    Why are the odds so bad? How is 2% considered “good enough” with the high diamonds being far worse than that. Almost everyone admits that packs are largely hot garbage and not worth buying.

    Free or not, the pull rates are so ridiculously low that they just feel tedious to open and develop carpal tunnel to sell all the commons and bronzes for scraps. I don’t see how slightly higher odds would negatively affect the SDS bottom line.

    I’m not saying they need to be bumped up to 12.5% like they were late last season but sure seems there is a happy middle ground that would make us feel like we had an actual shot at a great card.

    I don’t want to hear the pop control argument because we all know the majority of DD players are offline and those that do play online don’t care if their opponent has Beltran or not. Just feels unnecessarily rigged for disappointment and that’s discouraging.

    You do have a shot at a high pull … If it would be 4% you would probably feel the same. Those high cards are very rare, therefore they cannot be pulled as much.
    You have to go after the packs to max out your oppurtunities. Imo the TA gives you so many opportunities to gain packs, you just have to play out the rosters.
    I have opened a couple of hundred packs with that … Yes, I had lots of stretches with no diamonds (or Cole :)) … But I also pulled Trout and Judge. Yes, that is also luck, but I also had a lot of opportunities

    I only buy packs on pre-launch to pad the LS collection; after that it’s all free ones. If you’re impatient and unlucky, flipping or credit card 🤷‍♂️

    Honest question: Why do most people post a 'wall of text'?

    Ever hear of spacing out your thoughts?

    No offense, just makes things easier to read.
