So, there’s a new bundle for 5,000 Gold with a Series 5 card variant! Let’s break it down to see if there’s any upgrade or if it’s just a typical uninteresting bundle.
118% Progress Value isn’t exactly the best return when you’re talking about two seasons’ worth of saving Gold, but it’s still not bad. A Total Tokens per Gold rate of 0.93 is also a pretty nice, though, as usual, this bundle falls short of Booster Packs.
Meanwhile, there’s an interesting trend. Blizzard Beats costed the same, offered a variant for a better card and included 500 fewer Credits. Ethereal Architect, Sir Hydration Robert and Cold Embrace each had a better card but added 500 Credits. So in this bundle are we seeing the sweet spot? A potentially good card in exchange for 500 fewer Credits? Not the worst deal for anyone who doesn’t have Malekith.
Comparison With Other Bundles
As for the overall bundles comparison – the Progress Value is pretty decent. This bundle isn’t exactly top-tier but it’s above the average over the past year and the past six months.
In its price range the bundle shows values close to the average – over 12 months it’s a bit above, over 6 months a bit below. Not too bad considering competing bundles for 5,000 Gold were released in a more favorable economy era and had pretty high numbers in a row.
The most important metric in bundles, which is Total Tokens per Gold, shows a solid result significantly above the 12-month average and just a hair below the 6-month average.
Overall the takeaway is that the bundle is slightly above average, which is pretty good when almost every bundle is just bad compared to Booster Packs for players who already have the card from the bundle.
And finally, a few words about Credits… yeah, it isn’t worth taking if you need Credits and new Splits – their ratio to Gold is just awful.
What if you don’t have Malekith?
The bundle in question doesn’t break with tradition and of course shows off-the-charts results if you don’t have Malekith. So yes, if you’re interested in him – this bundle is a must-have for you if you’ve got enough Gold.
Use cases for the Malekith variant
As for ways to use Malekith in your decks, there are two main directions: Affliction (toxic) and Sera Control. Both decks perform well in ladder and conquest, so it makes sense to get Molekith, especially if you like that control-oriented play style.

Conclusion
In the end, the bundle leaves a pretty pleasant impression.
It’s on par with other bundles or even a bit above average if you already have Malekith, and becomes a must-have if you don’t have him and want to pick him up.
The downside, of course, is the hefty price of 5,000 Gold. You’d get more profit by putting that into Booster Packs or another bundle with a card you don’t have.
So, since we’re evaluating value for a broad range of players and not considering missing cards, I’d give it 3 stars out of 5. It’s a decent bundle, but not enough to stand out or be recommended to everyone.
