Seriously, what is with the pack prices? They come out for more than the top card even sells for! And what's with the random unannounced drops? Seems lazy and pointless.
I don't see this as any different than what they have been doing for years. Tiered packs always have their base level cards at well beneath the cost of the pack. It's always been a gamble. It is never a sure thing. Are people wanting a guaranteed profit when buying packs?
Right now an hour after release
- Andrew Miller = 74k buy now and 66K sell now. So that pack does not cost more than the top guy
- Blake Treinen = 62K Buy Now and 48K buy now.
So the pack is not worth more than the top cards sell for. Probably by the time they dip that low, if they do, the pack will be no longer available.
And then watch their prices sore when you need to collect Veteran or 2nd Half Cards for a big collection later and these cards are no longer avaiable.
I have complained that SDS has been steering their ship towards monetization island for quite a number of years now but in this case I don't see this as any different than previous years.
Fair enough but 30,000 for a pack you're most likely going to get an 88 worth less than 15,000 is too much of a gamble. The market in this game has been so bizarre for two releases. Either cards aren't worth much or you have a select few going for absurdly high prices. There's no in between anymore. It's not even a month and most golds will barely net you more than quick sell price. Mostly in part to there being no content requiring you to use them.
