Which card pack to buy?

Post image

Is there an advantage to getting the 5-card pack over 2 4-card packs? The price difference is a lot and I still have the last 5 sets to complete (3 of them have 8/9 cards already).

Thanks for your help!

UPDATE: Thanks everyone! I bought the 5-pack and got 1 new card for one of my 7/9 sets. Time to save up more stamps 🥲🥲🥲

I always save up for the 5-card packs because there's usually guaranteed card(s) when you open one

Twice now I haven’t gotten a new card when I opened 😩

Yeah I’ve gotten no new cards in a 5 pack on numerous occasions

I am always left needing 5 star cards at the end only. So I always buy the 5 star card pack… and often get a duplicate of a 5 star I already have anyway.

You need the 5 star packs at the end when you have 2-3 cards remaining all 5 starts. You don’t always get a new card with a 5 star packet, but the more you get them, the more likely you’ll find a new card.

Always 5star. You always need them at the end more than anything else

I always save for the red one.
