How the EV is Calculated
Step-by-step walkthrough of the pack EV, promo value, and cash-out assumptions.
EV per booster pack = $2.72
Sum of (average card value × pull rate) across all 6 rarity tiers. Based on 8,000 pack openings.
$2.72 × 36 packs = $97.92
This product contains 36 booster packs.
$97.92 = $97.92
No promo value applied for this product.
$97.92 × 0.64 = $62.67
Cash-out EV applies a 0.64 multiplier to account for marketplace fees, shipping, and bulk liquidity discount.
Market: $97.92 ÷ $291.59 = 33.6% • Cash-out: $62.67 ÷ $291.59 = 21.5%
Above 110% = Rip It, below 90% = Keep Sealed.
