One of these cards will be a rare and one a themed land. We know that each pack will contain 20 cards instead of the usual 15.
This gives Wizards a lot of directions in which to fly this set. It gives WotC the opportunity to reprint cards for Commander, Legacy, and Vintage. We’ve seen them do this before with sets like Battlebond and Ultimate Masters, and it may be a hint to what types of cards will be included. However, the cards that have the M21 set symbol on them will be legal in Standard because they were printed in the main set. So, even though it’s a combination of Constructed and Limited, many of these cards are not legal in Standard. Where will you be able to use these cards, other than the prerelease and subsequent Jumpstart events? Well, to answer your question, Jumpstart cards can be used in the Commander, Legacy, and Vintage formats. A lucky few will be sporting a very special deck, and it could be you. These packs contain a non-variable list of cards with a theme that is one-of-a-kind. And it gets even better because Wizards has included a very special kind of pack dubbed the “Mythic Rare” pack. So, if you join two events, chances are very high that you’ll be taking an extra rare home.
