How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $9.13
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 3 rarity tiers. Based on 630 pack openings.
$9.13 × 1 packs = $9.13
This product contains 1 booster pack.
$9.13 = $9.13
No promo value applied for this product.
$9.13 × 0.64 = $5.84
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $9.13 ÷ $276.49 = 3.3% • Cash-out: $5.84 ÷ $276.49 = 2.1%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
