How the EV is Calculated
EV per booster pack = $1.68
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 5 rarity tiers. Based on 8,000 pack openings.
$1.68 × 9 packs = $15.12
This product contains 9 booster packs.
$15.12 + $1.00 promos = $16.12
Promo card value is based on live TCGPlayer prices.
$16.12 ÷ $100.85 = 16.0% return
Sealed price is the average TCGPlayer market price. Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
