What is the best Epic Option pack to choose?

I've been choosing the boom/bust as it's the highest guaranteed card, but my results have been garbage - even when I "boom" above 79. What pack are you choosing and any luck? I feel like given the importance of TT pieces, having multiple cards might be better as some 70s go for like 10k.

EA killed the importance of TT pieces when they capped it at 20.

I mean, I hear you, but Ive sold 70 ovr linemen for 8-10k all season. That's basically what an 80 ovr is going for. Amirite?

Fair point

I started off doing the boom/bust, but recently switched to the 76+ recruitment pack with MUCH better results. Pulled at least one elite in every pack along with many 78-79s, which all have value. I don't think the packs are remotely close in terms of avg return value.

Just switched to recruitment and won’t go back.  First pack.  80, 82, 85 Graham Glasgow.  Much better than any of the Boom or Busy packs I‘be picked in the past…although I probably won’t aee to much more of these if I don’t get my damn makerights soon.  This is ridiculous.

Thanks, you guys just saved me from a bunch of pain and suffering.  I've continually gotten suckered into the Boom or Bust (79+?) pack, had no idea what the others even offered, as EA's in-game descriptions are woefully inadequate.

I been picking the one where you get to pick your choices...most of the choices are garbage.

By far the best way to go. I used to do the bust one, never got anything. I get atleast 3 80s when I get to choose.

It's all luck of the draw really. My last 2 Boom or Bust packs gave me some 84 Gametime dude and 85 Kupp, but the previous however many were garbage lol

I’ve had ok results with the boom or bust but I’m going to try the others soon since it appears better odds for coin making

You just know those Boom/Bust packs are heavily weighted in the Bust category. I take the recruitment pack every time.

I've been taking the fantasy pack.  Typically with mixed results but you get 5 cards total.  I've occasionally got platinum cards and low elites

I don't know of EA is planning a "team diamonds" or similar program so I'm probably holding onto a bunch of junk I'll never use.  I've got about 375 70-79 players in my binder right now including duplicates of all Patriots players.

Probably the value pack, it gives 5 78s I think.
