I can say first hand it is the luck of the draw, my brother in law was getting either bulk rares or $250+ where as I was not getting the high cards, but more consistently getting $7-15 cards

sounds to me like you were pretty lucky ngl

Unfortunately it's all luck. Higher priced packs do have higher priced cards but it's still rare to pull a $100+ card even with the legendary packs.

That's pretty good tbh.

Kanzalone, a youtube streamer, spent nearly 10-15 hours streaming and opened hundreds of packs and the most expensive cards he had were around $100. Then all of a sudden he pulled a $1k+ after 3 days of streaming.

Deleting your save and starting a new one isn't going to reset your luck. The only reason you would do something that silly is if you can't afford to buy anything and you have nothing to sell, which is almost impossible.

Ive opened sooooooo many packs and only gotten 1 Ghost Rare (which didnt trigger the achievement). My most profitable pull was today when I got a 1200$ card from the literal first Legendary Pack I opened. Since then I have started getting a few 100-500$ cards a day, mostly due to the increase base price of the Legendary Cards.

IIRC I saw the dev say that Ghost Rares are a 0.2% chance per pack, so until you are around 500 packs, you are below odds of hitting one.

Was is a full art foil? Or the other one? There are two of each ghost card.

I believe it was full art. I should have screenshotted it, but alas. Maybe it was the other type, tbh I didnt know there were two types. Thanks for the info

they are all full art, the normal ones are worth hundreds, and the foils are worth thousands

Ahh yea, that sums that up then. It was worth like 850$, so probably not foil

I pulled a full art foil ghost card - valued over $14K. I have a couple of other $2K+ cards as well. Def not as easy as the prologue to pull some monster cards.

20+ hours of play, well over 1000 packs opened ... no ghosts, and nothing higher than around $500. I've no luck lol.

Hopefully people aren't spamming the weaker packs for this, I have opened two cards worth over $1000 from the 3rd purple pack with all rares, in about 250-300 packs. I'm sure I'm a bit lucky to get that type of luck, but like they said the higher rarity packs have a better chance.

Just to make a point you also don't need that type of luck to profit off opening packs, getting any card over $5 in a pack you are buying for say $3 is above breaking even.
