A summation of Tiny Grimes 12 Booster Extravaganza!

[Ajones47 170]

So I wrote down all of the cards unknown to me as I watched TinyGrimes opening of twelve booster packs. I was transcribing as I went, so if you spot an error please comment so I can correct it. Also the quality of the video (or my eyes) wasn't the best, so some of the costs I had to guess might be off, again comment if you notice any.

Cool video.  I believe he said of the 12 booster packs they found 4 legendary cards.  It also appeared that they opened 5 packs with starter dice/cards.  Excited to see a high percentage (33%) of Legendary card/dice.  Disappointing to see just as high percentage of packs with starter dice/cards.

 

Overall, I like my chances of getting the cards I want inside of a reasonable amount of boosters.

By my count got 3 Legendary cards (Force Choke, Luke, Han) which fits with the rumor that the Legendary : Rare ratio was 1 in 6 wich is awesome.  What is HIGHLY disappointing are the 5 rares that come in the starter set.  Makes me wonder how much bloat I will be getting with my Gravity Feed pre-order...

Miami Dice got Poe Dameron out of just four booster packs, and another guy over on the Destiny FB page pulled an AT-ST out of a single booster, so the rate of Legendary cards seems fairly high ... Or FFG is stacking the promo boosters with great cards before the big release (but they wouldn't do that, right guys? ... Right?)

That's a little too tin-foil hat conspiracy theory for me...  If they were "stacking" promo boosters, this video shows they did a poor job of that.

Unwatchable video. Thanks for the summary.

3 legendary put of 12 is good. That's 1 out of 4. 4 starter rares is high too. But variances can be expected from such a small sample pool.

I'm getting 1 Rey and 1 Kylo starter and 1 box of boosters. Then once I see what I get I'll decide if I get second starters or not.

Boy can't wait for it to be released.

I'm getting 2 starters and hopefully won't get too many repeats from a box. At least there should be a strong trade community for this game.

I think FFG is counting on that. Starter repeats will have trade value in about a year when another set of new players are drawn to the game and enter with a different starter set.

Good point, however, those new players will probably also want Mind probe and Force throw.

There really does need to be a sarcasm font. lol

I feel like the legendary rate was changed to 1 in 4 and the rules werent updated, but who knows. 1 in 4 fits much better with the fact that there are 60 dice cards that can come from packs, and 17 of them are legendary. 

 

 

Also, boundless ambition is blue.

[sharoth 19]

I´m pretty sure the legendary rate will be 1 in 6 when the product is released. Why should they increase the rate? Right now we have a very limited sample size of opened boosters...

 

And it isn´t unheard of that promo material was manipulated to look better... Not saying I expect FFG to have done that. i think it only looks better because we have a very limited amount of samples. FFG has been very open to discuss rarity and clear on multiple occasions that the rarity of legendary cards in Star Wars Destiny will be 1 in 6. I expect that to be the case when the product hits the market and a big sample size of opened boosters are available.

[Ajones47 170]

Alas, the rules in the new PDF fix the Legendary rate at "one in six" - it's written in the panel which addresses rarity.

There is a newer, higher resolution version of the video available - 

 It's still upside down though. This was my first pack opening and I learned a lot from it. Thanks for all the feedback.
