50 Pack Loss

Bro...but that excitement of seeing that diamond is worth all the heartache. Then you get ten second of trying to convince yourself that maybe trout is a national league left handed pitcher.
I agree. Don’t spend money on packs. But, if you got stubs to spare, why not roll the dice.
On a side note. Do you guys know why my house doesn’t look like caesars palace in Las Vegas? I can’t figure it out.

I’m glad to see others who can relate to my pain.
I haven’t had bad luck this year. I’ve pulled a John Franco, Judge, and Jack Flaherty. I just had to share my pain of striking out with a 50 pack.
I like @elway7751 idea about buying only single packs. Maybe one pack is enough to satisfy my craving while not throwing away too many stubs.

I’ve completely struck out too before .... but I just bought a 50 pack and pulled Kirby, Alrodis, Alonso, Buehler and Bellinger.... also pulled a diamond stadium .... best I’ve ever done ... the Bellinger card made everything instant profit.

That sounds dangerous. I’d probably be tempted to buy another pack after that haul.

You are correct.... I’m conflicted for sure ... lol

Their packs are a scam. Their own odds show they are nothing more than a scam. Seriously look at the numbers not even taking into account whether or not premium pulls come out at those odds.
So let’s say if you get just a bronze or two your pack will be worth somewhere between 100-500 stubs. For this experiment we will say this packs value at 250 stubs. If you pull a silver your pack value is somewhere between 400-800. We will call it 600 as an average for this. If you pull a gold the pack value is somewhere between 1200 and 3000. We will call it 1800 got this because it’s obviously weighted to the lower overalls.
Therefore by their own stated odds on packs if you were to pull 100 packs:
You can expect to pull roughly 55% of packs with only bronze. That equals 13,750.
You can expect to pull 33% of packs with a silver. That would equal 19,800.
You can expect to pull 10% of packs with a gold. That would equal 18,000.
Now going into diamonds you can see we are at 51,500 in stubs value from a 150k pack opening.
That means IF you happened to actually pull 2 diamonds, there is only a combo of 9 diamonds that would actually give you your stubs pack or make stubs.
Plain and simple that is not gambling that is a scam. In conclusion, I like to open packs when I’m bored but after losing so many stubs in the last week I would never give them another dime and I don’t mind spending money on games here and there. They need to seriously adjust the pack pricing, odds, or put things in packs that bring the value up by quite a bit.
Now I will give them credit where it is due and that is you can absolutely earn a lot in game and you do not have to open packs. This is a silver lining but doesn’t change the fact that at the current rate the things shouldn’t even be on the game.

I blew about 400000 stubs today, ended up with nothing. Did get all my Indians team affinity exchanges done though

Wow and I thought my luck was bad.

Yeah, I pulled 50 pack and got diamond sponsors and fields but no LS.
A week later, I open 15 or so pack I earned over a 3 day span, 4 diamonds. In fact, back to back pulls; Cole and Acuna. Needless to say I was pumped.

Yesterday was my best day yet diamond wise as well. I pulled a classic stadium as one of my daily doubles it's not much but it was good for 4k and then I pulled Marte which was nice because I used the stubs to work towards getting Nolan Gorman. I'm now one exchange away from getting him.

Not a troll, but thanks for being a douche ...

My theory is that all the ones who make such a point to bash the packs and those who use stubs for buying packs don’t want anyone getting packs because it hurts their odds as well as keeps the cards they have for sale on the market from being bought more frequently.

Getting a diamond anything for a log in reward is
I can't explain the feeling from it even if it's just a simple video game still feels awesome...I got diamond cleats from a twitch drop one time during players tournament, sold them for 15k an put me over what I needed for trout...I know it's just a video game but the simple things make me happy -

I'm the same way, it doesn't take much to make me happy so seeing that yesterday was great. Especially because I finally got Baez and Flaherty to complete the NL Central on Saturday and was a tad worried about my stubs lol. Everything tends to work out over time I've found though.

Well,I went back to well for two more packs last night. I’m thankful for my luck as it’s been a grind building my DD team with limited gaming per day. Anyways I pulled a Acuna Diamond and Trevor Story Diamond in the same 20 pack bundle along with some really good cards to improve my roster. It’s noticeably helped my skill to hit. I will say that Chad Green gold 80 is pretty impressive in the bullpen. I hope some of your guy’s luck changes for the better.

I pulled alot last week including trout I don't even know why I spend stubs on packs opened about 40 of 50 today got 1 gold card and a bunch of silvers..
