I have to think they will release new ways to acquire those cards in the future. If they do, then the prices will plummet like we saw with the pre-order 42 series cards. I would not recommend anybody buy those HRD cards right now unless you have the stubs and just don't want to wait. I personally never really performed well with any of Ohtani's cards whether it be pitching or hitting, so I am not in a huge hurry to get him.

I haven't had my event records show up in standings since launch. Nothing but 0s for me across the bottom of the screen.

nope just nerfed you contact swingers

Was hoping iId line one of his face for all the times he cheats me and the lack of diamonds

I sold off peralta and picked up Alonso and finished otanhi collection and made 60k in stubs by selling and buying a different guy for the final card

I just did it by mistake too; first time. It was 2 am and I didn't remember I already opened a TA NL West pack and I took Escobar twice. I submitted a ticket. Hopefully it gets answered because I just need German to get Acuna now.

So in other words you went too fast. The game tells you which cards are new and which ones you already have copies of when you open a pack, at least when you are opening them on the console, so a couple extra seconds on the selection screen is all that it would take.

Yes and no.

If you hit triangle on the pack; it brings up a list of the cards in the pack. Say you already have the first two.

You then think 'all I have to do is skip the first two and pick one if the other three'.

But when you open the pack, the order is mixed. Yes, you can see which ones you have by whether or not you see 'New' or '1x' in the upper left corner.

But depending on what type of display you're using (monitor or tv) sometimes it's hard to see what it states.

At least for me.

What they SHOULD do is set it up that once you pick a card it's either taken out of the pack or it's 'grayed out'.

Or set it up like @go4stros25_PSN stated in another thread: Have each player designated as a point in the path.

This year is much different than MLB 20. In that game, the cards were larger and I could read the pitchers throwing arm at the game loading screen for instance. This year, it is microscopic on the same TV. They just have overlooked some QOL items in this game (probably because it was rushed) and we're not suffering the consequences.

Roy Oswalt is one I’d recommend. Not many people use him, but I loved his card last year and this year.

I picked the wrong time to start playing Showdowns, lol. Any tips on hitting Mathewson or hitting at Polo Grounds?

draft speed and try to pull the ball

Thanks. I was drafting lefties and power.

@sheyworth_xbl said in ASG Degrom Stamina:

Anyone noticing how ridiculously long he's going? This guy I faced tonight got him to 146 pitches and he was still in the green, pumping 102 without issue. I faced him 5 times tonight, everyone used him for 130+ pitches and none of them had him in the yellow. Is this what we should expect going forward this year? Cards that can go 14 innings if you're impatient or 10 if you're patient like myself?

I'm fine with him being unhittable, he's unhittable in real life, but the fact that the opponent is rewarded for throwing 3-2 counts all game with still being able to use him as effectively in the 9th at 140 pitches is a little ridiculous.

I'm happy to go 3-2 against him today, took my own pitching performances to make it happen, and I understand these juiced cards going 100-110 without losing performance, but the third time I faced him was 146 pitches. Isn't that incredulous considering stamina can go up to 125 (his is 110)?

It's a glitch that probably won't be fixed this year. Pinpoint allows a sp to pitch 140 or more pitches and never go in the yellow. Cabrera can do it too.

Meanwhile every pitcher fields every thing hit at them and the catcher gets to every pop up or weak grounder before the batter is out of the box.

@just1maynard_xbl said in ranked seasons rewards:

seeing that events has rewards up to 100 wins just curious why ranked doesn't have the same thing. im glad that i can get the WS rewards at 40 wins it could be a little higher like 50 but im not good enough to get to WS so after my 40 wins i dont see a point in playing.

You don't really have a point of playing after making world series either.

very true those packs arent worth it. the WS reward is cool but the season is so long there need to be more rewards

That’s why I do all of this in conquest. With 3 inning games you don’t have to pay attention much or quit a game

@dannydevito8997_xbl said in Is a new Tatis expected in future card programs?:

Or judging my previous years are the expected card programs not something he would fit into?

100% chance cover boy gets a 99 this year. Probably a Finest. If he struggles or gets injured a POTM or Awards flashback is likely.

97 Bryce Harper...

Like others have said, taking a couple days away from this game really can be a miracle. Get out there and touch some grass!

I had a situation where was hit by a pitch and then as the player was walking to first base he was thrown out. Nothing ever happened like that in the past 5 years

I think its good for now i generally miss where i can afford to miss and yes i've thrown more meat balls since but i truly feel responsible.

With rs hitting being nerfed, not fun anymore.

i have exclusively right handed hitters plus a couple switch hitters and it doesnt bother me, especially with trout/guerrero having reverse splits so it helps keep it balanced against righties

Use the fastball as an out pitch instead of a primary pitch. Also, don’t be predictable and spam a location.
