Like @dont_argue04 I too have blown probably $100 chasing cards this season. It’s silly, I shouldn’t do it, but having hit pay dirt many times in the past churning bronze packs in 23 (which had more generous odds across the board) I had to go and teach myself the hard way. Zero return apart from Ice Cold Gawn.
In the remote case someone reads this who doesn’t know, 26 is a different kettle of fish to 23. There is a 15% chance of pulling a gold card from a gold pack (sic). You’re really only guaranteed to pull cards from the next tier down and if you’re chasing a card from the next tier up forget about it. Focus on the auction house instead.
