Magic pop cards.

Post by eyetu5 »

So I saw all the Magic pop card crap on youtube of people trying endless amounts and getting nothing, I had a little bit of silk left and bought 5. On the last one I got lucky.

My question is if i'd have clicked 11d instead would it have been the same chance of winning? If so I'm gutted I chose 6d. And also is it really rare I one the sun in 5 cards?

I don't know how rare it is for a 6d sun, for 10/11d it would be insane but it's true that lower degrees has higher chance of succeeding. I spend a TON on 10d sun weps but never won.

I got the 6th degree in the first try. So yeah, they're kinda easy to get at lower degrees. Higher degrees are darn hard though :)

Lower degrees --> max. 5 pop cards = WIN
10d+ --> endless ammounds of silk = NO WIN

If I remember correctly I tried 17 tickets for angel wings and still no luck. its really random luck but for lower degree items you have a lot higher chance of getting it than 10d-11d.

When POP was first implemented that was the time to play it. Back then a lot more people won... and it make sense. It's the best way to get everyone interested in it by allowing the first few to win.

Actually, BuDo, after a few months of the magic pop thingy, they actually increased the chance of winning. At least so they said. So I don't think you're completely right about the fact that they increased it from the beginning, and then lowered it.

However, this is what they have told us! They might have done something completely different, of course :sohappy:

I probably spend 2.5-3k on magic pops going for either 10d sun bow/sword/spear/shield. I regret it somewhat but meh...
