Short version: Brilliant Stars pull rates
- Brilliant Stars has an estimated 40.15% premium-hit rate.
- No current product has enough pack-price data for a best per-booster figure.
- Cost per hit appears once both pull-rate and pack-price data are available.
Brilliant Stars pull rates explained
Pull rates estimate the chance of opening each rarity from a booster pack. A higher premium-hit rate means premium cards show up more often on average, but one pack or one box can still miss.
The percentage is better for comparison. The "about 1 in" line is easier to understand when you are planning an opening.
Brilliant Stars price per booster and cost per hit
The best per-pack figure uses live products with known pack counts. Cost per hit combines that pack price with the premium-hit rate, so the odds are tied to an actual price.
No current sealed product on this page has enough pack-price data to calculate a best per-pack value.
