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.

6 Diamonds (Two Mike Schmidts) 6/24 25%Stated odds 1:6 17% (rounded)
