Hi,

With a lot of people deliberately staying in Bronze, I wondered how Gold compared, is it really worth 'going for Gold'?

So let's compare Gold III Reward Chests:

With those of an account in Bronze I League:

DEC

The first and easiest thing to look at would be average DEC per chest:

To work out the number of DEC chests we need to take all the other chests from the total:

The Formula: DEC Chests = Total Chests - (Card Chests + Pack Chests + Potion Chests)

Gold III:

DEC Chests = 58 - (28 + 2 + 13) = 15

Average DEC per Gold III Chest = 1976 / 15 = 131.733

% DEC Chests = (15 / 58) * 100 = 25.8 %

Bronze I:

DEC Chests = 44 - (20 + 0 + 10) = 13

Average DEC per Bronze I Chest = 140 / 13 = 10.769

% DEC Chests = (13 / 44) * 100 = 29.5 %

Cards

Next we will look at the Cards

% Chance to get a Card Chest

Formula: (Cards / Total Chests) * 100

Gold III

(28 / 58) * 100 = 48%

Bronze I

(20 / 44) * 100 = 45%

% Chance to get an Epic card

Formula: (Epic Cards / Total Chests) * 100

Gold III

(2 / 58) * 100 = 3%

Bronze I

(1 / 44) * 100 = 2%

% Chance to get a Rare card

Formula: (Rare Cards / Total Chests) * 100

Gold III

(4 / 58) * 100 = 6.9%

Bronze I

(2 / 44) * 100 = 4.5%

% Chance to get a Common card

Formula: (Common Cards / Total Chests) * 100

Gold III

(22 / 58) * 100 = 38%

Bronze I

(17 / 44) * 100 = 39%

Gold Cards:

Both players were lucky enough to get a Gold Foil Common Reward card

Summary:

Gold III gets 13 times more DEC

There is a 3% increase in card drops

There is a 1% better chance to get Epic Reward Cards

There is a 2.4% better chance to get Rare Reward Cards

There is a 1% worse chance you will get Common Reward Cards

You have a greater chance of getting Chaos Legion Packs

So do you still want to play in Bronze I?

Personally I think there is better earning potential in Gold III

Hope you found this food for thought

Have fun,
