An idea I had would make it so there are different kinds of historical packs, from standard historical packs that only guarantee a bronze through to diamond historical packs. There could be a rotation in the shop, where there is always the standard pack, a version of the historical pack, and a non standard live pack.
Also, as a side note, I preferred the eras version, with cards at the end. It felt more personalized by team.

There has got to be some version of pack that gives historical cards that is not ridiculously hard to get in a tournament you'll never win or costs five digits during sales.
The specifics of such packs however are hard to formulate for me, and if you lot were ever in my dynasty thread you'd know that I don't lack for creativity...
I thought of randomly dropping historical packs on a player through various means, none of which sound great, like:
- 10% of all standard packs you buy randomly are a historical pack of some variant instead (akin to the quoted post, either a historical pack as is in the game now, or one that f.e. gives all historical silvers)
- packs from challenge mode might randomly be a historical pack like above (but the game's purpose can't be to sim the 1927 Yankees twice a week)
- flash sales of special packs, say, there's 1k historical silver packs dropped onto the game, for 3k PP each, but you can only buy three per team (this invariably will disadvantage one part of the player population or the other, depending on time zones and a hundred other things)
I got nothing.
