Mystery pack roll over - RESULTS

Daddy said:

70 midfield packs, willing to bet you dont pull a single card over 50k whether you open them today or in a month.

I opened 15 and pulled 91 redux and 83 plat

Why would you open them now??  I thought the entire reason to do this was to wait until the OVR goes up tomorrow?

I wanted less midfields and more redzones because I didn’t want to open 70 mid fields

Got it.  I have never tried the Mystery Pack thing, so wanted to make sure that I understood what the goal was.

I set aside about 100k coin to play this game, excited to gamba

So 1) I love this idea, but 2) would love it more the longer you wait to open the packs.  What you’re seemingly banking on is an upleveling of pack results due to the season flip. The question is: “does season progression inflation offset the OVR boost?”  Lemme explain. Let’s say you bought most of the cards that were cashed in for training on, say, December 15 - right in the heart of Zero Chill. At this stage, 93s were the highest non-LTDs in circulation and, just to throw it out, a good “high end pack pull“ might be a 90. And at that time, you might be able to sell that 90 for 110k. 
 

Now, with the season flip, 110k gets you a 91 if you’re lucky (might require a 92), given the Playoff cards will be 94s at max. Doesn’t this suggest that, unless you bought all the training IMMEDIATELY before the season flip, price inflation washes the upside away?  I hope I’m wrong for your sake!!!

You are a MUT Savant!

Bump for results

Prices being very cheap, mystery pack only being 1,800 training, and most likely a overall bump in Thursday with the campus heros, just adds up to be a solid way to make some coins AND have some fun with it too :)

so this is the one year where I have too many coins to deal with(watch me post something in a few days where I lost half my coins lmao)

I wasn’t too picky on the prices, I tried to get 89’s for like 29k, then I saw swift post a video on it and those became really hard to get, so I just said whatever and got 91’s for about 80k per 

Anyways so I decided to re roll until I had 100 packs of non promo packs excluding legends(mid field, red zone, legends, and pro ace fantasy packs) and keep them until the next overall bump which is probably this Thursday with campus hero’s 

conveniently, I ended up spending about 1 mil on the packs, quick math that’s 10k per pack 

and my packs I ended up with were

70 mid field packs(gonna take a while)

25 red zone packs

3 legend packs

2 pro ace’s

And I keep all my gold players where i can put into the base item set, and some playbooks go for 7-8k which helps raises the packs floor on it

I will update this most likely on Thursday for the results

anyone else trying this potiental coin making pack?

Update: finished all the packs and my results 

Midfield packs were 💩, got 1 maybe 2  88’s but i got I think 2 82 plats as my best 

redzone packs were alright, got a bunch of 88’s for some reason and got a couple low platinums and 90 OOP tyreek 

pro ace were okay as well, mostly 87-88 in the second round, did pull a 91 which wasn’t bad 

i quicksold all the 80-87 and rolled the campus hero roll which again wasn’t that bad 

did all the calculations and i felt like i did REALLY bad. Ended up being very suprising and if everything sells i will profit about 200-300k

not bad

Selling all those card seems like torture (Not for me). Im glad you had fun opening all those pack.

So I take it EA has changed the way they treat packs? Used to be whenever you received the pack the contents were locked in and it didn’t matter when they were opened. You could get it in Oct and open it in Dec - you were getting what was available in Oct. is that no longer the case?

Usually it comes down to whether the pack auto-opens on purchase or not. For instance, when you earn a pack, you don't have to open it. With time, the odds may go up according to what's assigned to the pack. When you buy a pack, it opens immediately, and you're locked in to whatever the odds were at that time.

Of course, if a Mystery Pack becomes a Season of Boom Pack, you'll never do better than an 86 OVR item, so you don't wait to open those at this point, because the contents won't be worth more later.
