Vintage Characters Returning to Packs! (7/27/17)

Brigby

Hi Everyone,

Starting with the Mind Gem Season, Cover Stores that have 3-Stars or 4-Stars will now contain all characters from that Star Rating! (Excluding Limited Characters like Howard the Duck, Devil Dino, etc).

Packs that have 3-Stars in them will now contain all 3-Star characters, instead of just a select 20. In addition, packs that have 4-Stars in them will now contain the latest 12 4-Stars (now called Latest 4-Stars), as well as all other non-Limited 4-Stars (now called Vintage 4-Stars).

The chance to pull a 4-Star is split evenly between Latest and Vintage 4-Stars, which means Latest 4-Stars will initially have 3x better odds than Vintage! Players will now be able to get covers for any 4-Star in Cover Stores, while making the Latest 4-Stars more accessible. 4-Star Characters will continue to rotate into the Latest status as they are released, and will enter the Vintage status when there are at least 12 following 4-Stars that have been released.

5-Stars are unaffected by this change.

Details:
