How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $4.09
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 5 rarity tiers. Based on 700 pack openings.
$4.09 × 6 packs = $24.54
This product contains 6 booster packs.
$24.54 = $24.54
No promo value applied for this product.
$24.54 × 0.64 = $15.71
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $24.54 ÷ $61.08 = 40.2% • Cash-out: $15.71 ÷ $61.08 = 25.7%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
