So I posed the question about this year being worse than last year regarding parallel hits. So here's a comparison.


2014 series 1 blaster.--------2015 series 1 Blaster
10 eight card packs.----------10 ten card packs
1 commemorative patch.------1 commemorative medallion
81 cards.--------------------101 cards
Odds are per pack
Gold 1:17.--------------------Gold 1:11
Camo 1:315.----------------Camo 1:267
Pink 1:623.----------------Pink 1:527
Platinum 1:31,000.--------Platinum 1:26,272


So, what gives? More cards, Better odds, but it just seems like everything is worse.
I just bought another blaster ... No parallels at all?!?!

Yeah, outside of gold and rainbow foil, I've pulled no other parallels via retail; I've bought several blasters, $5 packs, and $10 hanger boxes. Oh, and the only other parallel I pulled in my one and only jumbo box was a Hunter Pence framed. No pink. No black. No clear. No platinum. No Snow.

I'm done buying retail Series 1 though. Set is put together and I don't want a million duplicates; I already have more than enough.
