    Imagine that, just timed properly with the burnout displayed on the forums. They had this waiting the whole time.

    Very exciting!

    It’s it for a legend or prime? 
    First, congrats on not being the 1st person to ask this question.

    Hmm. Now that I've had time to exhale a couple of times. The counter being reset at 20 is interesting. If you look at the odds, it doesn't compute. Or maybe I'm missing something.
    The Villians box has primes at 5% so the counter at 20 would suggest that it's set for primes. The 'nom nom' box has .5%, 2.5%, and 10% respectively for legends/primes/bxp players. Yet, the counter is also set at 20 so I'm not sure how that would work. Full disclose, I've had a very busy morning and my coffee is still full. Anyways, thoughts?

    Now, who wants to bet CVC boxes as rewards don't apply to the timer.
  • bayoubengalbayoubengal Registered Users, Member 981 Posts
    Thoughts are WAY to many players in the boxes

    @superbaldy77 I can say in good faith that the boxes from CvC count. Or at least, they have. :)

    Damn a prime lefty with good WOH skills is like a unicorn. There are good lefty legends around but I would need to remortgage the house to make them useful in WOH.....

    Guaranteed 'at least  a prime after 20 boxes

    @DFBB, it's all good. Sorry for being negative. Just trying to hold back my excitement and play it cool ;^)
  • dustyhunksdustyhunks Registered Users, Member 1,672 Posts
    Why would they? They're not purchased boxes. At least that's my thinking.

    I’m sure that we will find out at 1 when people start splurging
  • TheMadhatterTheMadhatter Registered Users, Member 16 Posts
    Says prime or better on the 20th box for both boxes, wonder how many more buy the Nom Nom for 250 gold as it would cost half the gold to hit 20.
  • DFBBDFBB Registered Users, Moderators, Member, Moderator 6,602 Posts
    @superbaldy77 It's all good man. It's actually a very good question. Now that the cat is out of the bag, it's safe to disclose that the pity timer has been on for a little while. They just wanted to test the waters and make sure things go well before making it official. My friends and I tested it and it has worked as advertised.

    Was really bummed when I saw Gallo was vs LHP instead of RHP

    Yeah - he was a solid prime for me last year around this time and had vs RH skill then......

    Anyone know if we hit the twitter vote thing? Will be interesting to see if those boxes count also if/when they are gifted

    Only one prime/legend (Boggs) with the RH skill this weekend, Glu knows what alot of us are looking for.

    Been chasing a good lefty bat for a while.  Spent 50K gold chasing Devers last month, ended up with Schwarber who is decent but not as good.  Badly need an upgrade from him

    I was desperately trying for the other unicorn and pull a switch hitter, I ended up with Grandal..so Im happy?

    If you're looking for a WOH guy that Jorge Soler will get the job done vs both L and R pitchers. I know a lot of you guys get hung up on having a natural platoon advantage, but in my experience it doesn't matter. Was using lefty McNeil against lefty Ryu forever with no issues and use righty POTM Hiura against righties with no issues, for a couple examples.

    I know that Joey Gallo would not have chosen those skills for himself. Maybe Glu should start to ask what would Joey Gallo do?

    Yep - hes the one I am hoping to see when I open cvc boxes

    I went through my roster today and cut all the bloat...2 Prime hitters now only if they are 420 Ill level them and work until capped...this is the jumping off point of my season. I was prime heavy and they were useless..Hope this is the turning point for my team.

    I’m glad the pity timer has been released but I’m kind of disappointed by it. Sorry hate to be a downer. Guaranteed prime or better... I assumed as the vip letter stated “coolest” prize in box that you would receive the best player in the box. This timer is simply still giving you a chance at the best player in the box but only a guaranteed prime. Nothing is ever quite like they say it will be 😕
