Only good for duping and getting champs for arena.
Someone care to do the math and show it. Im bored today.
Some people think the odds are one in N^3, or in this case about one in 216,000. That's wrong, because those are the odds of pulling a specific champ three times in a row. If the odds of pulling, say Elektra three times in a row is one in 216,000, the odds of pulling *any* champ three times in a row can't also be that. The odds of pulling any champ three times in a row would be the odds of pulling Elektra three times in a row, plus the odds of pulling Falcon three times in a row, plus etc etc etc. If there are N different champs in the crystal, the odds of pulling any one specific champ three times in a row would be one in N^3, but then there are N ways to do that (one for each champ), which means the odds of doing it for any champ would be N x (1/N^3) which is 1/N^2, the number given above. Two different lines of thought which reach the same correct answer.
