How did you get it in two months? So far my strategy is to get 60% of all M19 mythics from premium packs then craft the other 40% or less until I have all mythics that you could get within the specific Elite+ pack. With 1200 pinkies you should get a BSZ for sure then. What is your strategy? Ankther important question: is there always the same combination of mythics and masterpieces in those three specific M19 Elite+ packs or does the combination change?

I can't speak to his strategy, but you seem to have the general gist of it down.Pull mythics from Premium Packs and crafting until you have all (or almost all) of the mythics from a specific Elite Pack that you want, and then pull the masterpieces.All Elite Packs contain the same cards every time they rotate though (with exclusive mythics being added into their set's specific packs once the next set is released), so you can plan ahead a bit.It is still extremely luck based, though, unless you already have every other card in the pack (which seems to happen a lot if there is a specific card you want)

When BSZ hit Vault, I spent all crystal into M19 Premium pack then pull BSZ EP. But i didnt craft M19 at 7500. it was too pricy. (hence, some of my friend did and he got BSZ sooner than me for 6 weeks!)P.S. I pulled 7 shots (2800 jewels) for BSZ EP (2 shot for every 3 week BSZ visit). got 3 mythics from Premium pack during the journey.
Interesting! But how did you manage to get 1.400 jewels per month if you’ve spent 2.800 jewels total in managed to get it in two months?
Mojo said: Saved 1600 pinks over last two months since I’ve been back. Spent $50 on M19 packs and still no BSZ. Congrats to others who got it you can continue playing. Being in plat tier without it makes game unplayable. No matter how much thought or prep you put into a deck it doesn’t matter. Everyone who who does not have BSZ will come to this same conclusion eventually. People can can say they are quitting for other reasons, but I think the mass exodus is due to the helplessness people feel from facing this card. Ive been playing games for 45 years. I like a challenge. As long as winning at some point is possible and here it is not. New logo should be BSZ pg. MTG should be removed from the name because no one is going to gather.
starfall said: Does BSZ rotate out of Standard after WAR? Or is it just XLN block that goes?<edit> I checked. If we follow paper, Standard rotation will happen after WAR, and after Core Set 2020, at the end of 2019; with the delay in sets carried over to MTGPQ, that probably means that BSZ will remain in Standard until the start of 2020.Plenty of time to use BSZ in Standard, and tbh you'll get plenty of use out of it in Legacy as well (MTGPQ does not prioritize Standard over Legacy like paper does).So, if you're going to spend orbs or jewels, make sure you do so to narrow down your chances of getting BSZ out of that Elite pack (remember you get guaranteed non-duplicates from the 400j Elite packs!) Spending crystals probably won't make much difference either way, as the chances of pulling a Mythic or MP are quite small.
stikxs said: They had a blog post outlining the rotation back with 3.0 or 3.1 I think, but it will be when the 3rd set from now comes out. When a set releases and brings the standard total up to 9 the oldest 4 get retired and it drops down to 5. XLN, RIX, DOM, M19, GRN, RNA, next set, next set, set triggering rotation.
