Commander Swap Calculator
Work out exactly how many tickets your swap will cost, then see the cheapest way to buy them: with gems, bundles, or a mix of both.
General Info
Getting Tickets
With Gems
1 Ticket costs 100 Gems. You can buy up to 120 Tickets for 12,000 Gems total.
🛍️ With Bundles
Each $5 bundle holds 12 Tickets. Buy it up to 10 times for 120 Tickets for $50 total.
Ticket Cost Calculator
Choose a commander, then enter their 4 skill levels (0 to 5 each). The lower their current investment, the more tickets it costs to swap them in: a fully maxed commander is almost free to swap.

Always confirm with the in-game Preview option before spending: it shows the exact ticket cost for your specific commander.
Best value combo: pair a commander who already has Expertise unlocked (fully maxed, only 2 Tickets to swap) with a second commander sitting at skill level 5, like a 2111 spread (72 Tickets). You get one commander for next to nothing and the other for a mid-tier price, instead of paying full price to bring in two half-built commanders.
Swap Ticket Cost by Skill Level Difference
Skill Level is the sum of a commander's 4 skill levels (0-5 each, 20 max). Difference is measured against a fully maxed commander (20). The bigger the gap, the more tickets the swap costs.
Worked Examples: Swapping in a Maxed (5555) Commander
Both at One Skill Maxed (5111)
Get both commanders to 4★ with their first skill maxed: 100 Golden Heads (50 each) + 72 Tickets (36 each) = 10,800 Gems worth of tickets.
Both at Skills Underway (1111)
Get both commanders to 4★ with all skills leveled once: 240 Tickets (120 each), the absolute max. That's every ticket the Gem Shop offers (12,000 Gems, 120 tickets) plus every bundle ($50, 120 tickets).
Mix: One of Each
One commander at 5111, one at 1111: 50 Golden Heads + 156 Tickets (36 + 120). That maxes out the Gem Shop (12,000 Gems, 120 tickets) plus 3 bundles ($15, 36 tickets) for the rest.
Commanders You Can't Swap
Good to Know
• Only commanders you've permanently recruited are eligible to swap. Trial commanders don't count.
• Use the in-game Preview option before buying tickets. It shows your exact cost so you never overspend.
