RNG once you've got covers

I'm trying to estimate how many pulls I'll need to cover Thanos. I've now got him at 2/2/2 and am sitting on 1250 cp, it seems like I should need approximately 163 pulls (300*7/13), but maybe I'm oversimplifying the math?

Any thoughts?

    Statistically every twentieth Latest Legends token should be a Thanos. You need seven covers, so that should mean 140 pulls, or 3500 CP.
    Some extra pulls to be on The safe side wouldn't hurt though.

    Excellent math;

    Ran it through my simulator (10,000 times) starting Thanos @ 2/2/2

    With CS Assistance
    It'll take between 24 and 409 latest tokens to finish Thanos with an average of 139

    W/o CS Assistance
    It'll take between 26 and 608 latest tokens to finish Thanos with an average of 163

    @Henderos (and sorry for stealing thread icon_e_smile.gif

    I have Strange at 4-4-3. Can you do the match on maxing him? My Thanos is at 1 cover and BW - 2-2-2. Ideally I would like to pull 3 blue covers to have him respeced by CS to have 5 in Yellow but RNG would not be that kind (no plans to champion him).

    To Max Strange (min < avg < max)
    w/o CS assistance
    2 < 46 < 318

    w/ CS assistance
    2 < 39 < 266

    Sample
    -Starting Position----------------------
    Thanos          &#91;1/0/0&#93; &#91;1&#93;
    Black Widow     &#91;2/2/2&#93; &#91;6&#93;
    Dr. Strange     &#91;4/4/3&#93; &#91;11&#93;
    Number of Legendary Tokens: 44
    Number of 4 Star Covers: 40 (90.91%)
    Number of 5 Star Covers: 4 (9.09%)
    Number of 5 Star Covers Sold:  (%)
    -----------------------
    Thanos          &#91;1/2/0&#93; &#91;3&#93;
    Black Widow     &#91;2/2/2&#93; &#91;6&#93;
    Dr. Strange     &#91;4/6/3&#93; &#91;13&#93;
    
    
    Edit: I know it says 6, but that's with CS help; it's just a race to 13.
