    If you understand how statistics work, then you know the answer is:

    Yes, it is very possible.

    What is the % chance of getting the featured 5*? We don't know, but commonly assumed about 1%.
    The chance that you will not pull a featured after 10 tries at 1% is : 0.90438207500880449001, or 90.4%

    So, not only is it very possible, it is very likely!

    IT's commonly assumed as being 20%

    Yet, no one knows for sure. So I'm not sure why this random number is being thrown around and people just accepting the fact that it is 20%.

    There's enough video evidence of openings to gather a pretty decent sample size. If you look at multiple Youtubers who have posted every 5* featured opening and add up the openings you can calculate the probability.

    That's funny. If there were only 5 potential champs the odds would be 20% (1/5). There are more champs than that.

    A modder a while back opened hundreds of featured 5* crystals and since that is the largest single piece of data the community has accepted the result of 22% featured champs vs regular champs, the community round it down to 20% for the sake of simplicity

    That's not how probability works it doesn't matter how many champs are in there the odds of a featured will always be the same. Don't look at it as individual champions but rather as 3 pools of champions, 20% for featured, 78% for the basic and 2% for the subfeatured

    But that's not how the crystals work. Your odds for a feature are set, they don't change each time they add a champ in there

    Assuming a 20% chance at featured, the chances of not getting a featured after 10 tries does drop down to: 0.1073741824, or 10.7% chance, which is definitely much better odds.

    However, the chance on this actual pull to not get a feature would still remain 80%.

    (20% sounds more likely. I was stuck thinking of pulling a 4* from a PHC, which seems like 1%)

    Of course it's possibile, just like it was possible for me to find 3 Juggernaut in a row! Random they said... Gimme a break!

    Same I got juggs 3 times in a row after saving for each one and lost it my friend was there to witness my suffering.
  • SlyCat42SlyCat42 Member Posts: 504 ★★
    The chances of pulling featured are always something like 1 in 5 (20% or so) chance. Not sure on the exact numbers, but there have been people who ran the calculations.

    So, yes it's possible to hit the non featured 80% chance multiple times. I am currently 1 out of 3 on featureds myself. Planning on trying for 1 more in November!

    I'm 0-12. Probably be 0-14 after I go for Blade. Know people who pull them consistently at 50% or better. One would think regression to the mean would balance out the luck but it seems like the lucky keep getting lucky and the unlucky keep getting screwed. Almost as if the drop rate is not the same for every account. Maybe it is and I'm just jaded from **** pulls lol.

    This is correct, chances of being 0/10 is 10.7%. Certainly nothing unreasonable

    Careful...it’s sacrilege to suggest we might not all have the same odds.

    It is wrong,we are not talking about premium crydtal here but a featured one and many top tier champions have confirmed after their countless crystal opening that featured chance is flat 25%.
  • LovingkidLovingkid Member Posts: 330 ★★
    That also means that ur 0/10 is due to 75% ,which is methmatically very possible.

    Regression to the mean would happen if you open a lot of crystals, not 10 or 20.

    I’m 3/34. I had a very long old spell from getting Voodoo and GwenPool, my first two features to then missing dozens in a row. The real question is why we keep throwing shards away and trying.

    Then they drag out Blade...
