Here’s a good example of how to make bundles for 2000 gold, unlike the recent Web Shredder bundle! The Take a Bow bundle boasts decent value for a low price, but unfortunately, it doesn’t shine with any exceptional features. More details below!
Guide
At a price of 2000 Gold, the bundle offers 2800 Credits, which is already above the standard conversion rate of gold to credits – 1.4 versus 1.25. For context, a free-to-play player will typically earn 2000 Gold over the course of one season. So the bundle is less of a hit to the Gold wallet compared to more expensive alternatives with roughly the same value.
Also, in the January patch next week, Spotlight Caches and Collector’s Reserves will become better which means the value of Credits will slightly increase.
Comparison With Other Bundles
When compared to other bundles from the past six months, the Take a Bow bundle ranks above average and falls short of two giants – Glows to the Chest and The One Who Knocks. It also slightly trails behind 3 good bundles with Tokens – Void Claw Vengeance, Pryde Before the Fall and Artist Spotlight: Brett Bean. However, all the mentioned bundles are priced higher than the one under consideration, which is quite a good result.
The second graph from the bottom is dedicated to comparisons within its price category over the past year. Here, we see a similar picture, where the Take a Bow bundle slightly lacks the value to break into the top ranks.
During the same year, in terms of the amount of Credits per Gold, the bundle has almost no equals – it only falls short of The One Who Knocks bundle.
It offers a substantial amount of credits for its price, which is quite rare in the current economy, where almost all bundles are focused on Tokens or include both mentioned currencies at once, preventing you from obtaining one at a favorable rate.
In terms of the number of new Series 5 cards per 700 Gold for those who have collected almost all the cards, the bundle is average and not providing significant value compared to many other bundles.
The issue lies with the currency itself – Credits are less advantageous than Tokens in terms of how many Series 5 cards you can obtain for the same amount of Gold if you already have most cards. However, after the January patch, the situation might change slightly, and the bundle could be considered slightly above average.
The Usefulness of the Variant in the Meta
Mirage is a Series 3 card that fits well with the current season and pairs nicely with the card Iron Patriot and this week’s card, Victoria Hand.
Below is a popular and strong deck from the current meta featuring Wiccan, as well as a budget build with Devil Dinosaur,where you can use Mirage as a new player who only has Series 2 cards.

And although Mirage currently holds a decent spot in the meta, in the long term, she may slightly lose popularity and return to being a niche card. So, while her current utility is good, her future prospects are a bit uncertain.
Conclusion
Thus, the following advantages of the bundle can be highlighted: it’s cheap, has decent progress value, performs well compared to bundles of the same price, offers good Credit-to-Gold value. Additionally, Credits will become slightly better with the next patch.
The only significant downside is that the bundle has average performance in terms of the number of Series 5 cards per 700 Gold for players with nearly complete collections.
All of this suggests that the bundle is best suited for those who want to split cards or need keys for upcoming weeks. It’s advisable to have a reserve of around 4,000 Gold in case of future bundles.
Thus, I believe it’s fair to give the bundle a rating of 3.5 stars. It’s above average and doesn’t deserve just 3 stars, but it’s not solid or versatile enough to warrant 4 stars or more. It’s simply a nice bundle that can please Credits lovers or be a great way to spend a small amount of gold if you’ve accumulated a large reserve over the past year of lackluster bundles.
Also, don’t forget that you can evaluate this bundle in comparison to others using a variety of different criteria, utilizing the special chart on the dedicated Take a Bow bundle page! Below is a detailed guide on how to use our tools to evaluate bundles on your own.
