I just send their customer support an email 5 minutes ago telling them how I found in the MM17 box I got today 10 (TEN) double rare/mythic cards out of 24, 8 rare and 2 mythics.
What the actual fuck? What were the odds?
There's no way this box is legit. I mean, I know it's not been tampered with (all the seals were fine), how the fuck can Wizards have products like this pass quality control for a motherfucking over €200 product?
And obviously it had to be shit rares and mythics (except for Damnation), no sir, you can't have two Lilianas, you get two Domris in the mythic slots and you're gonna like it!
I asked them for a replacement box with a very polite email, what are my chances of actually getting it?
Probabilities. Also, you're very unlikely to make your money back with those boxes. Enjoy your cards.
Daniel Jackson
Dude, they have a quality control to AVOID that shit like this happens. The only thing I've seen happening in some openings on YT was ONE double rare.
There's no fucking way this box is legit, the percentage is literally 0.0...% considering supposedly they check.
I can understand the foil and the normal one, I can understand one double cards but I cannot understand more than the 40% of the rare/mythic slots being double cards and I won't accept it silently.
Don't forget this is "premium" cardboard sold for over €200.
Oliver Brooks
Also, honestly I couldn't care less about the cards I pull as long as I can pull a pack fresh Liliana. The EV can be €150 for all I care if I can just pull that. A double Domri that occupies the Mythic slot is bullshit. It's an offense to the customers who pay so much for their products.
Dominic Perry
isnt that a good thing?
Wyatt James
>let's waste all the rare and mythic slots with double bulk rares instead of having chances of getting actually sought after cards
It's not?
Ryan Hughes
Poor baby didn't get the card he wanted from the bullshit card pack lottery.
The chance of you getting a replacement box is nil.
Ryder Russell
>The chance of you getting a replacement box is nil. Then I'm gonna call out their quality control and customer support on every single existing social media I've never bothered to use before today.
You don't seem to understand how booster boxes work. Do you know why people accept bulk cards? Because they know they will get some decent cards together with them. If all your rare and mythic slots are occupied by double bulk cards then you get assravaged. For the same reason you won't find 2 Tarmogoyfs or Lilianas in the same box. It happens but it's very rare, just like it happens that you will find the same bulk rare twice. Now, what will NEVER EVER happen is to get a box with two Lilianas and two of every fetchland.
Why should I accept to get 8 double bulk rares/mythics if the opposite cannot happen?
Colton Hill
>willingly spending money on unknown product
Jason Green
>I gambled and lost so now I am trying to get casino support to replace my lost money
this thread is pretty obvious bait but please keep going, it's gold either way
Chase Rivera
Again, that's not how it works. Wizards has a quality control that makes sure you don't get double cards. At least not 45% of them.
I like to open packs and open pack fresh cards more than playing, yes. Got a problem with that?
Daniel Mitchell
Dude. You played the lottery and lost. Feel free to cry about it. If you were looking to just make your money back you would not be buying MM boxes. Do I cry when a scratchcard does not make me a winner?
Luke Torres
WOTC: Fuck the players.
Nathaniel Murphy
Whether or not you're baiting you're still legitimately retarded.
Isaiah Ortiz
There's a huge difference between getting a double bulk rare and having 45% of the slots be double bulks. There are no boxes with two Lilianas, two Goyfs and two of every fetchland. Boxes like that simply don't exist because Wizards makes sure they don't.
It's NOT a lottery.
Less than you.
Juan Williams
>Got a problem with that? Me? No, I didn't make this thread.
Andrew Reed
Their quality control probably fucked up, yeah, but there's still a nonzero chance of this box being totally legit. Tiny, very tiny, but nonzero.
So yeah there's no way you're getting a replacement.
Nathan Rodriguez
>what is reading comprehension That's not my problem as well.
Yeah, I acknowledge that but come on. It gotta be in the range of 0,0something
Have you ever seen a Masters box like this? Ever? Hell, have you ever seen a recent set's box like this? All I've ever seen are a couple of double rares in 36 (!) packs booster boxes. I don't think I've ever seen a double mythic but I might be wrong. Not counting the foil slot, of course.
Jonathan Ward
I work in customer service (in a completely unrelated field), and and I just got to say that we talk about people like you. You might be the most exciting (but dreadful) thing happening this whole week. That said, we are more on your side than the companies. We are just as helpless as you, and that I am the guy getting paid to tell you that the company fucked you over. We are the messengers, not the fuckers.
Don't be the guy who keeps track on names of the employees. That's just creepy.
As a fellow Magic player, I am sorry for your loss. As the guy listening to you being upset for 25 minutes, I would appreciate if you don't scream. It won't help.

