Zitat Michael Jacob:

How do I go infinite (play Magic online for free)?
A question I get asked often. The answer: play in high Expected Value (ev) events
Outside of release events, Constructed Daily Events are terrific value. These are also four round events, found in the Scheduled events room, and there is one that fires at least every hour.
Entry fee - 6 Tickets
12 Points - 11 Packs
9 Points - 6 Packs
With a pack price of 3.33, you can see that you just have to 3-1 one in three daily events to make a two ticket profit. This is VERY good ev.
An example of bad ev is:
Consider this from the most recent Prerelease of m13:
Entry Fee - 25 Tickets
12 Points - 10 Packs - 33.3
9 POints - 4 Packs - 13.33
6 Points - 1 Pack - 3.33
As you can see here, everybody but the one person who wins loses value. I do not count the value of the cards you open in this calculation. You should NEVER play in prerelease queues.
Release events are some of the highest ev events you can play in.
Consider the m13 Release Events:
Entry Fee 24 Tickets
12 Points - 13 Packs - 43.33
9 Points - 8 Packs - 26.66
6 Points - 3 Packs - 10
Not only does the event cost less, but you also can now 3-1 to garner a profit from the event.
Consider this set of results, which are typical for a slightly above average Magic Player:
10 Events played = 240 Tickets cost
4-0 Record = 1 = 13 packs = 43.3 Ticket
3-1 Record = 4 = 32 Packs = 106.66 Tickets
2-2 Record = 4 = 12 Packs = 40 Tickets
1-3 Record = 1 = 0 Packs = 0 Tickets
That is a total of 190 Tickets in prize winnings, with a total of 60 packs of m13 opened. It is not improbable that you get fifty tickets of value in those packs. Most of the time, you can sell a few rares or mythics to break even, and you then have a siginificant collection, all at no end cost to you. If you wait and hold on to the packs until several weeks after release events are over, you can typical get 3.5 tickets or 3.66 tickets per pack, leading to your profit being even greater.
This is known as "going infinite". Playing Magic at nearly no cost or even a profit to you.
What you want to AVOID are 2 man events. Consider this game:
You and I decide to bet on flipping a coin. When it is heads, you give me 1.50. When it is tails, I give you 1.00 We repeat until you want to stop. Anyone can tell that this is a bad deal. You may win one or two and be ahead, but in the long run you will be losing a lot of money to me. This is the SAME for two man events. Take the most recent set available, Avacyn Restored. Current price per pack in 3.33, with entry fee for the two man event being 2 tickets.
Player 1 -> 2 Tickets
Player 2 -> 2 Tickets
Winner -> 3.33 Tickets
It is abundantly clear that unless your win rate is well over 60%, 2 mans are bad value. And if your win rate IS above 60%, play in REAL events and get way more for your time. Two mans are horrendous value and should be avoided. Go to the Tournament Practice room if you have a craving.
There is no quicker way to annihilate your MODO millions than playing drafts. Going out round 1 in these single elimination events can lead to a 12-13 ticket loss in half an hour. My suggeston is to stay away and watch people stream it instead. Entry Fee 12-13 Tickets NEVER buy packs from Wizards, as players want to resell their winnings, always at a discount.
9 Points - 8 Packs
6 Points - 4 Packs
I only give an example of 8-4s, because 4-3-2-2 gives out only 11 packs, and Swiss is time consuming, but fine if you want to bleed yourself slowly, as even undefeated you are down the two ticket entry fee. Winning one in three drafts is pretty unlikely, and even if you do so you are down a pack and six tickets. Wizard's rake is the real problem here, so I suggest getting the drafting out of your system during Nix Tix events that happen often. These events require ZERO event tickets to enter (only packs are required). |
