We first convert all card packs to gold, and all cards to their dust value. The final result is a tuple of (gold, dust).

For reward pools, we take all possible rewards, normalize their ranges to the mean average, divide each possible reward by the total amount of possible rewards (assuming even distribution of all rewards and ranges) and multiply that final amount by the number of picks.

In order to convert random "golden or regular" card to its dust value, we also assume an even distribution between golden and regular, and assign it the mean of the dust value of both the golden and regular versions. (Those are noted as grcard)

All values here are approximation because we do not know the exact probabilities of each reward pool
