Hop on to see vault packs are 30k and open 4 just to get my highest card as a 93 worth 5k. What a deal. Then you release homestretch packs worth that cost more than the cards on the market? Nice.... at least if you're going to show pack odds on the packs be a little less vague than just 90+ at 1:2 odds when 90s are essentially worthless atp. Could literally go up to the casino rn and get a better odds of return on investment than your flash "sale". Ar least madden clarifies the odds of getting a 95-97 and 99 ovr. DO BETTER SDS
-
Btw, also got the same exact card 3 times out of 4 packs. That's also horrid
-
Did the math. Got back a 26% return on 120,000 stubs. Got 32k back on 120k. For something considered a deal it feels like I got robbed
-
There's a sucker born every day

That is not a Flash Sell pack. That is just a discounted Vault pack. Flash sells start in 3 min. 12:30, 1:30 and 2:30 PDT
-
@chuckclc_MLBTS either way, worse than a casino, unacceptable for a game rated e for everyone.
-
-
@Pergo_PSN it's a game rated e for everyone. If packs are a lottery the game is inherently flawed because it encourages children to gamble and lose worse than an actual casino
-
And the free vault pack had another 2 91 ovr, as I stated, they should 8nclude better odds details
-
The chase packs were just... decent. Actually made a few stubs before the market crashed instantly
-
@Wildthingwilly_MLBTS Packs are not a lottery or gambling. With a lottery and gambling you are not guaranteed to get anything in return. With packs you are guaranteed to get something. They are a terrible use of stubs and I don't think there is any reason to buy packs, but it is not like a lottery or gambling.
-
@Wildthingwilly_MLBTS thats why us vets, buy all the Adleys and Skenes we can for 64k and sell after the sell ends for 100k

@GixxerRyder750_PSN A thousand more fools are being born, every f***** day
-
@Pergo_PSN the arguement of you get "something" is the arguement all of these companies use. If I play blackjack the casino has about a 2% edge if I play perfect basic strategy. Obviously there is variance so in a small sample size you can lose worse, but if you could theoretically play enough hands you should lose about 2% of your money. However mlb the show has odds of typically 1:5 for the expensive cards in packs, and that chance typically doubles your stubs. However 80% of the time you will lose 75% of your stubs, which will give you a worse return of investment on average than a casino even though you get "something" in return
-
@chuckclc_MLBTS at the time I thought it was the flash sale because it released the free seasons awards pack at the same time. I pulled 2 85 gunnar Hendersons and 3 adleys. So 180k off of 125k isn't horrible ig. The vault packs are still horrid though and they should disclose the actual odds
-
@chuckclc_MLBTS I have a decent amount of stubs but I'm just scared they won't go up bc the season is ending and that's a lot of stubs to tie up
-
@Wildthingwilly_MLBTS Its been this way for years. They will at least profit 20-25K min if you git them for 64-66k. Might be too late now, not sure
-
@chuckclc_MLBTS I bought a couple didn't want to tie up like 500k on it though
-
@Wildthingwilly_MLBTS I fell ya. Im trying to flip some cards for the next flash sell lo. Im low on stubs

Like I said, buying packs is never really a wise use of stubs.
