Buying boxes

What is the worst streak you have ever had in buying boxes? So far, this week, I am 0 for 42 on the holiday boxes (including the two free achievement boxes). That’s 21k gold spent and zero legends (other than Eric Davis in fan rewards).

    When they came out with the blue xp Gold Glove Arenado & Perez, I bought at least (lost count) 120 of the AL boxes trying to get Perez. He was supposedly 1 in 40 odds. Ended up getting him later via WOH though.

    My current streak is with the WOH boxes. Since late November I have cycled somewhere around 150 times and have not pulled a "good" legend. Meaning, they've had 3 legends and 10 percent odds on getting one of the three. I think I got Baines the week they had LL Trout/Hank and got Gossage the week after when it was LL Votto/Hank. Also got Kaline (machine version) at some point, but he was the "3rd" legend that week, if I recall correctly, it was LL Lindor and some ATG. So, with the top 2 of the 3 legends being 6.67 percent odds. It should be 1 in 15. I have opened 150 and got exactly zilch.

    I did open a single Holiday box the other day and got Pesky, so there isn't a total conspiracy theory here yet. :P

    Is there an equal chance of pulling any of the three legends?

    I went 1-11 on the 50/50 game changer boxes this week and then pulled degrom and Reggie from the holiday boxes on my first shot. It’s a rollercoaster sometimes.

    0-50 on the Nickname boxes a few months ago.

    I honestly think its Random as hell....from the game changers boxes I pulled Puig x2 and yesterday I got Andjuar and literally this past weekend somehow I got Legendary Whitey Ford, but prior Nothing for 60 Boxes in a row, I Really think they have a counter of some sort.

    Who knows, I cant afford to level up my legend as I have zero LXP so, His Black and White Picture looks cool on my locked inactive pile.
    Nothing in life is as beautiful as the Balsamic thread.

    Not not a crazy high number of boxes, but early in the year I went 0-15 on POTM boxes. Considering it’s a 39% chance of pulling a player I was rattled.

    That’s a great question that I doubt you’ll get a clear answer on from GLU. I cleared WoH 8 times one day and waited to open all the boxes at the end. Still didn’t pull a single Legend.

    I once went 0-50 before i stopped counting if i had to guess i probably opened 20 more boxes after that until i pulled someone who i could barely use but at least it was something... i dont believe in any of the odds.. in my opinion pulls are streaky.. i pulled 3 legends a few weeks back. And decent ones at that. Cool hair damon, penguin and i forgot who else. Before that i had gone over a month without one.

    After this weekend, I’m now 0 for 48... not a single player... not even a crappy one from a box.

    I agree 100% about them being streaky. I opened 100 tournament boxes this weekend to check and see. I got 7 franchise coins in a row at one point (27% odds), but as you can see it does even out somewhat over time
