Mystical Archive is a separate set of cards associated with Strixhaven: School of Mages.[1]

Description

It is similar to the Masterpiece Series but the cards appear more frequently in the boosters of the main set. In Mystical Archive, Wizards of the Coasts has reprinted 63 of the most famous instants and sorceries of all time, in specially designed showcase frames and at all rarities. Strixhaven Draft and Set Boosters contain one Mystical Archive card, and Collector Boosters have at least three. These will only be legal in formats thay are allready legal in. They are not part of the Standard environment. However, the cards may be used in Limited events.

Mystical Archive cards are a bonus card in each draft booster and set booster. They DON'T replace another card of the same rarity in a pack. So you can get multiple rare cards in a draft booster

While some of the Mystical Archive cards are reprints of things previously at common (like Opt), the Archive only has uncommon, rare, and mythic rare expansion symbols. Unsurprisingly, the higher the rarity, the less commonly those cards appear! More to share during previews.