Dominic Martinez
This is not what I payed for. Boxes like this should not exist, not because I say so but because Wizards makes sure they don't. As simple as that. I'm always polite. I don't want cards from your filthy, fat hands, thanks. I never let go.
Andrew Hughes
>What the actual fuck? What were the odds? Pretty good, actually.
Jeremiah Martinez
Over the past year or so, wizards has expanded too greedily and their supply chain has become all fucked up, and QC near nonexistent as a result If I was at home I'd post the pics of every rare from the dragon commander precon I got that don't have any of the little foil stickers at the bottom

Christ, you're one of those people who thinks missing a 95% got chance shot in xcom is bullshit too, aren't you? Why the Fuck don't people understand that as long as the chance is nonzero it's a legitimate possibility?
Colton Moore
>You don't seem to understand how booster boxes work.
No, I understand exactly how they work. It seems to me that you are the one who does not.
Carter Jenkins
>Show me any official statement from wizards saying your guaranteed to not get doubles. I can show you the facts. Look at ALL the box openings, get a box yourself and tell me how many times you see two double cards. I'll tell you: never. Why yes, keep ignoring what I say.
Show me a box with a double mythic, none of them foil. You can't.
Now, I know that everyone likes to insult people who actually buy Magic products but that doesn't mean you can decide to ignore reality.
Dylan Ortiz
Go on youtube and watch dozens of people open dozens of boxes, and yeah, you will find double rares and occasionally double mythics.
You are not guaranteed good rares or no doubles. As long as you keep bitching, people will keep pointing and laughing at you as you waste money. If you want specific cards, you buy singles. Opening packs for cards is for drafting or gambling for the chase rares. You are not guaranteed anything.
Kayden Robinson
I would be angry if I paid money for a pack of cards and when I opened it they were all the same ones.
I get where you're coming from man. I don't play any TCGs but it's just shitty QC.
If I bought a bag of assorted jellybeans and when I opened them up they were all the gross lemon flavor, I'd be annoyed too.
William Carter
>Go on youtube and watch dozens of people open dozens of boxes, and yeah, you will find double rares and occasionally double mythics. >double rares Yeah. 2. Not 10.
Nathan Sullivan
OP pulled the cards in his picture from multiple packs. He's just a whiny eurocuck.
Brayden Taylor
>Look at ALL the box openings, and tell me how many times you see two double cards. Well, I'm seeing one at the top of this thread. That's more than 'never'
Face the facts: wizards doesn't guarantee you won't get doubles. They never said they did, the product you bought doesn't say it does. The picks ate randomized, meaning shit like this can and obviously does happen. That's how randomized products work. It's by design. You might HATE that it works that way, but in the end you still bought a product that made no promises and are complaining that you got exactly what you paid for: randomization.
If you want a specific card, buy singles or premades that include them.
Isaiah Barnes
>I like collecting more than playing >but I am extremely upset that I didn't get the good cards for the game I don't play!
Eli Reed
Multiple packs in the same box. >The picks ate randomized Again. They're fucking not, for the billionth time. IT'S NOT RANDOM. That's not what I said but I collect good cards, yeah. Your point?
Hudson Fisher
>shitty QC it isn't QC's job to put a good mix of cats in every box so entitled manchildren can be happy. In fact if NO box contained doubles, that would indicate the boxes aren't sufficiently random, which WOULD be a QC issue.
Again, you paid for a random product, you got a random product.
Oliver Martin
>Again, you paid for a random product, you got a random product. That's the point, this obviously is NOT a random product. It simply statistically can't be.
Daniel Foster
> IT'S NOT RANDOM A-fucking-gain, show me any statement by wizards guaranteeing that you won't get doubles.
Kayden Martinez
FYI, the odds of randomly rolling a d6 and getting the results 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 is equal to rolling 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 ,1. Or 1, 5, 4, 3, 6, 3. Or any other string of 6 numbers 1 through 6. All are equally random. Each rare slot has a certain number of rares (lets call it X) that can fill it, and figuring out what rare is in that slot may as well be equivalent to rolling a dX. Your just bitching that you rolled 15 15, 12 12, 20 20, 1 1, 2 2. L2probability
Jayden Collins

