Lack of Diamonds in Show packs

Exactly. Pergo is one of the SDS white knights that will defend them until the end. To each their own I’m just stating that SDS could be more transparent but that would cost them money as very few people would buy packs if they knew the true odds of getting that big pull.

@TripleH-4481_PSN It's not misleading at all. The odds are 2% as stated and with more low level diamonds in the game those will be pulled more often. It makes perfect sense. And I'm no "white knight" and do not defend SDS until the end. That's just a story you tell yourself to make yourself feel better about being wrong.

While I've had serious dry spells I feel like I'm pulling 2 or 3 a week. Before the weekend I pulled Zach Wheeler and Freddie Freeman. I play a lot and let packs build up for a day or two and then open them. So I'll open about 12 to 20 regular packs, 3 to 6 Ballin, and 2 or 3 Headliners at a time. Sometines get 1 or 2 diamonds, sometimes none for days....is this good luck to some or proof of conspiracy to others? I don't know I guess it depends on the individual. I think I'm having better luck than last but I can go on another long dry spell and I'll probably grab my tinfoil hat from the closet even though I know it's all about luck.

Idk if this is my luck or just a good idea but I let my packs marinate until I get like 40/50 of them, in my head I’m playing the odds and get atleast 1 diamond. And I stack headliners and Ballins until I get more then 5. When I open all the packs, I tend to get a few diamonds. So try that if you think packs are dead, my luck is never good when I pull just 1 pack and hope.

Looking through the inventory of diamonds available to be pulled from the standard show packs (on 4/13/2025), there are 64 between 85 and 89 while there is 4 that is 90 and above.
Final result: 1:849 odds...the probability is .0012... This means the chance of pulling a high diamond is 0.12%
From MathGPT...
Okay, let’s break down the calculation for the odds of getting a “high-grade diamond” in a single event.Initial Odds: The odds of getting a “diamond” (either low-grade or high-grade) are 1:50. This means for every 50 events, you expect to get a “diamond” once. So, the probability of getting any “diamond” is 1:50.
Number of Diamonds: Within the “diamond” category, there are 64 “low-grade diamonds” and 4 “high-grade diamonds”, making a total of 68 diamonds.
Probability of High-Grade Diamond: Since there are 4 high-grade diamonds out of the 68 total diamonds, the probability of getting a high-grade diamond given that you get a diamond is 1:17.Overall Probability of High-Grade Diamond: To find the overall probability of getting a high-grade diamond in a single event, we multiply the probability of getting any diamond by the probability of the diamond being high-grade: 1/50 * 1/17 = 1/850.
Converting to Odds: A probability of means there’s 1 favorable outcome for every 850 total outcomes. Therefore, the odds are 1:(850-1), which is 1:849.Therefore, the odds of getting a “high-grade diamond” in a single event are 1:849.
