"OP-16 pull rates" is one of the most-searched questions about The Time of Battle, and it has an unsatisfying answer that almost nobody says out loud: Bandai has never published pull rates for the One Piece Card Game. Not for OP-16, not for any set, not in English or Japanese.
What follows is everything that can be sourced — the pack structure Bandai does state, the full rarity composition of the set counted from our own daily snapshot, and what each tier is currently worth. Where a figure is not verifiable, this page says so rather than filling the gap.
What the publisher actually publishes
Before any rate: here is every structural figure for OP-16 The Time of Battle that comes from a source you can check, with its provenance next to it.
| What | Figure | Provenance | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cards per pack | 12 | official | Bandai — OP-16 product page |
| Packs per booster box | 24 | retailer-listed | Beckett — OP-16 set details |
| Boxes per case | 12 | retailer-listed | Beckett — OP-16 set details |
| Manga Rare cards in the set | 3 | official | Bandai — OP-16 product page |
| Printings we track and price | see table below | counted by InkSight | — |
| Published pull rate for any rarity | none | official | — |
Provenance is stated on every row on purpose. "Official" means the publisher printed it; "retailer-listed" means the figure comes from the sealed product listing; "counted by InkSight" means we counted it in the August 25, 2026 snapshot ourselves. Nothing here is a probability, because none of these figures is one.
Are there official pull rates for OP-16 The Time of Battle?
No. Bandai publishes the OP-16 checklist and the number of cards in a pack, but has never published a per-rarity probability for the One Piece Card Game in any region. There is no odds sheet, no ratio on the wrapper, and no statement in the product release.
So this page publishes the structure, the checklist composition and the current prices, and stops there. Where you see a "1 in X" figure for this set elsewhere, it is somebody's opening sample — sometimes a good one, usually undated, rarely with the sample size attached. We will add community data to this page the day a dataset clears our bar: a stated number of packs opened, a stated collection window, and raw per-pack results rather than a summary.
OP-16 The Time of Battle by rarity — the composition, not the odds
This is the part people usually mean when they ask about rates: how much of the set sits at each tier. It is a real, checkable figure — and it is not the same thing as how often you open one.
| Rarity | Printings in the set | Share of the set | Median price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leader | 12 | 7.7% | $38.12 |
| Common | 45 | 29.0% | — |
| Uncommon | 30 | 19.4% | — |
| Rare | 39 | 25.2% | $18.02 |
| Super Rare | 24 | 15.5% | $14.00 |
| Secret Rare | 4 | 2.6% | — |
| Treasure Rare | 1 | 0.6% | — |
Printings counted in the August 25, 2026 snapshot: every separately-priced product in OP-16 The Time of Battle, so an alternate-art printing counts as its own row. Share of the set is a composition figure — how much of the checklist sits at that tier — and it is not a pull rate. A tier that is 4% of the checklist is not pulled 4% of the time; print runs are not proportional to checklist size, and no publisher has told anyone what they are. Medians use confident prices only and are shown from five priced printings up.
What a box costs, and what that buys
On the August 25, 2026 snapshot a sealed OP-16 The Time of Battle booster box sits at $221.08. Divided across 24 packs that is $9.21 a pack, or 288 cards for the box. That is the entire arithmetic anyone can do honestly: price per pack is a division, expected value is not, because expected value needs odds and there are none.
That listing is the one number in this section that is a real, checkable price for a real SKU. What the box contains is a different question, and the cards below are the honest way to think about it: most of what comes out of a box sits in the middle of the ladder, not at the top of it.
Across the whole set we hold confident prices on 44 of 155 tracked printings; the median printing is $22.72 and the sum of every priced printing in the set is $5240.68. That last number is the cost of one of every card at market, not the value of a box — a box contains a small, unknown-to-us slice of that checklist.
The cards people are actually opening for
The money in The Time of Battle sits where it sits in every modern One Piece set: alternate-art Super Rares, the manga-art parallels this set was built around, and the Secret Rares at the top of the checklist.
Is a box worth opening?
Without odds, "worth it" can only be answered on price, not on expectation. A box costs what it costs; what comes out of it is genuinely unknown to us and to anyone quoting a rate from a hundred packs.
The honest framing: buy sealed for the experience of opening it. If you want specific cards, singles are cheaper and certain — and most of a playable deck sits in the $1.00–$15.00 band below.
What would make us publish a rate
We would publish a community pull rate for OP-16 The Time of Battle if a dataset arrived with: the number of packs opened, who opened them, when, whether the packs came from the same case, and the per-pack results rather than a total. Anything short of that is an anecdote with a percentage sign on it, and the reason it matters is that box-break samples are small and case-mapped — a hundred packs from two cases can be wildly unrepresentative of a print run.
Until then, the numbers on this page are the ones we can stand behind: what the publisher printed, what our snapshot counted, and what the market is paying today. The OP-16 price guide tracks the same set card-by-card and updates daily.
Common questions
What are the pull rates for OP-16 The Time of Battle?
There are none published. Bandai does not release per-rarity odds for the One Piece Card Game, so any "1 in X" figure for OP-16 comes from a community box-break sample rather than the publisher. InkSight publishes the set composition and prices instead of an invented rate.
How many cards are in an OP-16 pack?
Twelve cards per pack, with 24 packs in a booster box and 12 boxes in a case. Those are structural figures from the product listing, not odds.
How many Manga Rares are in The Time of Battle?
Three — the first One Piece set to carry three of them. They are manga-art parallels of existing Rare and Super Rare cards, and they sit near the top of the set price-wise.
Is an OP-16 booster box worth buying?
On price, not on expected value: nobody can compute an honest expected value without published odds. If you want specific cards, singles are cheaper and certain; buy sealed for the experience of opening it.
Where can I see current OP-16 card prices?
Our OP-16 price guide tracks every printing in the set from a daily TCGplayer snapshot, with the snapshot date printed on the page.
