Extreme disappointment from an older player.

Trout fits the bill perfectly though. He's an objective 5 tool player that lacks nowhere. The only real differences between him and Honus is the fact that Honus came out of nowhere, and played at a much thinner position talent wise. Trout being an OF is really the only factor that hurts this card.
Solid analysis. Except you forgot to mention we already have a 95 overall live series Trout with quirks activated in game that costs 250k. So I need to 1-2 million stubs to have 2 Trout's? What do I do with the other one?
This is a complete failure of a choice. A joke really.

Mike trout is 28. He is already well within the top 50 all time war leaders. He has never finished below 4th in MVP voting since his first full season.
It's foolish to question how great he has been. Top 5 already, is not that ridiculous.

I don't even mind it being Trout, I just wish they would've given him better stats. It is a lot of cards to collect for someone who doesn't even have 100+ in each hitting category and his vision is less than 90. At least with how much it takes to get him at least juice him up a little bit more
vision means almost nothing this year. Contact is more important and he has very good contact. Also his power is amazing. Anyone comparing his live series card to this one because of the quirks doesn't really understand the PCI unless they're like mcgunski and never misses the ball with the PCI no matter how small it is. Compare his live series to his awards card and every single category goes up considerably except for one or two defensive stats.
Vision is affecting the timing windows now. Check the size difference between two players with different vision attributes. The Timing feedback window will show you. The size of the green area for good timing gets bigger with higher vision.

Trout is arguably Top 5 player of all time so it’s quite fitting IMO
i agree with you

The most disappointing thing about this post is that you called yourself "old". I'm 56. Everything else was fine though

I'm also older but the only issue I have with Trout is that we already have an end game CF in Mantle. So give me any position but CF. I would have been on with another Honus. He seemed like a beast in the game and in real life and at a thin position

Unless MLB started In 2000 this is frankly ridiculous.
If you project out his WAR to 20 or 22 years he makes it into the top 5 barely. This assumes of course he plays that long and continues to produce. It is definitely a bold statement but not too outlandish.

Wouldn't it be great if the creators of this game came out and told us what each attribute means and what it effects? Instead of all of us having to guess. Thanks for the info I did not know that.

When you take the best current player, and stick him as a collection reward for cards across all legends and flashbacks, and the card is last year's MVP, it's the definition of "mailing it in".
This took no thought, had no mystical anticipation once released about how the card will play, and was the easiest way out in what has already been a disappointing MLB baseball season.
As an adult in my late 40's, I understand the desire for more recent players. The entire rollout of Future Stars and now this have shown that you are alienating one generation of player for the other.
You guys really blew it here, and in a big way.
Trout could have been a boss, or instead, the LS collection, with Mantle being your ultimate chase.
Everything you rolled out this year was backwards and again.... Disappointing in how it was implemented.
First alienating with gameplay...and now their taking your content....crossing fingers for '21

Ha...you're just a kid in my book...."I'm old" just reverse your numbers for me.