REEEEE YOU FUCKING RETARD WIZARDS SAID THEY'D NEVER DO THAT GO LOOK IT UP KEKFAGGOT. THEY ARE OBLIGATED TO MAKE SURE I AM SATISFIED WITH THE PULLS FROM MY PACKS OR ELSE THE PRODUCT IS NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE PIP PIP CHEERIO COLOUR ALUMINIUM.
Aaron Hughes
> statistically can't be Unlikely doesn't mean impossible. There's a fucking massive difference between a .01% chance and a 0% chance, that difference being that the former CAN HAPPEN. Remember you are one fucking person opening one fucking box among, what, thousands, HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of boxes produced?
Read up on the law of large numbers, but tldr: you do something enough times and things that are statistically unlikely to happen eventually become statistically basically guaranteed. It's a tiny chance for ONE box to be like yours, but wizards products so many, it's basically guaranteed that one or more would EVENTUALLY be produced.
You wouldn't be complaining if you got ten copies of your favorite mythic, even if that was just as unlikely. You played the lottery and got a bad draw.
Luke Ross
ITT we learn that user doesn't understand the concept of probability
Gabriel Murphy
It's a lottery, retard.
Jack Morgan
>hurr durr I. Said. It's. Not. Random.
If it was you would see it much more often and with more than just ONE double card, just like YOU said, especially in a small set with 36 booster packs. Guess what? It never fucking happens to pull more than TWO double cards.
A goddamn genius.
This is something that should interest everyone who plays the game. Instead all I got was >he bought a box. Not the point. It's not just that. There's also the variable of the practice of not having double cards that WOTC applies. >You wouldn't be complaining if you got ten copies of your favorite mythic, even if that was just as unlikely. That does not happen.
No, it's not, retard.
Luke Gray
>what are my chances of actually getting it? Literally zero you mongoloid
Charles Lopez
If it's not a lottery why do they post odds on the packaging?
Robert Hernandez
How not. Explain. Illustrate your thought process, you mongoloid faggot.
Christian Gomez
Why the FUCK would it interest me, as a MTG player? I'm not a downs child who still buys boosters.
In fact, the shittier boosters get the sooner limited can die and the game can get better.
Michael Campbell
When I'll get my brand new virgin box with an excuse card by rhicard Garfield I'll let you know.
If it's a lottery why can't you get two masterpiece cards in the same box?
Read the thread, you mongoloid faggot.
If no one opens boxes you can't get the singles at a low price because the request is higher than the demand. HURR
Jace Peterson
>There's also the variable of the practice of not having double cards that WOTC applies. For the third time NO SUCH PRACTICE EXISTS. Again, I fucking dare you to find any statement from wizards confirming the existence of such a practice. I 100% guarantee that if you find such a thing the entire thread will shut up because it will be unequivocal proof that you are correct. But I also guarantee you that you won't find anything confirming it, because it's a fucking fantasy that either you deluded yourself into believing or your friends 'had a dad that worked at Nintendo' and he lied to you about their policies
Luke Wright
People HAVE gotten two masterpiece cards in the same box
Oliver Ortiz
...
Gabriel Baker
It. Is. Random.
Go take a fucking statistics course you mongoloid.
Just because your undeveloped little brain doesn't understand the word "random" doesn't mean that the result you got from your box isn't random.
Look at a lottery where a bunch of balls are drawn out of a big machine. Like the Powerball here in the US. The odds of the machine spitting out the balls 1 2 3 4 5 and 6 is equally as likely as the most recently drawn numbers of 24, 45, 55, 56, 57, and 19.
You can get two masterpiece in a single box. Its just not very likely. I'm pretty sure there's footage on alpha investments on youtube where someone got two invocations from one box of hour of devastation.
Levi Davis

Justin Cooper
If it's all randomized how come you can map boxes?
>For the third time NO SUCH PRACTICE EXISTS They do.
Proof? From a quick search I found nothing.
It's not random because wizards controls the outcome to an extent. Just stop.
Jaxon Flores
And if they do control it, so what?
Them's the rules. If you don't like em, don't play.
A facetious title because of people like you, you cuck.

I'm claiming it's not a case, it's a human mistake. The chances of getting a masterpiece when opening a box are 1:6. The chances to get 2 masterpieces from the same box are 1:36. Now tell me why there aren't more cases of that happening.
Spoiler: it's because you won't get 2 masterpieces inside a box each 36 because of quality control.
Parker Turner
