Tox priorities
The advised buying order, opening by opening, and the slot for each Tox. Draws stay random and high rarities come late. “Deck core” lines are only replaced by the same Tox in a better rarity.
Shop openings
At each opening: the odds of each rarity given the deck’s Luck on that turn, the Spamtons generated so far, and the advised purchase. One purchase per opening.
