Method

The primary public spreadsheet records 60 displays / 720 packs and exact totals of 476 Tier 1 Prestige, 236 Tier 2 Prestige, 7 serialized Tier 3 Prestige, 73 Hyperspace Foil Legendaries, 160 Hyperspace Legendaries, and 154 Foil Legendaries. Showcases and Tier 3 serialized Prestige are removed and the retained Prestige tiers are renormalized. A separate two-display / 24-pack full-rarity report supplies the conditional Common, Uncommon, Special, and Rare mix. Publisher guarantees control the fixed slot structure. Display EV is 12 times pack expectation; display and case correlations are not simulated.

Limitations

• This model applies only to the English Jump to Lightspeed Carbonite Edition. It is not reused for later Carbonite products because their composition or product-specific empirical rates differ.
• The sample's observation interval was not disclosed.
• The exact printing detail was not disclosed.
• The 60-display spreadsheet's 60 raw rows sum to 160 Hyperspace Legendaries (2.6667 per display); its displayed 2.28 summary is an arithmetic error and is not used.
• Showcase leaders and serialized Tier 3 Prestige cards do not exist in this model. Their branches are redrawn within the retained Hyperspace-leader or Tier 1 / Tier 2 Prestige pool, so no zero-EV occupied chase outcome remains.
• The two-display full-rarity sample is small and self-reported. It supplies the conditional non-Legendary mix: Foil 83 C / 48 U / 6 S / 26 R / 5 L, Hyperspace 66 C / 32 U / 3 S / 14 R / 5 L, and Hyperspace Foil 24 C / 15 U / 1 S / 5 R / 3 L.
• The Foil model honors the publisher's two fixed Uncommons, one guaranteed Rare/Legendary, and one additional Rare/Legendary at 1-in-4. It uses the observed 6 Specials in 24 packs as a 1-in-4 Common-to-Special branch and applies the 60-display Legendary share equally to the guaranteed and bonus Rare/Legendary branches.
• The Hyperspace model uses two fixed Common slots, two Uncommon-or-better slots, and one 75% Common / 25% Uncommon-or-better flexible slot, matching 66 Commons in the 24-pack full-rarity sample. The Hyperspace Foil model uses one Common and one Uncommon-or-better slot, matching 24 Commons in that sample.
• The manufacturer does not publish per-card print-sheet weights. Supported cards receive equal positive weight within the same rarity, treatment, finish, and slot pool.
• Display EV is a 12-times pack expectation. The model does not claim pack independence, within-display guarantees, case mapping, or printing-wave stability.
• Modeling policy approved 2026-07-24: every supported ordinary card in the same slot, rarity, treatment, and finish pool receives one equal positive selection weight. This is a transparent modeling assumption where the publisher or empirical sample gives pool odds but not card-level sheet weights.
• Carbonite no-chase policy approved 2026-07-24: supported Foil, Hyperspace, Hyperspace Foil, and Prestige Tier 1 / Tier 2 cards remain in the model. Showcase leaders, serialized Tier 3 Prestige, unsupported cards, and unpriced treatment rows are excluded and redrawn within the applicable retained pool, so no excluded chase result occupies a modeled outcome.
• Simulation ordering is draw the complete disclosed no-chase product first, record that draw, and only then apply Sift or another user filter. Sift never changes or backfills the completed modeled draw.
• Modeling policy approved 2026-07-31: every supported ordinary card in the same slot, rarity, treatment, and finish pool receives one equal positive selection weight. This is a transparent modeling assumption where the publisher or empirical sample gives pool odds but not card-level sheet weights.
• Carbonite no-chase policy approved 2026-07-31: supported Foil, Hyperspace, Hyperspace Foil, and Prestige Tier 1 / Tier 2 cards remain in the model. Showcase leaders, serialized Tier 3 Prestige, unsupported cards, and unpriced treatment rows are excluded and redrawn within the applicable retained pool, so no excluded chase result occupies a modeled outcome.
