I'm a miser who's working on saving up my stubs for the big fish and the other players who cost over 100k stubs. With 200,000 stubs, I'm on the fence about cashing in on this stub sale, so I was wondering if someone could partake in an experiment.
Buy the 50 pack bundle and tell me what you pull. Mainly, list what gold and diamond cards you get and what pack you got them from (30th pack for example).
I want to know if this is worth it, or if it's just a rip-off.
Do not do it.

What we get has no bearing on what you get.
I know that. I'm just curious to see if people actually do have success o packs.
Don't buy any packs until you finished your collections is the best advice I can give you.
Excellent advice. Buying packs is a complete loser otherwise. I bought 5 50 pack bundles and came away with 4 low diamonds.

Yep! All of mine barely broke 5k.

Just bought 150 packs(because I wanted to just to be clear). 18 golds, 1 diamond equipment, 1 diamond Jersey, Starling Marte, Verlander. I buy packs because it's fun, not because it's a good idea to open them

I'm guessing it was the Live Series Verlander and not the All-Star card? I shelled out 50k for him because I'm a Tigers fan haha

Only buy packs the first couple of weeks to start the LS collections; once you’re left with silvers and above, go with buy orders, exchanges and what the free packs give you. I only need Trout now, so packs are a no-no, even though I got jittery and bought a 50 bundle last night and made back about 80% of the 37,500 stubs.

That's not a bad return. The thing that gets me is that a lot of the folks who post that they got Trout don't post any proof with it. I need a clip or a screenshot to know if they're truthful but most don't bother.

Yeah, but I dinked and dunked the market and exchanges to squeeze every stub I could get! Posey for 5.4k and golds at QS basically, the rest silvers through exchanges. Not worth it but at 37,5k I went for it, meh… I’ll keep saving until Trout and hope he doesn’t jump back up to 500k in the meantime
-
I pulled Trout last night from a solo pack I got for locking in ball player quirks. It’s all random.
-
Buying packs hasnt been worth it since the first 2 weeks when they were juiced

I pulled Trout 9 times last year, and already twice this year.
However, I could care less if you believe me, so I didn't pre-record and save videos for this moment in time.

This is troll garbage, nobody cares about your mythical 9 trouts

I’ve had bad luck all year, but got two 50 pack bundles and it actually paid off for once.. pulled Acuna and Tatis Jr, and a few low money diamonds in the 6k range.. but it’s all just random luck
-
I bought a 50 pack and got 2 diamonds. Castellanos and a prospect. Think there was 5 or 6 golds in there too.
Edit to add I knew it wouldn’t be worth it before I opened packs. But I figured at half price I’ll open one.

exactly my point, I could care less what you believe
He was pretty common for all of my friends last year, especially after December. Hence the reason his price dropped so much.

Over the past couple days I bought 4 or 5 50 bundles and a 20 bundle. Got maybe 6-8 diamonds. From memory..... mookie, hader, Eddie mathews, and a few quicksell ones. Probabky 20 golds and a bunch of silvers and below. A diamind stadium and a diamond sponsor. I probably broke about even im guessing. If you don't have the chipper collection then its a good time to buy cards, bad time to sell cards. It is a gamble but if there is a time to buy packs it's when they are 50% discounted. You have 200k. Sell the cards like Verlander and whatever you don't need to get chipper. After chipper worry about the legend and flashback cards for Mo amd the other upcoming collections. Thats what I would do. I have both done and tons of extra cards. You should definitely be completing the BR program and the event. Thats another 200k towards chipper. Don't say you can't win enough games. Unless you are really bad you should get it done eventually . Its literally free packs and stubs.

His price seems to be falling now after the new inning program got underway. I hope it continues to do so

Problem is I've never played an online game in the many years I've played MLB the Show. With all the talk of toxicity, freezes, lag, and bad sports in general, I'm afraid of playing online. And I would probably suck anyway.

Thats just the people complaining like they do. I have played approximately 150 RS games, countless events and BR games. The toxicity is minimal. The people that complain about that stuff are concentrating on a tint part of the online experience. I haven't had any issues with freezes either. At some point I think I start to believe ots their burger king wifi internet that causes these freezes. In not talking about the intentional freeze glitches that were patched. In talking about the regular in game freezes with no explanation. But if you want to just play offline thats your choice. Just don't expect there to be as many ways to earn stubbs and packs as there are for competing against humans.
