Default Your Favorite Group Break Format?

I'm considering joining a few Flawless group breaks.

What's your favorite format and why?

Team?
Serial Number?
Division?
Per hit?
Player?

I like the ones like Optic basketball where they have to open close to 300 packs and in between packs are sighing loudly and giving off the body language like they absolutely hate doing it. That's my favorite.

edit: but on topic - maybe random teams? I don't know. It's all kinda bad.

For flawless. Hit draft. Team draft is silly at current prices. Weak teams are much to high to take a flyer on.

For most products I like team draft the best.

Random prefix serial number and hit draft. I hate buying into big money breaks and getting some garbage team. I want to at least feel like I have a chance when the case is opened.

Guarantee? Hit draft
Reasonable alternative? Pick Your Team
Also acceptable? Draft Your Team

I’ve swore off true randoms for a couple years now. If you’re lucky by nature, more power to you.

PYT

All of them are gambling but PYT is a calculated risk.

Im a player collector so i could care less about 99% of all the other cards. Im searching for the player i want and if i don't hit it i'll sell those other cards to fund the one im after.

Some would say then why don't you choose pick your player then? Well, because those usually end up being the same cost as the entire team. I'll go with the team and maybe hit a big card of another player. Worst case scenario it's still the same team i follow.

I love PYPs. Those are very hard to price so if you do some research, you can find great value in certain players.
