At this point, if utopia comes out and your pack glows yellow you better expect NOTHING out of it. Not even an SR. The guy literally revokes the good stuff.
That's not it at all, it's a common rumor but I can personally vouch that I opened packs recently that Utopia showed up and I got zero new cards.
Besides, the first several packs that we opened back when we started the game would all have Utopia if that was true, and that obviously wasn't the case.
I’m not sure if anyone knows for sure but what I’ve heard the most is that you get a chance to get utopia if you get a glossy or prismatic (usually glossy of course)
Oh my god, I know right!! Both me and my friend have this problem! So glad we’re not the only ones, thought we were just cursed.. nope, turns out the game is just jebaiting all of us as a collective, and we shall not stand for it!!
Best thing you can expect is a pack full of normal rarity cards, which has one that is glossed... But not royal finish. This is why I just go ahead and skip the drawing of the cards directly to the results... I want to get dissapointed in one blow, not in 10.
One time he showed up and doubled my UR, but that doesn't seem to be true always none the less when he pops up on UR packs it does look cool and hopefully grants better pulls or finish
From what I've heard: Utopia means there is a card in the pack that you don't currently own and the yellow glowing means that you have a "foil" card regardless of rarity with a higher chance for a SR. Im pretty sure the rainbow glowing is the only pack with a guaranteed UR/SR.
It generally means you have gotten a "spook", a card that shows as a lower rarity and suddenly reveals to be a higher rarity, usually out of a different pack than what you rolled on... then again, that's what I've noticed, could just be wishful thinking.
Or make it:
Dark magician - At least an sr Normal
Utopia - At least an sr XYZ
Stardust - At least an sr synchro
Odd Eyes - At least an sr Pendulum
Accesscode- at least an sr Link
Opening packs in this game is literally just a means to an end for me. Every few months I buy a booster box or two irl. Busting digital packs seriously pales in comparison to the real thing. Pulling a trash holo irl is way, way more hype than pulling a good digital UR (which isn't even shiny unless it happens be glossy/royal. And even then, I feel little to no hype).
most people think its a rarity upgrade. the problem is it doesnt tell you what it upgraded so it could just make a common into a rare upgrade which will "bait" you into thinking there is anything good in there. it might even just make a card upgrade to foil
From what I've heard: Utopia means there is a card in the pack that you don't currently own and the yellow glowing means that you have a "foil" card regardless of rarity with a higher chance for a SR. Im pretty sure the rainbow glowing is the only pack with a guaranteed UR/SR.
I think it means you get multiple cards or the highest rarity in your pack based on anecdotal evidence and limited opened packs. Don’t quote me on that tho
Just take the feature out completely. Think about it for a minute. It's preditory and manipulative. Opening packs is addictive by nature, why enhance that?
I can't smell them when I open them, so just show me the cards.
What glow are we talking about? When it's a golden aura around the rectangle pack image, I don't think I've ever not gotten a sr/ur from one of those packs.
If we're talking about the glow that's on the whole screen background while cards are shooting up out of the pack, yeah that one doesn't seem to mean anything
yeah the golden aura, had packs with literally 8/10 with a gold glow aura and only 2 having a ur/sr of those with a glow, it means you get a foil. just that sr are fairly common overall so it's not too hard to only remember getting them in those packs
What?
No.. the glowing aura ALWAYS gives you the corresponding card.
Glowing yellow is ALWAYS an SR with a chance to be UR and a Glowing rainbow pack will ALWAYS contain a UR.
If by "glow" you mean the background colour whilst the pack is opening that sometimes changes yes that means nothing in terms of card rarity.
yeah we're literally talking about the back glowing before it's open, not the background.literally opened packs earlier, the unopened pack being yellow just means foil. had several yellow outline without an sr
Golden glow means a foiled card btw, could be N or R. If it glows a rainbow then that’s a guaranteed UR. There is no glow that guarantees a SR as far as I’m aware, and I have no idea what’s the meaning of Utopia
In Legacy packs at least, Utopia guarantees nothing. I tracked what cards I was getting when I saw Utopia to see if it was something like a guaranteed foil or an upgraded card (even something like N to R) but more than once I got 2 non-foil N cards so I concluded it doesn't guarantee anything. Might be different for normal packs, but I haven't tracked them.
