The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth Collector Booster EV Calculator

Estimate the expected value (EV) of The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth Collector Booster Display using live TCGplayer market prices and the backend collector-box model.

The calculator draws modeled box contents first from the backend slot contributions, then applies included-bucket toggles and optional Sift filtering as post-draw scoring filters.

12 packs / box 15 game cards / pack 180 modeled card slots / box Backend Collector Booster model

LTR Collector Booster Displays model Normal foil, map land, Extended Art, Showcase, Borderless, Borderless Poster, and surge treatment pools from LTR rows. Commander, Starter Kit, and unresolved wildcard branches remain occupied zero-EV slots; serialized Ring chase branches, Special Edition Collector Booster Displays, and the display-level Realms and Relics Box Topper are excluded from this baseline. LTR Collector Booster Display keeps the occupied zero-EV slot "Commander / Starter Kit / unresolved wildcard branches" instead of inventing missing odds or price identity. Draw all pack and display slots first, then apply any Sift or filtering logic afterward.
