Although pod drafting is becoming more popular, it is still important to know what foundation cards and Feng Shui Sites are available in the sets that you are drafting from. It will let you know what you might have access to when making draft decisions and what cards you may be facing in the tournament.
The article would also be useful for new players to see what sets to look for to help build their collections.
This document provides a detailed breakdown of Feng Shui Sites and foundations cards for each booster set printed during the Z-Man era.
