A Prize Pack contains 2 cards randomly selected from all cards in the game that are not available for sale in booster packs. This pool currently includes foils from the CotC physical preorder, foils from the DP physical preorder and foils and alt-arts from the Crystals Anthology decks - the complete list can be seen in the post below this one. As more special cards are created, they will likely also be added to this pool.
Pick-a-Card allows you to choose from ANY card that can be found in a pack or starter deck (including Premium Foil Packs and Prize Packs).
THE BEST SCORE SYSTEM EXPLAINED
1. As with the previous Score system, your Match Score for a victory is YourRating*OpponentRating/100, your Match Score for a loss is 0 and any games you draw are treated as though they didn't happen.
2. Unlike the previous Score system (used in seasons before October 2017), each player's current Score is calculated as the sum of their most recent 50 Match Scores that month only (as opposed to all Match Scores that month).
3. Your highest Score each month (representing your best 50-match period) is always stored as your Best Score, so there is no risk of harming it and every reason to continue trying to improve on it. For avoidance of doubt, your Best Score is set back to 0 each month, so it's a clean slate every month.
4. The Best Score Leaderboard shows the players with the top 250 Best Scores, acting as the ultimate measure of player skill and performance each month, and those players will be rewarded accordingly (see above!).
