LDS3 Legendary Duelists: Season 3
Is a booster box of LDS3 worth opening?
On average, no: selling the cards from a LDS3 box would get you $7.92, 63% of the $12.60 it costs. A typical box gives $6.60 and only 16% of boxes get your money back. If you're after a specific card, buying it as a single is usually cheaper.
How reliable the rates are: good (several sources that agree).
LDS3 pull rates

Where the numbers come from
The expected value adds up, for each rarity group, the copies in a box times the average price of its cards (the English card, with its TCGplayer price or, if there isn't one, Cardmarket's converted). The simulation opens 10,000 boxes with the same rates.
Collector box with fixed contents: 1 Secret Rare and 2 packs of 18 cards (1 regular Ultra, 2 colored Ultras and 15 commons each). Here the box is those 2 packs.
