Live Break Rules

Break Rules & Policy

1. What You Are Purchasing

You are purchasing a slot in a live opening of a Sports or Collectible Card Game Box. You are not purchasing a sealed box. Each slot entitles you to the cards of a specific card "Type" (e.g., Fire, Water, Dragon) or specific teams, which are determined by a virtual horse race and draft during the live stream.

2. The Horse Race & Draft Process

  • Scheduling: Once all slots are sold, a broadcast time will be posted within 48 hours. We go live on Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and Twitch.
  • The Race: We use Horse Race Tests to determine the "Draft Order."
  • The Draft: 1st place in the race gets 1st choice of type/team, 2nd place gets 2nd choice, etc.
  • Proxy Picks: If you are not present in the chat during the draft, the breaker will select the best available type/team for you to keep the break moving and ensure you receive the best possible value.

3. The Trainer Randomization

All "Trainer" cards (Items, Supporters, Stadiums) from the entire UPC will be pooled together. At the end of the break, we will spin a wheel with all 10 participants' names. One winner takes all the Trainers.

4. Shipping

A flat shipping fee is charged at checkout. This covers the safe shipment of all your "Hits" (Holos, ex, Ultra Rares, etc.) in sleeves and top-loaders, as well as bulk cards in sleeves and team bags.

5. No Refunds

Due to the nature of live breaks, all sales are final once the horse race has begun.

6. House Participation

The House reserves the right to participate in the break. One slot is reserved for the House in the horse race, and the House will retain ownership of any unsold slots.

7. Skunk Protection & Minimum Guarantees

  • For TCG Breaks: If your assigned Type results in zero "Hits" (Holo Rare or better), we will include one (1) additional factory-sleeved booster pack in your shipment at no extra charge.
  • For Sports Breaks: If your assigned team yields fewer than five (5) cards, we will use our private collection to fill out your team bag to ensure you receive a full mailer.

8. Multiple Entries & Slots

Customers are encouraged and permitted to purchase multiple slots. Each slot purchased counts as a separate entry (Horse) in the race. If you own multiple winning positions, you will receive multiple picks during the Draft order.
