No Magic/Rare Item Modifier on Private Leagues

We are about to start a crazy league with no magic/rare drops, and I was curious how this mod actually works. Does it let magic/rare drops roll and immediately filter them out, or does it downgrade the drops to normal?

I am not expecting this to be super easy/nice, but depending on how it works I am going to have to change my approach on getting certain items such as jewels and influenced items. As far as I know and remember, those items only drop magic/rare. Reading other threads about Incursion/Veiled item drops I assume that jewels/influenced items may just not drop

I made a support request and got some of the behavior clarified

"

In Private Leagues with the "No Magic or Rare Items Drop" modifier, there are many items that normally drop as magic or rare (such as jewels or influenced items) that will still drop except they will drop as normal rarity items instead. In the case of Incursion and Veiled items, these are unable to be normal rarity, so would be excluded from dropping.


From this it sounds like the same amount of items may drop, however they are downgraded to normal/white rarity if they are rare or magic. This would mean that it is still very possible to get influence and jewels. It also makes sense why Incursion/Veiled modifiers would be difficult to acquire.

The one mechanic I could not get clarified was if league drops counted as "drops." From https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/g2wucj/delirium_isnt_working_properly_with_whitesuniques/ - it would seem that anything with a guaranteed reward icon bypasses the private league mod restriction. It would be great to have some insight to know if those reward types count as "drops" or if they are inherently different from the rest of the item drop system and exempt from the no Magic/Rare Item Drop modifier.

I don't have a problem with this, was just curious if there was a difference.
As a final update - it appears my eyes didn't fee like communicating to my brain the answer of how league mechanics work.

It seems most league rewards are normal drops
