Re: XFactor choice pack ODDS

The general rule is that the odds are lower the higher the player card is rated.

I've rolled 6 X-factor Choice packs through the different sets and never had McDavid pop-up. 

Same with Icons, no Great, Super or Howe so I bought my guys in the house.

    @Jeff_frm_Edmonds Thank you, that is stating the obvious and not answering the question.
    Packs have odds in % and you can click on them in the store to see these odds. Not XFactor packs.

    I didn’t do 6 XFactor packs, I did around 15-18.

    @Jeff_frm_Edmonds You clearly don’t understand what I’m asking… I’m asking for the % odds to get McDavid in XFactor choice packs. Unless you work at EA, I think it’s unlikely that you have this information.

    I'm sure someone on the team has a list of specific odds but I sort of doubt any of them will publicly release the numbers. That said, I can guarantee the chances of you getting McDavid specifically are low

    Listening to Ep 31 of Coffee & Chel and they discuss X-factors early on. 

    I like the idea of introducing new X-factors during the season but don't think there should be fewer of them at the drop. There should actually be more at the drop and incentivise making a proper prediction on a player to start the season. It shouldn't be either Pettersson or Kreider at the drop but both and let one fizzle out and the other blow up. 

    I expected a lot out of the Island this season and bet on Barzal with his Seattle ties to have a big season. I bet wrong but that doesn't mean Matty & Elias shouldn't be repping their clubs as X-factors or those clubs are not deserving of any. 

    Every club should have at least one X-factor to start and let the season play out and if it goes well they'll upgrade and if not then they won't.

    No skin lost.
