Half the size of a regular pack, but without a guaranteed rare. Play Boosters will have a guaranteed rare, and with the wildcard slot may have a second rare. Even if WotC doesn't want to acknowledge the secondary market, they know that a lot of the "value" of a pack comes from the rare/mythic hits.
@meant2live218 my head is still regular = draft. So ~ a third of a play booster, price should match.
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.
