So I had a fun hour yesterday buying potions and opening some packs.  If you've been following my posts, I've been talking about the flippening for the last 3 or 4 weeks. And I do follow my own advice. So I accumulated 2300 beta packs. Now that opening quantities is back, I decided it was time to see what I got.

## Burning Down the House (of DEC)

It's interesting that 88 million DEC sounds like a lot. And a new million DEC being produced each day sounds like a lot. But when you start to use the sinks, it doesn't last very long. I had 2300 packs to open. That means 11500 cards. And **that** means I needed 23 gold potions and 23 legendary potions, which costs a little over a million DEC. 

Here's what the DEC supply was before I started buying potions:

And here is after:

It goes fast! And that's even with my guild's 2% discount, which saved me about 20k DEC.

## On to the Opening!

If you watch the whole video, which is ridiculously long, you'll hear some confusion on the peakmonster account numbers. After finishing, I figured out what happened. 

This first screencap is from the beta-filtered account value:

And this screencap is the ending beta-filitered account value:

Net change: 6799 list value / 4966 bid value / 5902 market value / 1,762,525 DEC

Said another way, worst case I broke even, best cast I made 36%, median case I made 12% on my 5k investment.

**I call that a win!**

Of course, being me, I won't be selling. This all goes in the stack and I'll be rolling out several herons accounts here.

Another observation I made was that even with *2300 pacls* it still wasn't enough to max out a regular deck. The beta collection has more cards than alpha, so a given rarity is spread thinner. 

The average result by rarity was:

regular common: 286
regular rare: 111
regular epic: 23
regular legendary: 10
gold common: 12
gold rare: 5.2
gold epic: 0.7
gold legendary: 0.2 

Some other screencaps along the way:

I also had 101 orbs to open, and got a phenomenal 3 gold foil legendaries!
