Using both, you can give them an overall "setting likelihood" score; 1 being extremely likely, 10 being not likely.Alara: 6.5; three sets, and medium Rabiah.Amonkhet: 7; two sets, medium Rabiah.Dominaria: 1; many sets, great Rabiah.Eldraine: 7; one set, good RabiahFiora: 7.5; two sets, medium RabiahInnistrad: 3.5; five sets, perfect RabiahIxalan: 7.5; two sets, medium RabiahKaladesh: 7; two sets, medium RabiahKamigawa: 7.5; three sets, weak RabiahLorwyn/Sahdowmoor: 6; four sets, medium RabiahMirrodin/New Phyrexia: 5; six sets, medium RabiahRavnica: 1.5; nine sets, perfect RabiahShandalar: 8.5; one set, weak RabiahTarkir: 6.5; three sets, medium RabiahTheros: 5; four sets, good RabiahZendikar: 3.5; six sets, great RabiahThis scoring system puts a lot of settings close together, largely because only a handful of planes have more than four sets. The ones that do "clear the pack" are notable;Dominaria, Magic's first setting, has a perfect Rabiah score of 1, and the most sets here. It's obviously the most notable and detailed setting, and when (it's not if) it gets another card set, it's a prime candidate for a setting book.Ravnica is the only one to get close, as it can't match Dominaria in set count. But it gets really close, as it too has a perfect Rabiah score.Innistrad is the third plane with a perfect Rabiah, and has five sets; a lot, but the world is actually not as detailed compared to the two above. Zendikar ties, having a slightly lower Rabiah at two, but more sets.Theros and New Phyrexia come in with scores of 5. New Phyrexia has a load of sets at 6 (tied for third most) with a fine Rabiah score, and Theros has less sets but a better Rabiah.It doesn't actually change the calculus here much, as they actually pine pretty close together, though it also points out the truly bad (Shandalar).</blockquote>
