What’s your Favorite Crystal Opening Method?

Riptide

I personally prefer the Dreamin method, where I just get what I want.

Agent_X_zzz

Open, cry, sleep, repeat.

Lose all expectation. Spin. Say something like "I don't care whoever I pull but I'll appreciate an Apocalypse". If it lands on someone oyu don't want, then it's alright, move one. If it lands on a good one, then it will feel waaay better. This actually worked for me for Doom, Apocalypse, Corvus, and more. It doesn't work for Ghost and Nick Fury though. Lol.

hit open crystal button, expect disappointment

Hows the saying go?
Prepare for the worst and get the worst? That doesnt sound right...

What's it all about? I just pop all of them, to save myself from ridiculous rolls. I spin, I'm cursed for sure to see a Nick it Doom nearby and it lands on ultron.

I find I like my crystal openings better when I remove all expectations, close my eyes, and pop them. That 6* IP still hurt, but it would've hurt more if I had hope...

Skillful_star

Hopeful but no expectations

Macvill

I got amazing pullls like 6* Corvus and 6* Claire Voyant ( in main account) using the Pep1000 method, lately doesnt really work anymore for me, i got great pulls when i dont expect nothing, when i really want a specific champ i never get it anyway, so spect nothing and If you got a good champ great if not just rinse and repeat.

Just get my sis to open them, she got me a red mags yesterday

in case of a crystal disappointment emergency:
Pop, Drop, and Roll

GinjabredMonsta

It used to be to have my girlfriend open them...but now we both have some mixed luck. Sometimes I count to 8 Mississippi and then stop the spin. Got me a 6* SG from the shattered heart cav today.

Grean

I always keep my expectations low. for act 7 completion I was expecting an iron package, but I got a killmonger, so I was over the moon

I usually just drag it counter clockwise for one full circle, then let it spin. That's for Cavs, Grandmasters, 5s and 6s. I pop 4 stars and below

jdrum663

I usually pop them, that way the disappointment doesn't last as long.

TrashPanda12

Depends on the day, some days I pop, sometimes I spin. Before either, I say the top 3 choices as if kabam is listening to me through the phone lol

BuffBeast

I get pretty decent luck on normal crystals, so there’s not much of a method. If you’re talking cavs though, I just give up on all hope I’ll get something good but still have a small chunk of excitement when I see a good 5*/6* pop up

Disbanded_pens

It used to be "Spin, Teased by rollover, Rage, Smash phone, Buy phone". Now it's pop. Cheaper.

Kerneas

Crystals I pop, then cover the screen qith my hand and slowly uncover what it is (so I know if its dupp first).

As for my expectations, I always hope. I don't count with getting sth good, but hope that that day is my lucky day. I am not very disappointed from bad pulls, because they are inevitably followed by good ones (rng...).

I also try guessing which champion will I pull. Sometimes I just feel it'll be someone and I guessed it right couple times

Scarcity27

I usually pop lower level crystals (PHC, 3* and occasionally 4*). I spin the rest. Sometimes I get my friend on the call and ask her to tell me when to tap (her/my luck's usually bad, but she did get me a 5* BWCV). Recently opened a 6* and decided to try something new, so I counted to 10 before tapping the crystal. Got a Storm PX. Super happy about it, because she is my only non-dud 6*, but she can't replace my 5* Archangel sadly.

Connect

Probably after writing this my luck will go really horrible so when it comes to phc I can on average get 1 4* a week for a phc.

I got a falcon 2 thursdays ago then got deablo and just Friday I got a 4* nexus crystal

So for now I’m going good n anything but a 2* is nice from a phc

Also my 4* came from phc shard crystal

Rockypantherx

Normally I just count to 5 and tap.

For more important crystals, I resort to more...satanic practices. Goat sacrifice works a treat.

Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it, it got me 3 ghosts in 7 featured 6*s, plus a Killmonger, 2 red goblins and a Prof X in the same batch

silentag

Used to be spin, now I just pop unless they’re 6*s, I spin those out

Jacob72518

I personally wait until it’s raining at 3:57pm and open with my left big toe, let it spin for 20 seconds. I get so distracted, the trash doesn’t bother me.

Qacob

What I like to do with big openings is the first one I'll quick tap, if I get someone good I'll do the same for the next one, when I get someone bad I switch to letting the next one spin out. Then I just keep alternating between the two when ever I get someone bad.

MadTing123

Just pop them and get the torture over with
