My thoughts align with yours. I also bought a 50 pack, and with all the preorder rewards, conquest rewards and various packs received for playing, I am also yet to see a single gold player in them (not even dreaming of diamonds).
And same as you, I am not complaining, but that experience, coupled with server troubles caused me to withdraw already planned funds for another 50 pack.

I know I can and should just chalk it up to rotten luck, but I definitely have an unsubstantiated suspicion that this year's packs have been nerfed when compared to the past. Mostly because golds and diamonds cost so much on the market.
I remember last year being able to complete all teams with much less trouble and at much lower prices. This year, that goal seems impossible. Of course, I don't expect to have all possible cards by April 17, but at current prices it seems that even August 17 is out of reach.
