Porg Value Formulas

You asked for it so here it is. The function to calculate some of these is requires a multi-step if/then statement, but the results is fairly straightforward, as long you you know the -Cos(Porg).

Abilities like Ambush or Overwhelm are a flat porg value based on if the card has it. These abilities don’t stack so the unit either has it or it doesn’t.

The numeric abilities, like Raid or Restore are assigned a value based on the number associated with that ability or how many are stacked. For example, shields can stack, even though we have not seen a card with Shields:2

The baseline value based on Cost, Power & Health starts with the fact that a 0-Porg value is Cost*2=Power+Health+1. From there, every stat point is worth +/-0.5 porgs. For example, +1 health or power = +0.5 porgs for each health or power added. Also, -1 health or attack = -0.5 porgs for each health or power removed.

Some examples of this are:

  • 3-cost 3/3 = -0.5 Porgs
  • 5-cost 5/7 = +0.5 Porgs
  • 2-cost 2/3 = 0 Porgs
  • 7-cost 5/7 = -1.5 Porgs

That’s about all there is to it! If you have any questions, feel free to ask a Porg Depot team member in Discord.
