When you open a pack, you have an overall 5% chance to get a Bonus Hero. The way we get to that math is to set the chance to get a Bonus Hero per rarity that you draw. When you draw a 3-Star or 4-Star, you have roughly a 17% chance to get a Bonus Hero. When you multiply the chance to get a cover of that rarity with the chance to get a Bonus Hero, you get the [percent] chance to get a Bonus Hero from any one pull from a Heroic pack (~4% for 3-Stars and ~1% for 4-Stars).

How do Legendary Stores Work with Bonus Heroes? There will be two cover stores: Latest Legendary and Classic Legendary Cover Stores. Each store contains the latest twelve 4-Stars. Latest Legendary Packs contain the 3 latest 5-Stars and cost 25 Command Points per draw. Classic Legendary Stores contain all but the three latest 5-Stars and cost 20 Command Points per draw.

Building up a robust championed roster was the main draw of the game to me at this point. My ability to build large numbers of 4*s to a usable level looks to have been severely undercut.

I'd have liked to see a 10% bonus rather than 5%. Good on the devs though for trying something though. Hopefully we'll see improvements on the system as data comes in. Having 1/2 the 3* removed from tokens seems like an unnecessary addition, however.

These two things feel contradictory.

These two things feel contradictory. Classic and Latest Legends have always followed this rule, hence why it says they are unchanged. I believe the only pack that will be affected are the Heroic tokens.
