The Play Booster breakdown by rarity is as follows:

100 Uncommons
60 Rares
20 Mythic Rares
10 non-Basic cards at “Land” rarity
The most common pack in Dragonstorm with have the following rarity breakdown:
8 Commons
4 Uncommons
1 Rare
1 non-Basic dual land
The Prerelease Packs for this set will contain 5 normal Play Boosters (see below for breakdown), a foil year-stamped Rare or Mythic Rare (not tied to the Prerelease Pack’s clan but legal to play during the prerelease), a Spindown die that matches the pack’s clan, and a Clan-themed Prerelease Booster.
The Prerelease Booster will contain the following:
“14 Magic: The Gathering cards” including one of 9 Rare/Mythic Rares tied to the pack’s clan.
66.7% of the time this will be a Rare
33.3% of the time this will be a Mythic Rare
No additional information about the breakdown of these 14 cards is available at time of writing. If additional information becomes available I will update this article. I believe all 14 cards will be in your Clans colors, but I have not been able to confirm that yet.
I’ve now seen a number of theses seeded “boosters” opened, and it looks like they break down as follows, with all of the cards (except the promo, see Slot 15) in your clan colors:
Slots 1 – 8: Always a Common
Slots 9 & 10: Always an Uncommon
Slot 11: Always the Uncommon clan Triland
Slot 12: Can be a card of any rarity
Note: I have not seen a Rare or Mythic in this slot yet, and I am speculating that it’s possible here. It’s also possible this is always either a Common or Uncommon.)
Slot 13: Always a Rare or Mythic tied to your clan.
Slot 14: Always a land, but can be either a second Uncommon Triland for your clan or a Gainland in two of your clan colors.
Slot 15: This will be your typical prerelease foil-stamped Rare or Mythic promo card and will not be tied to your clan. I’m only including it here because they’re all in the same package.
