Hello All!

Does anyone know if the codes that you get with booster packs give you random cards, or if the specific cards are hardwired into the code?

I know if I have a Plasma Freeze code, it'll give me Plasma Freeze cards, but I am very curious about if the cards are random ones from the Plasma Freeze deck, or specific cards, based on the code.

Chances are that they're randomly generated at the time of code entry. Being tied to a specific code would require quite a bit more labor overall for each pack than a random generation would, since they'd have to assign the contents of a booster pack for each code generated. I don't work for TPCi, though, so I cannot say this is indeed how they do things.

hi sorry if this seems like bump but i have recently used over 148 codes online and i get the feeling it is just random at one point i thought you got a only copy of what ever was in the pack so i tested this out turns out it that is not the case lol
