Phantom Rage Yu-Gi-Oh! Pull Rates & Booster Box EV

Right now: the best rip in Phantom Rage is the Booster Box [1st Ed] (24 packs) at $49.80 against $45.82 of expected pulls — a −22% margin after ~15% selling fees, and a 17% chance it actually pays for itself. Figures refresh every two hours.

Phantom Rage is a standard Yu-Gi-Oh! core booster from November 6, 2020: nine cards per pack, one foil hit, 24 packs per box, five Starlight Rares above ten Secret Rares. The sealed listings here are the 1st Edition run. As one of the older Starlight-era core sets, its value rests on a small number of chase Starlights rather than on the playable Secret Rares.

The foil slot is where the pack's value lives: Super Rare about 65%, Ultra Rare roughly 1 in 4, Secret Rare near 1 in 14, and a Starlight or Quarter Century Secret around 1 in 100. The Phantom Knights of Torn Scales is the headline Starlight, followed by Tri-Brigade Ferrijit the Barren Blossom and Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS - Sky Thunder; Secret Rare printings of both add a floor.

You can buy 1st Edition loose packs or the 24-pack 1st Edition booster box. Boxes are the sensible unit if you want the Starlight lottery to mean anything; single packs are mostly a Super Rare in a wrapper. The rates are community estimates, not Konami's, so treat the odds as ballpark and check the fee-adjusted margins in the live table below.
