Ballin is a Habbit
-
Who cares? I’ve pulled two low diamonds, but they are free for doing content you would do already and a guaranteed gold means a minimum of 1000+ Stubs
-
Early on when the game first came out I got like diamonds in 3 or 4 out of the first 10 or so I opened. Haven't pulled a diamond in one since.

I pulled lindor this year from a biah then he went gold the next week.

They are 2nd worst in terms of getting diamonds. Headliners are the worst. 90% of the time you pull 4 silvers and 1 gold. Ballins are just gold packs with the rare possibility of pulling a diamond just like you can pull a diamond from those free silver/gold packs.
I’d say team affinity are worse, but I did get a couple from TA packs the other day, so it’s probably close
-
I’ve only pulled 4 diamonds all year out of any packs. One was Francisco Lindor who’s now a gold. I haven’t pulled any of the upper tier diamonds. I’ve completed all of the easy team collections but at this rate l’ll never get any of the multi diamond teams.

Who cares where the packs come from. They have posted odds. Odds SDS made themselves. And if they don’t come close to those probabilities then it becomes a question about ethics and the other packs they offer in the store. Here’s a shocker, those don’t give diamonds close to their probabilities either most of the time. Good news on this game is you don’t ever have to buy packs. But it’s always good for people to put the lack of integrity in tthe SDS offices imo.

They almost certainly are accurate though. You are not taking into account how probability works. Flip a coin 10 times, you probably won’t get 5 heads and 5 tails. The odds of heads or tails on the next toss is still 50/50. The idea that I’m “due” if I open a bunch and don’t get a diamond is the gamblers fallacy. You still have the same odds on the next pull. If you opened 5 million packs it would stabilize. Each pack is an independent event.
SDS is not going to open itself to legal liability through nefarious coding. There are already countries where “loot boxes” are banned or must have published odds. Serious $ in potential fines would far exceed any benefit (if you are assuming there is one, which I disagree with)

Since you can buy packs with real money, it’s not an « ethics » question, but a legal one.

Meh until any of them are called to present the Actual numbers on their packs it’s an ethical question to me. Who am I when nobody is looking. I’m sure it will happen eventually though and we will get to see it all gone down.
I do really think these guys care less about packs than all the other major sports games as they allow you to buy in game currency and there’s so many ways to earn it and the best cards. But I still have a habit of having to call out bad packs.

Please search binomial probability distribution on YouTube. Then track all your data and find the results. If you still think it's rigged after that come back and show it so maybe others get convinced to do the same and you can get a large enough sample size to really know.
Otherwise, stop ignorantly complaining

My friend and I call them ballin is a gold
Oh how original

Been a little more lucky this year than last, pulled probably 5 or so diamonds but all low diamonds

Man are there diamonds in this thing? I've gotten some diamonds this year in regular packs, but man idk how many Ballin in a Habits i've opened between team affinity 1, 2 and conquests. Any luck for you guys?
I’ve pulled significantly more diamonds from Team Affinity packs than ballin packs.
-
The free BIAH have been way better for me this year than TA packs. Pulled Biggio from a BIAH pack last week and deGrom from one last night. Nothing from TA packs.
-
Pulled Trout (FIRST TIME EVER getting him) last week and I think i got a Yelich. I usually refer to them as Ballin' is a Gold. But I also saw a post about pack luck improving if you purchased stubs in the sale (which i also did for the first time). So i don't think they are great but [censored] i got lucky...also made my first hole in one on the course this weekend too, so maybe it was just my weekend!
