Card Pack Differences

CFraychineaud · 11-30-2018, 08:26 PM

This is mostly a question for the developers, but if anyone else knows please feel free to answer. Are the card pools available to each of the different card packs the same or different?

I ask this because based on the numbers, we know we that you get the same odds of getting Diamond or Perfect cards from both packs. So getting 5 chances for 1000 vs 5 chances for 5000, makes going for the standard pack much more logical. However this is changed if the card pools for each pack type are different. There are no values listed for the different types of cards (historic, all star, rookie, record breaker, etc.)

Since the end game seems to be about the best perfect cards and maybe some of the diamonds, why would we go for the gold packs if it limits our chances by 5x of getting them?

Thoughts?

How is your display of the packs not all squished together?

(If its the scaling thing that is supposed to fix blurriness and/or the bottom of the screen getting cut off, that didn't work for me with my steam shortcuts)

Same card pools for each pack the only difference is what is guaranteed. A Bronze for the 1,000 pack and a Gold for the 5,000 pack.

If you are strictly hoping to get lucky with Diamond and Perfect pulls then the 1,000 packs are the best shot since you get more chances for the same number of points.
