How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $5.84
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 5 rarity tiers. Based on 700 pack openings.
$5.84 × 2 packs = $11.68
This product contains 2 booster packs.
$11.68 = $11.68
No promo value applied for this product.
$11.68 × 0.64 = $7.48
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $11.68 ÷ $21.22 = 55.0% • Cash-out: $7.48 ÷ $21.22 = 35.3%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
