The odds

Heliolisk is a Ultra Rare in Ascended Heroes — the pack's hit slot lands on Ultra Rare 10% of the time, split across 47 ultra rare cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 472 packs.

Ultra Rare10%47 cards
PSA 10 (gem mint)69.7%62 of 89
PSA 922.5%20 of 89
PSA graded so far89
Gem Mint 1062
Total graded89

Estimates only. Pack odds come from CardTrack's pack model (the same one behind the pack simulator) — not an official rate. Grading odds are the real cumulative PSA population, which skews toward nicer, resubmitted copies, so it overstates the true first-submission gem rate. Full grade-by-grade breakdown below.

Population across gradersPSA, CGC & BGS — every grade, with gem rates

Only 70% of 89 PSA-graded Heliolisk copies are a gem-mint 10 (62 of 89) — the rest grade lower.

Real graded population from PSA, CGC & BGS — a lower gem rate means a Heliolisk 10 is harder to pull.
