I have seen a lot of discussions around the hobby vs jumbo debate but was wondering what route you would take taking into account the super jumbo

5 hobby boxes
2 jumbo boxes
or
1 super jumbo box

All 3 options add up to around the same range of cost

Thanks in advance

They have different values depending on what you want.

Hobby boxes have black ref and black ref autos. The autos fall almost every other case for me. You would have 5 autos with maybe 1 color auto in 5 boxes.

Jumbo boxes would have 6 autos with maybe 1 color auto in 2 boxes.

Super Jumbos are drying up so they might price themselves out eventually. Supers have exclusive green paper, shimmer ref, and shimmer ref autos. I usually hit a shimmer auto in every other case. You will have 5 autos with a chance at two color (or none).

The black ref and shimmer ref do not have any kind of premium - for instance a shimmer will not outsell an orange even though it is rarer.

Personally, I would open Jumbo, but they just took a large leap in price this week.

I have had terrible luck pulling color out of jumbos. That sucks because those seem to be the better value, pulling more autos for less price than 3 regular boxes.
