1:6 odds for program packs is absolute trash

You’re welcome!

Seeing the prices on the market for them, its really not that bad, pull rate is good, another thing people want to complain about, the showdown is repeatable (not for program progress) play the showdown and stack as many packs as you can. Golds in volume still earn stubs!
-
Finished the Showdown and got 14 packs.
Two Schmidt’s and a Whitey Ford for me.
Sold one Schmidt. I’ll take it!

It’s a wonder that any of us are still playing based on how aggressively they have given up on content since Madden dropped.
I’m trying to stick with it, but after pulling two worthless low golds from my first program reward it’s hard to get amped to play showdown and conquest for the millionth time this year…
Edit: now 4/4 on worthless golds.
I opened up last year's The Show and bought 1500 packs. I got exactly one trout and one Otani. I'm thinking that buying those packs isn't a great idea.

Legit pulled every 99 diamond and Stargell and madbum twice. The odds just aren’t in your favor, has nothing to do with you crying about the game

Congrats on great pack luck and on being rude. You seem like a cool guy.

I’m sorry, i forgot we are in America in 2023.
“I am deeply saddened that you did not have luck with the program packs. I know it’s devastating but just know we are all here for you if you ever need anything. Perhaps we can start a petition for SDS to provide you with all available 99’s to make up for your misfortune, that will sooth the pain”
Sheesh

Pulled 4 of 5 from my Conquest/Path Packs...Bought Whitey before I knew they weren't guarenteed. Pulled another Stargell from one of my Showdown Packs. Odds seem pretty good.

Madbum is the only card appealing to me. Is he base round? Super cheap.
I got MadBum first program pack. Shocked the heck outta me

15 f-in packs and 15 f-in golds. SDS has completely lost touch on how to design fun. I would rather have choice pack were I get 95s (which I will never use) that 4 progress towards the program then a 1 in 6 chance of getting something good. Even if you give away these packs like water some people are going to get nothing and it makes for a miserable experience for them. It just drives wedge between the lucky and the unlucky. I am irrationally mad at people that actually have drawn a diamond from these bogus packs.
Update: 19 golds and counting….
Update 2: pulled a diamond on the 22 pack. If I did my math correctly there was a 2% chance that the first diamond would be on pack 22. I am bitter and frustrated.
well said mate and what a breath of fresh air that i have hardly played this year based on comments like yours

I finished the conquest map and am at 40 points. I've earned 16 packs. If my count is correct, six from the reward path and ten from the map.
I've pulled 75% (12/16) gold cards and 25% (4/16) diamonds, which is above the 1 out of 6 (16.7%). I pulled two Mike Schmidt cards, so I sold one and bought Ford and Stargell. Then I pulled Ford and sold it - so it was in essence a flip. I bought Glaus with the extra stubs, so I have all 5. If I pull anymore, I will just sell them.
I am pleasantly surprised that my luck held out to pull above the stated odds.

I don’t know how many packs all together from the path, showdown and map but I know it has been a bunch. All but 3 have been golds. 1 Bumgarner and 2 Glaus. So my pulls have been way worse than 1 in 6.

My pennant race packs can be summed up in just two woids….Yainer Diaz! You gotta be kidding me! I pulled 5 of his cards out of 13 packs. It wasn’t a total loss because I did pull MadBum, Glaus, and Schmidt twice.
All that chagrin was still washing over me when I opened my 5 remaining regular packs and pulled a(n) LS Judge!

These odds are back I assume for this program?

Yes, they are back. They improved the odds to 1:5. Completing showdown will grant you 14 packs again (for the first time) and again I got 14 gold cards. Last week I had to flip cards like an idiot to complete the program and this week I will have to do the same, because for some reason I just can't get any diamonds from those "chance" packs.

1:5? I just pulled this screenshot from the reward path, and it still states1:6. Unless you’re speaking about a different pack.

He is talking about the new program

I've opened my final Pennant Chase pack (from the program and conquest map. I did not do the show down), and my odds were pleasantly and surprisingly much better than what was stated.
24 Packs
18 Gold cards (1 84, 3 83, 3 82, 7 81, and 4 80) 18/24 75%
6 Diamonds (Two Mike Schmidts) 6/24 25%Stated odds 1:6 17% (rounded)
