Are stubs too easy to obtain? (Unpopular opinion?)
-
I thick early on stubs weren’t easy to come by. I remember flipping with tiny margins over and over to get stubs. But the last month or so (as typically happens this time of the year) there are some pretty big spreads on a few cards in particular that you can flip over and over for 7-10k each time if not more. That plus the RIB pack cards still going for 20-25k on average has made a ton of new stubs in the past month or so (with much higher prices for things as a result).

@Original_Quad Exactly that. It’s a crapshoot. PCI is huge and the only thing that matters is mashing the ball, pitching and defense are, while not irrelevant, marginalised, for want of a better word. So we award the best cards in the game to the winners of a crapshoot.
The skilled players who get to 1000 in RS can have a 10 standard pack bundle and 30000 XP. Seems absolutely correct, yes.

377 Standard Packs
71 Headliners
458 The Show packs
21 Twitch Drops packs2020 so far... 1747 packs (does NOT include 2 Bronze/2 Silver Team Packs)
198 BIAG
61 Headliners
415 Team Affinity Packs
874 The Show Packs
199 Twitch PacksYes, having Twitch Drops has increased the # of packs.
Yes, double login rewards has upped things a little as well.
And yes, there was a LOT of conquesting going on early in the year to load up on a bunch of 10 pack bundles.But it's beyond arguable that they've doled out A LOT more packs this year.
At this you have to change your name to The SHOWSTORIAN

Why even have a cap. I wanna see what someone will pay on a truly open market for chipper and AJ Ramos lol
That would be a bad idea! You’ll have 100 or so guys out there absolutely destroying the market (and yes I’m including myself).

As a Madden and 2k My team player . This is my first year taking MLBTS seriously and actually grinding. I sacrificed the time I spent on madden to play mlb and it was absolutely worth it. I was surprised how much compensation we get , this game is the definition of a non pay to play game. I didn’t bought any stubs and I’ve racked up over 2mill stubs. Currently I have 800k stubs And my whole team it’s worth about 800k I would guess . I did get sum pack luck like 2 coles but that’s it. All you have to is play and you’ll be rewarded. I will come back to more mlb games it was a fun year and it’s still not over

Nah. I wanna see a 5 million stub buy order for chipper get filled lol.
Flip margins on normal cards won’t be effected. It isn’t like you are gunna see 700k sell orders on someone like Smoltz getting fulfilled (because you could do that now but no one lets the card value get that high).

The cap by tier should be removed entirely. Let Machado sit at 20k, let Ramos and Bard sit at 3k.
