Understanding Value Contributors
This table shows which cards contribute the most value to your booster box expected value (EV).
- $/Box: How much value this card adds to the entire box on average
- % Box EV: What percentage of the total box value comes from this card
- Ranking: Cards are ranked by their total contribution to box value
Key Insights:
- Higher-ranked cards are your "chase" cards - the valuable pulls that make boxes profitable
- Cards with high % Box EV carry more risk/reward - they can make or break a box opening
- Foil variants typically contribute more value due to rarity and collector demand
- 💡 "Why is a $30 card only $6.50 here? Pull rates! This shows true box impact, not raw prices."
- ⚖️ "Filters show cards – we show VALUE DRIVERS. 90% of your profit comes from the top 5."
Values are calculated based on current market prices and card rarity/pull rates.
