How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $0.68
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 4 rarity tiers. Based on 500 pack openings.
$0.68 × 2 packs = $1.36
This product contains 2 booster packs.
$1.36 = $1.36
No promo value applied for this product.
$1.36 × 0.64 = $0.87
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $1.36 ÷ $29.63 = 4.6% • Cash-out: $0.87 ÷ $29.63 = 2.9%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
