Packs are DEAD
-
@paullyg24_MLBTS it will get better, once the All Star game hits and the EA games come out. I agree with you completely. I did get a chase pack today....George Kirby.
What they are doing is maximizing profit. There is no other sports games to go against the show. So make people think about buying stubs. When the football games come out and they start losing players again around the All-Star break you'll see your pack luck increase. Its a way to keep people involved.
Its bogus, but its business.
-
Not really. I pulled Ohtani last weekend. I have all collections done so I never really care what I get. But I am sitting on 1.6 million stubs going into new content releases.
-
@YOSHI24_XBL its not useless, maybe for you but others have these feelings and opinions. I'm not saying i've been happy with pack luck, i havent. however, when i talked to a friend of mine who streams a lot, and buys stubs for content. He put it into the perspective of they need to maximize stub buying now, you'll get lucky here and there but after the All-Star break LS will start to comedown as they'll make more cards accessible. I get it, its annoying to see the same threads over and over, but hey at least this isn't a i lost so the game is broken thread.
-
I haven't seen Ohtani yet, but I did get a second Lindor and second Trout this week which boosted my stub bank. I had terrible pack luck last year, but i really can't complain this year.
-
I bought a few pipeline past packs yesterday in the hopes of just getting wildly lucky. Got 6 88s and 2 90s. Lost my [censored]. I did pull Trout in a base pack last night to complete my Angels LS though. I feel like i've had pretty good luck overall. I just need to pull Tatis, Ohtani, Witt, Soto, Judge and I'm complete. No biggie right?
-
I've had good luck with diamonds...they've just been the same three guys over and over mostly...it's either Trea Turner, Will Smith, or Josh Hader. I WAS lucky enough to get the headliner cards in packs about a week apart (Standout Cliff Lee and Standout Chris Taylor)
-
@LIONED-33_XBL but it is just as useless
… Feelings are no statistics. There is no pack luck and there are no dead packs … Both are not real … and therefore useless, it is just facts. I do not mean this personal, but these threads are equal to: I participated in the lottery and it seams dead (because I did not win ) -
@LIONED-33_XBL no, you won’t get more lucky after the AS break if the odds aren’t changed. Manipulating odds is illegal. They changed the odds after the season last year but they were published (1:8 instead of 1:50).
-
They can tweak the level of diamonds all they want though, as long as they are 1:50.
-
Finished the color storm missions and opened 154 regular packs yesterday, 10 Ballin, and 11 Headliners.
Easter Egg Swanson
Pipeline Past Benintendi
LS HaderHowever in pipeline past packs I earned I pulled Schwarber. So that was a win
-
Looking at the market, it's obvious they are doing things differently with pack odds this year. I don't mean the 1:50 odds for a diamond but it's obvious they decreased the odds of pulling a card over 85 (except the special cards that have ridiculously low quick sale values).
-
It'll be good for some bad for others, that's just the way luck works. I hit Ohtani, 3x Trout, 2x JRam, 2x Lindor so I feel like I'm in the good camp this year. Next year who knows.
-
“Illegal”. lol
-
I have 443 show packs to open and I am debating on waiting until the end of the year to open them.
-
@paullyg24_MLBTS I did about 40 ballins today and 35 headliners with only one 85 diamond. It’s been really bad for me lately as well.
-
@Busta-21_XBL Yes, "illegal". Other countries (not America) actually have consumer protection laws and if they don't disclose the odds, or if those odds are false, and they get caught, they will be fined and that fine will not be small. Europe especially has been pushing HARD against the entire concept of loot boxes in video games.

'Ballin' is a Gold.'
'Flatliners.'
'ACHES' packs.
'Blandards.'
'Searchlight' for Spotlights, as in 'where's my rare round?' Not once have i pulled the top tier in those. Oh, wait. I pulled Cody freaking Clemens the other day!
I've been calling packs 'packs of poo' for years.
It's so bad that every year, by early June i despise the cover of Blandard packs, starting with Tatis in '21, lol. -
Happy Father's Day to me. After a long drought. Opened a bunch of packs today. 5 LS Diamonds
Ohtani
Tatis Jr. (Duplicate)
Bregman (Duplicate)
Alonso (Duplicate)
ColeJust need Judge, Witt Jr., and Marte. I have just enough stubs almost to buy Judge or both Witt and Marte. Not sure which way to go

-
I had like a 5 day span about a week and a half ago where I pulled Ohtani, Ramirez, and Tatis. I can't complain about packs
