    It's a gamble just like any other pack that has multiple rarities. Odds are you pull the base tier and lose money but there is always that chance that you could get lucky.

    Buy the players … as soon as released. That’s the cheapest they will be for the next month until they start dropping these packs in conquest.

    Base round checking in. This would actually be a good poll. A community could actually see the odds and probability.

    First pack base. Took J-Ram.
    I'll wait until later today -Tuesday- to buy the second.

    I bought two and got one low and one mid player choices with current sale values of around $10-11,000. So, at least in my case, lost about $40,000 in stubs on the deal. Not super happy about it. But that's the roll of the dice factor.

    So the counter view is, yes worth it. Last 2 years they let us buy 5 of these. And the rare would was still well north of $200K last year. Now we can only buy 2 (so less supply) and the rare round cards are much better.

    But looking just at the last Takashi pack, there was little downside risk to buying the packs as the Rare round ultimately rose to nearly the value of the pack. Now, who knows what SDS does with making these packs more available but based on last year at least there seems to be little risk.

    When Mid Round doesn't even break even and Rare is over $200k (At last as I saw). No, not worth it. Got Mid Rare both rounds when I bought them this morning. Was pretty stoked as i thought I might at least be able to sell and get some of the All-Stars of the Franchise cards...pretty let down when I saw they where selling now for $28k each.

    That’s why they had a stub sale to keep the price down. You’ll see it go up after the sale is gone.

    Packs are never "worth it". It's always a gamble that you will most likely lose.

    I bought two. Got the low round on the first one and then miraculously got the rare round on the second one.

    I bought Pujols at 20K instead of getting packs. The other players have comparable nice cards already. I will wait until they are mixed in over the next month or so to conquest and other programs

    I think I'm gonna buy the cards and lock in the cards from the set since they are gonna go down a little in value. Then might buy an extra one or two for when the packs are gone,

    Packs are never worth it, but if you are going to buy packs, then HRD, ASG, and live series diamond packs during flash sales are the only 3 packs ever worth the risk/reward. You definitely still have a better chance at a profit on these than headliners or a 50 bundle

    I was prepped to buy 5 cause I don’t mind on guaranteed diamond packs. With that said I got 2 mid rounds so I got both Alonso and Albert. I bought the lower tier for 10 k each. And the upper tier will drop once the market gets going with the AS Jrod and Soto, they’ll drop in price quick. Heck I just got that 99 Nolan ryan for 148k. It was 300k+ 2 days ago lol

    You have a 90% chance on each pack of losing stubs. Don’t buy packs, buy cards.

    It’s a gamble…Worth it if you pull top or middle tiers, Not worth it if you pull bottom…That being said I pulled two lower tier & so will you most likely. 😂
