    95 standard token pulls:

    1 3*   while i should get  2 3* and a 1/3 (chance of third one)
    7 2*   while i should get  almost 12 2*
    87 1*

    which mean my odds were:
    3*    1.05%         while it should be   2.33%
    2*     7.37%        while it should be   12.5%

    so I got about half of what I was suppose to get (for both 3* and 2*), I would say it has been a while the drop rate of (2* and 3*) is less than what is expected to be, I don't remember my previous pulls, but I know was not good too.

    I will keep tracking, try to collect another 95 standard tokens or so and pull it again, logically I should get at least as I suppose to get or better.

    the thing about odds, sometime it works against you, but also sometimes should work better for you.


    Keep tracking as it usually levels out, after 2213 tokens I got:

    54 3* (2.4% instead of 2.3) + 46 bonus

    320 2* (14.5% instead of 14)

    1839 1* (83.1% instead of 83.7)

    but I do remember the 3* to lag behind for a long time before catching up.

    right now i have 79 standard tokens, i will hoard more later pull it, and post here the results (if I did not forget), logically should get better.

    Yes they are. I just opened 110 of them and received 2 3* tokens, which is average.  Probability bias here, but I tend to get 3* in standard tokens in batches.  Will go for weeks without getting one and then will get 4-5 in one to two weeks of standards.

    I also got 14 2* which was slightly above average when I opened those tokens.

    I have also received 2 4* covers ever in 3 years of playing from standard tokens.  Not sure if they can even give you 4* covers any more.

    Yesterday I opened 48 standard tokens. 43 of them were 1* covers, three of them were 2* and two of them were 3* plus bonus covers.

    I do with chance like 2-3%... plus bonus 3* every time, of course.

    this time my odds is better than last time.

    overall, from 186 std. tokens:

    still next time should be above the rate.

    I have been getting 3*s and the occasional 4*.  I remember the 4* because it was (finally) my 14th Iceman so I could champ him.

    I'm curious, how long ago was that? Consensus seems to be they yanked the option to pull 4*s from there some time ago.

    Personally, I've been playing for about 1.5 years and never pulled a 4* from a Standard.

    I’ve heard rumors of 4*s from ST but I think it’s not true or no longer true. I’ve definitely never seen one in 1.5 years playing.

    I can't confirm this, but I seem to remember pulling one or two 4* covers from STs. That was back in the first year.

    You might want to send a ticket. a 3* from a Standard token should always yield a Bonus Hero. Are you sure it's not 50:50?


    I started tracking my STs before BH, so I have a few 3* without BH on my list.

    And I've never seen a 4* from a ST in almost 2 years of playing.

    It was true at one point, but were talking years ago at this point. I've tracked over 7000 ST pulls across 20+ seasons, no 4*s. But I remember pulling a Fury early on in my tenure of the game from a ST and eventually selling it to make room for a 3* with more than one cover.
