Worldwake Collation

Worldwake is a small set with 60 commons, 40 uncommons, 35 rares, and 10 mythic rares. This is the normal size for a small set of this era. Foil cards are included in booster packs with advertised odds of 1 : 67 cards. The set was printed in English in the USA.

Worldwake was sold in 15 card booster packs (which contain an additional ad card). Booster boxes have 36 packs.

US Pack Anatomy

The US printing uses sequential collation.

Packs are back-facing and have 10 commons followed by 3 uncommons, a rare, an ad card, and a basic land (from Zendikar). If there is a foil card, it will appear at the end, displacing a common.

10 Commons	3 Uncommons	1 Rare	1 Ad Card	1 Land
9 Commons	3 Uncommons	1 Rare	1 Ad Card	1 Land	1 Foil

The commons are printed on one sheet with each card appearing twice (and one filler). This is divided into a 66-card A run (with 33 distinct cards) and a 54-card B run (with 27 distinct cards). Discounting foils, packs contain 5-6 A cards followed by 4-5 B cards.

When a foil appears in a pack, it will displace a common card. It seems that rare foils displace B cards, uncommon foils displace A card, and common foils usually displace A cards but occasionally replace B cards as well; but these observations are somewhat uncertain.

Uncommons are printed on one sheet with each card appearing three times (and one filler). This is divided into a 66-card A run (with 22 distinct cards) and a 54-card B run (with 18 distinct cards). Packs can have either 2 A cards followed by 1 B card, or 1 A card followed by 2 B cards. Since the runs are unbalanced, 2 A cards should mathematically happen 13/20 of the time.