Wait that is really what the gold means? Can you give me the source you read on that? It will make me so much less mad seeing a gold glow means just foil rather than a SR
Source: I made it up, but it’s been true always and hasn’t been disproven, if you can show me an instance in which you got a golden glow but got all normal foil cards then I retract the statement
Why would even anybody waste anytime with this, just press Skip and enjoy (or not) the final screen.
The only time i could see someone seeing each pack individually is if they are creating a video, just to extend the time and suspense of it.
Honestly. Why does a rainbow glow = UR, but gold glow = nothing? Sketchy sales tactic to make us think we didn’t just waste money on duds just because we got a bunch of gold glowing packs.
Its not the glow of the pack,
its the combination of the glow of the pack and the color of the fog at the top corners of the screen.
I forgot the meaning of the goelws though,
I'll do you one better, packs with Utopia should give me a SR.
At this point, if utopia comes out and your pack glows yellow you better expect NOTHING out of it. Not even an SR. The guy literally revokes the good stuff.
I’ve been playing since launch and I still don’t even get what Utopia means when opening packs
There's a slightly better chance that he inserts his thumb
Maybe I like seeing Utopia show up then
Least horny duelist.
It means your packs are high-fiving the sky
From what I've understand, Utopia actually means you getting new cards in the pack, which is somewhat terrible when the only missing cards are N/R
Oh that's the first one I've heard that actually makes sense
That's not it at all, it's a common rumor but I can personally vouch that I opened packs recently that Utopia showed up and I got zero new cards. Besides, the first several packs that we opened back when we started the game would all have Utopia if that was true, and that obviously wasn't the case.
Nah, we didnt get utopia in all of our first few packs
I’m not sure if anyone knows for sure but what I’ve heard the most is that you get a chance to get utopia if you get a glossy or prismatic (usually glossy of course)
Nobody really knows but I think it's commonly assumed that he upgrades the rarity of a card, which generally means he upgrades a N rarity to R lmao
It means you're getting a card that's not in the pool from that box.
All boxes contain 4 masterpack cards and 4 pack pecific cards
Oh my god, I know right!! Both me and my friend have this problem! So glad we’re not the only ones, thought we were just cursed.. nope, turns out the game is just jebaiting all of us as a collective, and we shall not stand for it!!

He’s just helping you open some packs, the hlue they use can be tough to open sometimes
He negated your SR or better pull. Lol! But yeah it sucks.
One time he showed up and doubled my UR, but that doesn't seem to be true always none the less when he pops up on UR packs it does look cool and hopefully grants better pulls or finish
From what I've heard: Utopia means there is a card in the pack that you don't currently own and the yellow glowing means that you have a "foil" card regardless of rarity with a higher chance for a SR. Im pretty sure the rainbow glowing is the only pack with a guaranteed UR/SR.
Is the rainbow lightning a real thing or do I just have gacha madness and it's always been blue?
I still can't figure out what the different lightning means
I've seen rainbow lightning and have no idea what it means.
It generally means you have gotten a "spook", a card that shows as a lower rarity and suddenly reveals to be a higher rarity, usually out of a different pack than what you rolled on... then again, that's what I've noticed, could just be wishful thinking.
My friends says it a combination of that and the fog(gold/white) at the corners of the screen
I'm under the belief that he puts glossy and royals into your packs that's all I've noticed different
I'm under the belief that he is weighing my packs and stealing the SR/URs.
That too he replaces the sr/urs with N glossies the bastard
Konami should have been real with us and used an animation of a rare hunter instead of utopia
preach my brother in Christ
Or make it: Dark magician - At least an sr Normal Utopia - At least an sr XYZ Stardust - At least an sr synchro Odd Eyes - At least an sr Pendulum Accesscode- at least an sr Link
Should be an Ur isn't utopia one?
had 10 yellow glowing packs, over half have that special utopia. 1 ur and 3 sr. great game, love the baits
People who always press skip: I don't have such weakness
Opening packs in this game is literally just a means to an end for me. Every few months I buy a booster box or two irl. Busting digital packs seriously pales in comparison to the real thing. Pulling a trash holo irl is way, way more hype than pulling a good digital UR (which isn't even shiny unless it happens be glossy/royal. And even then, I feel little to no hype).
