I'm level 145 and I get about 1 pack every 1-4 weeks.

I used to get about 1 per week like clockwork, every week - then there were those holiday sales events..

What is your drop rate roughly and your Steam level?

Level 30, and I think I've seen 1 every couple years, since booster packs started. The games you have & play/library size seems like a bigger factor.

Oh man, that's a bummer dude!

Yeah and the drop rate seemed to go down a couple of years ago. It was a lot better before.

Steam Level 242
I get a booster pack about once every three or four days, around nine or ten a month on average.

The drop rate is more than just your Steam level, it also depends on the number of eligible games you have. So, the more eligible games you have and higher Steam level the better chance of getting a drop.

I've also noticed that even while I get drops regularly I don't get many booster packs I've already had drop, it does happen but it has usually been years a part.

Wow! Nice!

Sure, to be fair, I still got card drops to become eligible for quite a few really..

I've just had a check and I have 4073 eligible games that could drop booster packs. I've probably had about a quarter of those.

Hah, whereas my entire library - eligible or not - is 149 games. :D

Seriously though - word to the wise - it's often like; no Trading Cards + no Achievements = no sale.

It's what you do with those 149 games that matters, not how many there is.

Ouch man!

See you gotta kinda have some levels there too eh..

Me, I'm not that bothered really - just curious of drop rates out there.

I mean they did drop down eh, a couple years ago..
