselves. Emrakul, Spell Queller and Tamiyo are the other $5+ cards in there.

Lucky you :)

For real, may not be a "God box" but this is certainly godly as far as EV is considered.

Minor point, but once the box is open, we aren't talking about Expected Value (EV) anymore. It's just Value.
