    A Guide To Maze of Muertos Pull Rates

    Bolt SpiderBy Bolt SpiderFebruary 25, 20263 Comments

    A short guide to the breakdown of MZMU

    Each Case (12 Boxes) contain: 288 Packs, which contains 1440 total cards (1152 Rares and 288 Holo Foil)
    1 Starlight Rare Alternate Artwork of Uria, Lord of Searing Flames can appear per case.
    48 total Secret Rares as these are split into 2 pools of “Main Secret Rares” and “Chibi Secret Rares”.
    About 4 Collector’s Rare can appear per case which consists of only New Cards from this set.

    Collector’s Rare:

    Pumpking the King of Grave Ghosts
    Pumpking the Great Ghost King
    The Undying Legion
    Ectoplasmic Fortification
    Dark Magician of Destruction
    Timaeus the United Magical Dragon
    The Gaze of Timaeus
    Mikanko Shinbu – Noble Twins
    Maiden in Love
    Illusion Gate
    Elemental HERO Thunder Giant – Voltic Thunder
    Chronicle Sorceress
    Darkuriboh
    Overload Future Fusion
    Call of the Haunted

    Secret Rares:

    The Main 6 Secret Rares:

    Pumpkling the King of Grave Ghosts
    Ecotoplasmic Fortification
    Dark Magician of Destruction
    The Gaze of Timaeus
    Mikanko Shinbu – Noble Twins

    Illusion Gate

    The Additional 10 Secret Rare Pool:

    Gaia the Fierce Knight (Chibi Artwork)
    Elemental HERO Sparkman (Chibi Artwork)
    Time Wizard (Chibi Artwork)
    Pumpking the King of Ghosts (Chibi Artwork)
    Des Koala (Chibi Artwork)
    Armed Dragon LV3 (Chibi Artwork)
    Winged Kuriboh (Chibi Artwork)
    Armed Dragon LV10 (Chibi Artwork)
    Archfiend Heiress (Chibi Artwork)
    Number 32: Shark Drake (Chibi Artwork)

    It is noted that in Europe for their boxes, there was another packaging error where they only received 2 Secret Rares per box (1 Chibi and 1 Regular Secret Rare) while you’re supposed to get 2 Secret Rares from the Main Secret Rare pool and 2 from the Chibi Secret Rare pool, like in other regions.

    Ultra Rares:

    In this set there are also 19 Ultra Rares, but 6 are Alternate Artworks, 2 are shortprinted being Dominus Purge and Dominus Impulse and 1 is overprinted being Timaeus the United Magical Dragon, leaving 10 ‘regular’ ones.

    Regular Ultra Rares:

    Stare of the Snake Hair (Does not come in Collector’s Rare)
    Pumpking the Great Ghost King
    The Undying Legion
    Call of the Forgotten (Does not come in Collector’s Rare)
    Sanaki the Mikanko Devotee (Does not come in Collector’s Rare)
    Uzuhime the Manifested Mikanko (Does not come in Collector’s Rare)
    Dogmatika Lawbringer (Does not come in Collector’s Rare)
    Red Lotus King, Flame Crime (Does not come in Collector’s Rare)
    Albion the Sanctifire Dragon (Does not come in Collector’s Rare)
    Solemn Scolding (Does not come in Collector’s Rare)

    Alternate Artwork Ultra Rares:

    Dark Magical Circle (Alternate Artwork)
    Secrets of Dark Magic (Alternate Artwork)
    Masked HERO Dark Law (Alternate Artwork)
    Mask Change (Alternate Artwork)
    Hu-Li the Jewel Mikanko (Alternate Artwork)
    Ohime the Manifested Mikanko (Alternate Artwork)

    Overprinted Ultra Rares:

    Timaeus the United Magical Dragon

    Short Printed Ultra Rares:

    Dominus Purge (Does not come in Collector’s Rare)
    Dominus Impulse (Does not come in Collector’s Rare)

    From data of 75 cases from Europe, it also seems that both Dominus Purge and Dominus Impulse are half printed where 105 and 113 copies were pulled respectively, while every other Ultra Rare were pulled over 270 total copies. It is unknown about in North America, but it also seems to be the case.

    So from a case you’d get 4 to 5 Alternate Artworks (out of a pool of 6 options), 5 Timaeus the United Magical Dragon Ultra Rare, 2 of each Dominus Purge and Dominus Impulse, and 36 of the other 10 Ultra Rares, or 3.6 of each one. The only thing you don’t walk away with an entire playset of is various Chibi Alternate Artwork, which you have 2 of each of and playsets of most, and those Ultra Rare Alternate Artworks, which you didn’t even pull 1 of each of let alone multiples.

    Misprints and Quality Control Errors:

    Maze of Muertos also has had plenty of quality control issues that have appeared from players around North America and here are some of them that came from posts from Discord, Facebook, Reddit, and X(Twitter).

    Damage on the corners of the cards have been noticed by many players who opened the product, along with damage on the back of the card itself has appeared a handful of times.



    Black Ink Smears on Super Rares that come from the left side of the card to the right.
    Super Rares also have been noted to have mass foil bleed where the foil can be seen all on over the cards.

    Collector’s Rare were printed with no texture and completely flat compared to previous Collector’s Rare from Maze of the Master, Rarity Collection 4 and previous side set. Along with slight damage to the corners straight from the packs.

      Useful article, it’s nice to know what’s short printed. Are you planning to do more for other sets?

        It is definitely a plan to hope to have more of these articles in the future!

      This article is great, if there are quality issues with a product it should be known.
      Not because of being negative but because complaints are the way of hoping quality gets better in the future.
