Frequently asked questions
›Is it better to buy singles or packs?
If you want one specific card, buying the single is usually more predictable and often cheaper than opening packs. Packs are better when you enjoy the opening experience, want many cards from a set, or are happy with random results.
›Does opening more packs guarantee the card I want?
No. Pack results are random. If an estimated pull rate is 1 in 100 packs, opening 100 packs gives roughly a 63% statistical chance of at least one hit, assuming independent odds — not a guarantee.
›Are pull rates official?
Most TCG publishers do not publish official pull rates. Figures on TCG Comp are community-observed estimates with sample-size notes, and they can differ from your real results.
