At select retailers, you may see a new kind of booster available. While Collector Boosters are perfect for fans who want all the coolest cards, and Play Boosters are built to bolster collections by being opened to play Magic, Value Boosters are a smaller, lighter booster that contain a handful of new cards any fan can enjoy—a budget-friendly way to experience Bloomburrow. Each Value Booster contains 3 commons, 2 uncommons, 1 wildcard of any rarity, and 1 card that may be a land, a traditional foil, or a Special Guests card.

1/3 is a close enough ratio that I'm okay with that. If a Play booster is $4.50, this being at $1.50 feels reasonable. If a Play booster is $6, then this being $2 feels like it may lose the "so cheap" feel that makes it enticing as a random pickup for a non-player.
