Mode family: Shared
Shared is PackDraw's co-operative battle mode. Nobody plays against anybody: all prizes from every player are pooled and split equally. Shared cannot be combined with other formats, and the only option that can be added to it is Fast Mode.
Pool every prize. Split the pool equally.
No winner and no loser inside the battle. $120 pooled, $40 each.
As in every battle, each seat opens the same list.
It does not matter whose pack an item came out of.
Each player ends with the same share. There is no ranking and no spinner.
| Player | Pack 1 | Pack 2 | Pack 3 | Total pulled | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Player A | $50 | $4 | $6 | $60 | Gets $40 |
| Player B | $8 | $12 | $20 | $40 | Gets $40 |
| Player C | $3 | $9 | $8 | $20 | Gets $40 |
The same invented pulls, settled two ways.
| Made-up example | Normal | Shared |
|---|---|---|
| Player A (pulled $60) | Takes $120 | Gets $40 |
| Player B (pulled $40) | Takes nothing | Gets $40 |
| Player C (pulled $20) | Takes nothing | Gets $40 |
| What your result depends on | Whether you finish top | The average of all pulls |
Shared takes away both ends. You cannot scoop the whole pool, and you cannot be left with nothing while someone else pulls well. What is left is the middle: an equal slice of whatever the packs produced.
It does not make packs pay more. The pool is exactly what the packs gave out. If that comes to less than the players paid between them, each equal share is worth less than a seat cost. In a typical pack the most likely pull is worth less than the pack price, so do not count on the pool covering what the table paid.
It does not remove chance. Every pull that builds the pool is random. Shared spreads the result across the table. It does not improve it.
You cannot. PackDraw's Shared article is explicit that the mode does not combine with other formats, so there is no Shared Jackpot and no Upside Down Shared. Upside Down, Last Chance and Jackpot all exist to pick a winner, and Shared has none.
Fast Mode is the single exception named. PackDraw does not describe what Fast Mode changes. Also undocumented: how the equal split is handled when the pool is made of individual items, and what happens to a bot's share if a bot holds a seat. PackDraw's published description doesn't cover this; check the battle lobby.
Shared is the co-operative battle mode. Instead of one winner taking everything, all prizes from all players are pooled and split equally between them.
There is no losing player inside a Shared battle, because everyone receives the same share. You can still end up with less than you paid. If the pooled prizes are worth less than the packs cost, every player is down by the same amount.
No. PackDraw states that Shared cannot be combined with other formats. The only option that can be added to a Shared battle is Fast Mode.
It is steadier, not safer. Your result is the average of everyone's pulls, so it swings less than a winner-takes-all mode. The packs cost the same and pay out the same as they would in any other battle.
