Hey just like opening a pack of baseball cards they have the odds posted on the back for getting inserts. So whats the algorithm like that is used to choose whether you get an ultrarare? How often can I expect to get one?

I was actually about to post something similar to this... I got a few packs yesterday and in the FIRST one I opened, got 3 of the same card. Is there any way to program something like.... "limit 2 copies of a card per pack?"

To answer the first post, the final card in each pack of 8 cards has a 20% chance of being Ultra Rare, and an 80% chance of being Rare.
Bubbles, I'll check on limiting the number of duplicate cards per pack.

Also, you'll always receive 5 Commons and 2 Uncommons.

Damn I haven't received a single ultra rare yet. I guess that's just my luck. I thought they were like every 40 packs or something thats way easier than I had originally thought.

how many cards do you start the game with (that is without opening the three packs you start with)?

Yes! Playing and winning in tournaments is the best way to earn cards. Sealed Deck tournaments give you 3 packs to build a deck from for the entire tournament -- AND you keep the cards you get from those packs after the tournament. Qualifier tournament prizes are: - 1st place: 10 packs and slot in Grand Finals
- 2nd place ties: 4 packs
- 3rd place ties: 2 packs for 1v1, 1 pack for Free-for-All
