Re: New MLB 15 The Show Diamond Dynasty Packs Available, Gold Card or Better Guarante

Spring Training Pack: Contains 3 Spring Training Standouts, 1 Guaranteed GOLD or Higher! 3x Higher chance for Diamonds!

Maybe it's just me, but this is worded really awkward. From what I can ascertain, this pack contains JUST three total cards, all of which come from the list of 60 players on the Spring Training Standouts list, right? One of which will be gold or better but will ONLY be one of the 13 gold or better players on the Spring Training Standouts list, right? The 3x higher chance for a diamond card means that instead of a 1/100 chance of pulling a diamond that you now have a 1/33 chance of pulling a diamond, right? Also, there are only 4 diamond players on the Spring Training Standouts list so you can ONLY pull one of those 4 players, right?

12,000 x 33 = 396,000 stubs

You are only pulling a diamond card once every 33 times with these so on average it would take 400k to get one. Right now, you get Trout for 80k, Kershaw for 45k, Tulo for 52k and Scherzer for 23k. That's 200k for all four of those guys. Or, you can spend 400k and (hopefully) get one of them.

These packs sound terrible.
