Shadows of the Galaxy Pull Rates: Is a Pack Worth Ripping?

Right now: the best rip in Shadows of the Galaxy is the Booster Pack at $3.29 against $1.58 of expected pulls — a −59% margin after ~15% selling fees. Figures refresh every two hours.

Shadows of the Galaxy, released July 12, 2024, is Star Wars Unlimited's underworld set — bounty hunters, crime syndicates, and Showcase treatments of leaders like The Mandalorian and Boba Fett as the marquee chase. The pack recipe matches every SWU set: 16 cards, two rare slots that each upgrade to a Legendary about 8% of the time, and one foil slot.

The chase math is straightforward. About 15% of packs contain at least one Legendary, foil Legendaries land in roughly 1 in 50 packs, and Showcase variants in about 1 in 33. Everything else is common and uncommon filler that barely registers in the EV. Because the set has been widely available since launch, its rare tier trades cheap, and recent snapshots have shown packs returning well under their own cost — this is one of the weaker rips in the game.
