Anything awesome to report on the rip or a recording of the pack opening?

That was an awesome twitch-cast, Jairy! I had to go to bed when you still had about 300 packs to open. Any more surprises? That gave me such a boost to see all the great cards you got (especially perfect Cobb!)

A user clipped the moment we opened Cy! We were 550+ packs in without a perfect, hence the excitement.

As you mention, you were way over the mark for diamonds drawn. This sounded pretty extreme to me, perhaps their indications of diamond frequency is off?
I thought I would use binomial cumulative distribution function to calculate how often it would be this "good" for 1000 packs. It turns out that getting 48 or more diamond cards in 1000 packs (which is how many you got) would happen only 0.96% of the time, so I wonder if their indication of odds of drawing a diamond is off?

I have been lucky enough to pull 3 Perfect cards this week alone on Packs. Unfortunately i wasted the odds on all live cards. Yelich, Cole and Tatis.
Imagine if it's Cobb, Young and Walter instead.

Anybody know the results? I have a theory packs really are positive expectation it's just that variance is so high, you have to have a large bankroll to make it work.

It wasn't a great night when I did it. Yogi was the best card I had - if I had to guess I probably lost 100-200k.

Great!
By the way, the upcoming patch (which will also include Tournaments) will have a new pack opeining animation as an option, it's called "Instant" and be an awesome way to quickly opening tons of packs while also getting some nice graphical feedback (unlike the ugly dialog you get when disabling 3D). Loading times between packs have been reduced, too. |

Markus just casually drops tournaments in that last post, like it's no big thing...
