How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $2.42
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 4 rarity tiers. Based on 615 pack openings.
$2.42 × 1 packs = $2.42
This product contains 1 booster pack.
$2.42 = $2.42
No promo value applied for this product.
$2.42 × 0.64 = $1.55
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $2.42 ÷ $9.59 = 25.2% • Cash-out: $1.55 ÷ $9.59 = 16.2%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
