Isn't 200 HP usually the "daily deal" price? You're never going to get 250 daily deals out of this store, so you'd need to look at the non discounted cost if you're pulling singles. But if you're pulling so many tokens, it'll be cheaper to pull 10- or 40-packs, which also have better odds.
If your goal is to get one Prof X cover, the 1:166 odds mean you'd need to pull 115 tokens to have a 50% chance of success. It's not 83 pulls, since the odds for each pull are independent and its also possible that you could receive multiple Prof X covers in those pulls. You could reasonably make these pulls through three 40-packs bought at the daily deal price. You could even do this twice for the duration of the store.
To reach the 50% mark with a regular legendary token release store, you'd need 14 pulls, or 350 CP. So I guess the question is whether you value the HP cost of three 40 packs higher than 350 CP or not.
Also keep in mind that Prof X will presumably be in legendary tokens on the 6th September. Getting the character now will likely only give you an advantage for the one story event.

I don’t buy daily deals or rng deals like this one. I play with my son and I don’t want him to see that form of gambling as an acceptable way to play games. Everyone else can continue buying as makes them happy. I’m happy for my son to save his money and waste it on a skin, I’m not happy for him to buy a token with a 1 in 250 chance of x.
DAZ0273 said: As for Prof X - somebody mentioned his power being like Lockjaw but it seems to be more like Green Goblin's purple as it isn't board majority dependent and each colour has a different effect.As for the colours, I get they line up with the X-Men in questions powers...except blue. Sure 4* Cyclops does have a blue power but it doesn't operate in the way this power does - would it have maybe been better to have Iceman and a stun?

So would you feel different if if they changed regular store tokens into vaults with a million items? You see everything you could possibly get so it's very transparent but the chances to get what you really want are small. To me that's how the normal tokens work, only I actually have a shot at bonus heros too.
