Lucky Snatch Analysis by EMP

(this guide is brought to you by EMP)
=Lucky Snatch Event=
Lucky Snatch is an event to allow you to get Holy Emblems, a feature that increases the power of individual units. Each unit can equip up to 6 emblems and emblems are differentiated by color, Orange being the most powerful, followed by Purple, Blue and Green.
The event's highlight is to be able to get a rare orange emblem that has 4 fixed premium stats (usually orange emblem comes in 3 stats and are random) when you get 2 Soul Crystals. The soul crystals are rare and you get a luck counter when you didn't manage to get the soul crystals in a pull. A maximum of 101 luck counter will get you a soul crystal although a lower number in luck counter can get you one - if you are lucky.
=Value for Diamonds=
The top question to ask is if it is worthwhile to pull at the snatch event. Below is the analysis based on the items you can get:
Item 	Original Cost	Discounted Costin Emblem Store (30%)
Soul Crystal 	N/A 	N/A
Orange Emblem 	2000 	1400
Purple Emblem 	400 	280
Blue Emblem 	120 	84
Green Emblem 	40 	N/A
300 souls 	60 	N/A
200 souls 	40 	N/A
Casting Crystal 	100 	70
Diamonds (128/77) 	As value 	As value
Ancient Temple Scroll	N/A 	N/A
A brief explanation to how souls is calculated in value – 7000 souls can exchange for an Orange Emblem costing 1400 (30% discount) and thus each 5 souls can be considered as 1 value.
The frequently asked question is "should I exchange for the emblems in store or should I do the snatch event?". Below are some data drawn from drawing in the snatch event. Each table represent 5 pulls and the items dropped. A total of 400 pulls were done and thus can be considered a good sample size.
As you can see, the results are luck based. But drawing more will eventually averaged out the cost. Let's calculate the total values gotten.
Item 	Quantity 	Base Value	Total Value
Soul Crystal 	1 	NA 	NA
Orange Emblem 	7 	1400 	9800
Purple Emblem 	10 	280 	2800
Blue Emblem 	20 	84 	1680
Green Emblem 	7 	20 	140
300 souls 	2 	60 	120
200 souls 	8 	40 	320
Casting Crystal 	18 	70 	1260
Diamonds (77) 	7 	As value 	539
Ancient Temple Scroll	13 	NA 	NA
Hero Shards 	7 	NA 	NA
Net Total 	Net Total	Net Total 	16,659
Let’s not forget that completing 100 draws gives you rewards of 1 orange, 1 purple and 4000 souls, amounting to 2480 worth making the grand total value to be equal to 19,139 value
Total cost of drawing 20 times = 19,960.
Value of items gotten is almost comparable to cost. But bear in mind the cost of the emblems is taken to be 30% discounted from store and you get premium hero shards which cannot be obtained through other methods.
=Power Increment=
Power increment from participating in this event is very high. While most are concerned in getting the best value for emblem in the store which is the orange emblem at 1400 to equip their top units, many forgot that the game is about team strength. 
Participating in this event can help the overall strength in the other units by equipping them with Purple or Blue emblems. You can also use the souls gotten in the event to purchase more emblems in the store instead of waiting it out with the normal endless event taking place every Tuesday and Friday.
=Tempo Gain=
The highest you can get from emblem is +10 orange, which will take a long time to reach. Most may not think of reaching there. Depending on your amount of investment in time/cash in this game, you may want to be more realistic in determining your end point in each feature since there are many features that will increase power. 
Hence in terms of saving time in refreshing the store to get that particular type of emblem, this is a good event to participate as well as for those perfectionists that want to upgrade only 4 stats emblems, using soul crystal to exchange is a sure method to get the desired emblem to max it in time to come.
My overall analysis for this event:
Aspect 	Pros 	Cons
Value for Diamonds 	Yes. For those that want to get multiple emblems inclusive of purple/blue to upgrade other units instead of equipping and unequipping 	No. For those that want to refresh store and buy emblems through cash weekly to equip only certain emblems that they want.
Power Increment 	Yes. Increasing team power almost immediately. Emblems not useful can be dismantled for more souls to upgrade emblems to a higher level. Casting stones are also given so upgrade of power can be instantly. Emblem at the moment increase power to a significant level other than artifacts.	Yes. Increasing team power almost immediately.

Reduce time and effort in maximising feature	Yes. For those that don’t wish to visit the store every now and then or get frustrated in refreshing and getting non desired emblems, this is a good event for ease and convenience. 	Yes.