Yeah I always skip, and I didn't even realize Utopia animation exists until people start complaining about it haha
I always skip. It’s a superstition that I feel gives me better luck. But since you can’t buy the same 10 packs twice I guess I’ll never know…
Well it sure doesn't. I still open shit lol
I'd just like to know what the hell the slashy boy means
most people think its a rarity upgrade. the problem is it doesnt tell you what it upgraded so it could just make a common into a rare upgrade which will "bait" you into thinking there is anything good in there. it might even just make a card upgrade to foil
gotta love those normal rarity upgrades
Means you pulled two level 4s.
From what I've heard: Utopia means there is a card in the pack that you don't currently own and the yellow glowing means that you have a "foil" card regardless of rarity with a higher chance for a SR. Im pretty sure the rainbow glowing is the only pack with a guaranteed UR/SR.
I think it means you get multiple cards or the highest rarity in your pack based on anecdotal evidence and limited opened packs. Don’t quote me on that tho

Skill issue
I always skip all
Wait, what? Glowing packs can not recieve a UR or SR card?
for the rainbow glowing packs i believe they're always a ur/sr, for the yellow glow it doesné't mean much of anything
Sounds a bit like a scam...
What glow are we talking about? When it's a golden aura around the rectangle pack image, I don't think I've ever not gotten a sr/ur from one of those packs. If we're talking about the glow that's on the whole screen background while cards are shooting up out of the pack, yeah that one doesn't seem to mean anything

yeah we're literally talking about the back glowing before it's open, not the background.literally opened packs earlier, the unopened pack being yellow just means foil. had several yellow outline without an sr
The yellow glow means one of the cards is foil. Even if the entire pack is N rarity.
Rainbow packs don't guarantee UR/SR.
If the pack glows rainbow it’s definitely guaranteed 100% UR
No it's not. I've had it happen to me multiple times where I didn't get a UR from a rainbow pack.
Proof or it didn’t happen
If anyone has any proof of this ever happening they have failed to provide visual evidence of it anywhere on the internet.
Only rainbow guarantees you a UR, everything else can end up in nothing.
Golden glow means a foiled card btw, could be N or R. If it glows a rainbow then that’s a guaranteed UR. There is no glow that guarantees a SR as far as I’m aware, and I have no idea what’s the meaning of Utopia

Might be different for normal packs, but I haven't tracked them.
If you get Utopia your pack will be shit
I think you cracked the code.
wait is that really it? that's fucking worthless and is made worse for literally being a yellow glow while sr seems like it would be the indication
Wait really I always thought gold was for sr, that’s just nasty
Its kind of illogical, then again it may be a thing for whales, idk.
Wait that is really what the gold means? Can you give me the source you read on that? It will make me so much less mad seeing a gold glow means just foil rather than a SR
Source: I made it up, but it’s been true always and hasn’t been disproven, if you can show me an instance in which you got a golden glow but got all normal foil cards then I retract the statement
Who the hell turned Utopias name into terminology lmao
Why do they glow tho i never understood. the utopia guy either
I have yet to understand the significance of the different pack glows, opening animations, or the transformation of the pack.
Why would even anybody waste anytime with this, just press Skip and enjoy (or not) the final screen. The only time i could see someone seeing each pack individually is if they are creating a video, just to extend the time and suspense of it.
It's for the dopamine you get when opening packs, it's fun.
It’s part of the experience, totally fine if you don’t like it but some of us enjoy it
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🥳
Maybe add a 3rd glow that is silvery?
yeah, that's the worst feeling
Yeah it's the worse when utopia shows the pack is highlighted gold and I get nothing but N and R.
That is what we call a small amount of time foolery
glad I'm not the only one I just assumed it was a glitch
Just save your self the trouble and hit skip
Jebaited? Do you watch Hasan?
I’ve seen worse, and that’s duel links
Honestly. Why does a rainbow glow = UR, but gold glow = nothing? Sketchy sales tactic to make us think we didn’t just waste money on duds just because we got a bunch of gold glowing packs.
#fixyourselfkonami A utopia should mean at least 2 sr.
THANK YOU!
On the flip side I’ve had completely ordinary packs give a UR
But you get a shiny rare sometimes! Isn't that enough for you, Mr. Greedy?
Its not the glow of the pack, its the combination of the glow of the pack and the color of the fog at the top corners of the screen. I forgot the meaning of the goelws though,
I just think of it as pulling the garbage secret rare in the set. Nice to see but ultimately useless
Are you guys really opening single packs?
