Vibranium Powered Offers Value Analysis

The Vibranium Powered Offers event can be broken down into separate parts, thus making 6 bundles. Each such bundle includes not only the contents of the corresponding stage of the reward track but also the following reward. This is so because you have no other way to get, for example, 100 Credits that come after the first reward with 500 Credits and 1 Mystery Variant, except by purchasing the node for 2.99 USD.

In addition, since you can’t buy the last bundle in the series without buying the very first one, there’s no point in analyzing them separately. There is a cumulative effect here, so the bundles are grouped by stages, sequentially, to answer the question “when is it worth stopping?” and “which purchases will provide the most value?”

Vibranium Offer Tier 1

The very first offer is quite difficult to evaluate, since we haven’t had any bundles priced at $2.99 before. There was a bundle for $1.99 with incredible Progress Value, but that was a one-time story and it would be unfair to compare them. There’s also a previous bundle from the Vibranium Offer series for $3.99. And it’s slightly less valuable than the Vibranium Offer Tier 1, but it compensates by including specific cosmetics instead of random ones, and it provides a bit more since it includes an avatar.

Comparative Chart

If we look for more worthy competitors, we will see that only a few bundles priced at 5 USD surpass this one. The rest 5 USD bundles are inferior.

And yet, if we consider the bundle on its own merits, without comparing it to others, its indicators are very high given its high price accessibility. Therefore, for such a price, we rate it very highly, especially since Credits are a universally useful currency at any stage of the game.

Vibranium Offer Tier 1 – Tier 2

As can be seen from the chart below, nearly all bundles in the $10-15 USD category can clearly be classified as either poor or good. This one is good. However, within this category, it falls short of almost all the bundles and tends toward the average value rather than standing out. And due to a strong emphasis on Credits, we again see that this configuration has a very high Credit value per USD, making it a decent option for acquiring Spotlight Caches with dollars.

Comparative Charts

Also, we see a significant decrease in Progress Value and overall value: by 27% and 190% respectively, compared to the previous configuration.

Vibranium Offer Tier 1 – Tier 3

With this configuration, SD is taking a very sneaky step – after buying a bundle for $10, you see a similar bundle in front of you, but now for $9, which should prompt you to make another purchase, as you have just agreed to a larger expenditure for the same content.

As for the value, because of such a move, we get a plus of 6 percent to the Progress Value compared to the previous configuration. This gives the bundle enough of a boost to be among the top 30% of the best bundles for that price. And this is quite a respectable result, especially considering that the bundle is not only the best in its price category in terms of Credits/USD ratio but also ranks among the top bundles for USD by this parameter in general.

Comparative Charts

Therefore, if you are in need of Credits and are willing to spend this amount, this is probably the best choice available for 20 USD. But keep in mind that the very first configuration for 2.99 USD still offers the greatest value of Credits for Gold and overall Progress Value among the Vibranium Offers, whereas here you lose a bit of value due to the price increase.

Vibranium Offer Tier 1 – Tier 4

In this configuration, Gold is added to the Credits, which is intended to be spent on Collector’s Tokens, according to the current calculation method. But remember that you can also spend it on cosmetics or other, more valuable bundles for Gold, which will give you even more Progress Value than in the calculations. It all depends on how you decide to spend the Gold.

However, this doesn’t help the configuration much. The Progress Value drops even lower here – to 203 percent. Even if you consider that you will spend the Gold in the most profitable way and get 33% more value from the 1,500 units by investing them in the most valuable and expensive bundle, you still won’t get a significant boost.

Comparative Charts

If you look at the overall picture, it becomes quite clear – the bundle is very close to the average value, and within its price category, it is almost a monopolist, but it still loses to the previous Vibranium Offer bundle with the same price.

So I would rather not recommend advancing to the 4th tier, as there is a noticeable drop in value here, and even prudent planning of Gold expenditures won’t fully compensate for what you lose by opting for such a bundle, instead of a traditional one at a similar price.

Vibranium Offer Tier 1 – Tier 5

With this tier, we see the same pattern as with the appearance of the third tier. You’re offered the same content at the this step with a price of 13 USD instead of 15, which should once again entice you to continue making purchases.

But in reality, it’s hardly worth doing, as the configuration remains roughly at the level of the previous one, still aiming for an average value instead of confident growth. 3,000 Gold can help with careful planning, but at such a price, it’s not what you would expect.

Comparative Charts

A bundle worse than this at such a price is only So…is Spider-Man Grounded? which hasn’t been released yet and will probably be buffed.

So, at a price of 50 USD – it’s more likely a no than a yes. You will undoubtedly see better bundles with more Progress Value and without the randomness of Premium Mystery Variants.

Vibranium Offer Tier 1 – Tier 6

And here we have reached the last bundle in the series and… it’s pretty much the same as the previous one with one big “but”.

And I’m talking about the One Man Battering Ram bundle, which will still be available on each day of the Vibranium Event.

Looking at the One Man Battering Ram bundle, we see what we’re giving up in exchange for a larger amount of cosmetics. The difference in 40% Progress Value is compensated by 6 premium variants. And these 40%, with an adjustment for the difference of 5 USD, can be expressed as about one third of a Series 5 card or approximately 2,000 Collector’s Tokens.

And this is a quite tangible loss if you want to get the most out of your 70-75 USD. And it’s worth noting that in exchange, you receive random, unpredictable cosmetics.

Moreover, we see that despite not being the best option compared to other bundles in a general comparison, when looking only at bundles within a similar price range, it becomes clear that this event and the configuration for 70 USD ended up being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Comparative Charts

Other previous bundles in this price category, prior to One Man Battering Ram, had less Progress Value, and had this event come out back then, this bundle would have been rated significantly higher.

But since there is a good alternative available for roughly the same price, I believe it’s important to consider this configuration in context and not to rate it too highly at this current point in time.

Conclusion

Thus, I highly recommend considering the very first purchase of the event at the first tier.

If you value Credits highly, for instance, if you need cards from the upcoming Spotlight Caches or want to spend them primarily on card splits, then the second and third configuration bundles would also suit you well.

The purchase of tiers 4 and 5 seems quite controversial, but fine overall. However, keep in mind that since we don’t know exactly what Gold bundles await us, you can’t be certain how you will spend the Gold you acquire in the near future.

I also recommend avoiding tier 6, and if you have that amount of money, it would be better to consider the One Man Battering Ram bundle, as it provides significantly more for just a slightly higher price.
