and locking cards into inventory were goofs
Not a goof. If they're going to give you an updated version of they card, they're not going to let you sell off the old version.
I'm not talking about locking in for Prestige. I'm talking about locking cards in general and having multiple dupes of unsellable cards.

Particularly when the card you've spent all that time on isn't even that players final form. Its like going Super Saiyan, then realizing an Ultra Instinct version exists.
But seriously, I get that Helton, Chipper, were first inning program cards, 7 months ago. But you can't help but feel a void when you locked in said card, achieved the middling stat requirements to get this version, and towards the end, didnt mean jack dookie anyway.
Shouldn't be more than 1 version of a legend.
Bingo. I like the prestige aspect of the game IF they can somehow work around the dashboarding issue as has been beaten like a dead horse on this forum.
Inning Bosses should be BOSSES. I've played video games since the 80's and in the VG world bosses mean the head honcho, top man, the end all be all. At Hanley Ramirez and Bob Feller to that list.
I am sure there are others like me but my Events and RS lineups are almost always based on prestiging players. If I had known the cards listed above were not their top cards this season I definitely would have worked on prestiging others instead.

Honestly, I like prestige, plus it's not like you didn't know that the 1st inning Helton wasn't going to be useable at this stage, you locked him in knowing that. I enjoy the stat grinds and while the prestige concept could use a few tweaks, I would love them bringing it back next year.
Only if we revert to a single card per legend. Make that adjustment and I'd agree.
The Smoltz brothers would like a word with you in private...
need to specify the Smoltz triplets. I don't count that lower diamond that was essentially given to everyone.

It was pretty obvious though that those cards were going to get upgraded versions later, it wasn't a secret, that's how it was for early 2019 bosses to.

I wish they would put the prestige for offline stats as well because I don't play online as much and I would definitely have a few prestige guys now with the off line play I do.
What do you suggest they do for offline? Statistically? Accumulate 5X more than online? 10x?
I like the idea of making it to where stats only count on Hall of Fame or higher level offline.

Prestige is great and gives events more reason to play. Sds ignore this bs whiny complaint

I honestly would have been okay with Prestige programs if they were able to be completed offline. But since they're online only, get rid of them in 21.

@The_DoctorsWife
Also yeah I've said they need to add offline stats too, even if they're 2x online requirements. -

Um...... the one small difference with 2019 is that there wasn't the Prestige concept. It was not "pretty obvious" that they would have higher cards if you take into account what the word Prestige means as well as some of the synonyms of the word. There is nothing prestigious about having a 96 version of a card when there is a 99 version. I'll add that the 99 card (Chipper Jones) is more difficult to acquire. That 99 Chipper is Prestigious.

Prestige is the only reason I still have interest. No matter how much I play, there are much better players out there. Prestige gives me goals.
i agree completely mate. i earn my prestiges no baby team name changing to ask for points - so it feels good to earn those red cards - i am like 5 hits away from blood bellinger super stoked
