ScratchCheck calculates a ValueScore of 0 to 100 for every active Missouri scratch-off. The rating weighs four factors: Expected Value, Prize Quality, Win Frequency, and Inventory Health. A score of 80 or above is Excellent, 60 to 79 is Good, 40 to 59 is Fair, and below 40 is Poor. The top-rated game in Missouri right now is the 300X with a score of 76. Scores change automatically as prizes are claimed, so a highly-rated game today may drop next week if top prizes run out.

Among $5 tickets in Missouri, the FULL OF $500S currently has the best overall odds at 1 in 4.06 with a ValueScore of 53 out of 100. Five-dollar tickets typically offer better prize structures than $1 or $2 tickets, with higher top prizes and more prize tiers.

Breakeven ranks by the per-ticket probability of winning back at least the ticket price, using published prize odds. Jackpot Chase ranks by expected top-prize dollars per $1 spent, using remaining top prizes and remaining tickets. Best EV ranks by published expected value per dollar. Games with missing inputs sort last. Rankings update live as you move the budget slider.
