What are the odds? Disappointing experience with packs.

You are more than likely going to get the lowest reward possible. That’s why top cards are more expensive they are packed less often. 

I understand that the probabilities must be higher for lower players, but in my experience it is frustratingly unbalanced, in a way that I do not even get a good spread across various lower ranked player. If I open 5 packs and get two (out roughly 30!) different players of the lowest ranks only (happened to me with Future Stars and also Fantasy FC and in between there wasn‘t even any special card except TOTW), then that appear to be intentional and not very random, and that is more than just disappointing. In addition, I would expect even more fairness regarding probabilities for packs that cost quite a bit of money. If I pack 2 of the most expensive packs and get the same lowest possible ranked players twice, that is not coincidence. It either a bug or a product that I will refuse to buy in future. If that is not a bug, then I do not understand EA philosophy behind this. It’s really frustrating and at least I will discontinue purchasing packs in that case.

They post the probability on the packs you buy. When people say random they should mean it’s random like you have the same chance to pack any player like anyone else. It’s not really random as the cards have weight and you will likely pack all the bad cards more. You said you understand that though.  It is fair and not a coincidence  

Really all you have to do is look at the market. Everyone is discard besides a few top cards. You are going to pack the players at discard price. 

I do understand probabilities, yes. What are the odds to pack the „special“ players 3 or 4 times in row? Happens like 3 times to me. Even with a 50% probability highly unlikely. Where can I find those probabilities?
