Prepping for TA4
-
How long have you guys been preparing for TA4?
I grinded out TAs 1-3 the hard way and don’t miss it at all so I’m hoping to just do exchanges for TA4. Finished TA3 in mid-July and haven’t sold a single card since Whit my eye on completing TA4 as soon as it drops by just doing exchanges with everything I’ve said up in Inventory. Anyone else hoping to pull this off too?
-
I've just kept any silver and below cards I've gotten, I'm pretty much set and doubt I'll have to buy anything to finish the exchanges.
-
I’ve been stocking up pretty aggressively for about 3 months. I’ve focused primarily on buying a taintload of 76s (always shooting for 120 stubs or less) and 72s-74s (from QS to 50). I also haven’t sold anything I’ve pulled from packs since august.
I’ll probably complete all the TA4 exchanges on Friday, but I’m sorta rethinking that plan. I am a little worried that if I do all 30 teams’ TA to 100% the day the new content drops that I will lose interest in the game. I like the stat grinds and inning grinds because it at least gives me goals or tasks to complete.
But tbh I don’t feel like putting in a metric wiener ton of sell orders, so I’m probably just going to say goodbye to my thousands and thousands of extra guys like I’m a TCU sorority girl going home for thanksgiving break.

Exactly how much is a 'taintload' and a 'metric weiner load'?
Show your math.

Show your math.
One taintload is equal to 4 cubic plum pouches and a metric weiner ton is roughly equal to 2000 trouser trouts.

You sick sick people where do you come up with the stuff you say? . I'd ask what's wrong with you but honestly no one could give me a straight answer. I think it may have to do with being dropped on your head as a baby. Perhaps you were abducted by Willy Wonka and made to live with the Oompa Lumpas? Maybe you are the love child of Dr. Suess and Courtney Love? Whatever it is keep doing what you are doing. Your takes are more legendary than the ones Jim Rome comes up with.

100% me. I'll shoot to have Soto/Bauer 30 seconds after they drop (like everyone else). But I'll do conquest, missions, etc. for the rest. I'm assuming there will be a TA4 mission "bundle" like there was for TA1, 2 and 3, right?
-
I’ve saved so many cards from pack openings that I have enough cards to finish at least 2 teams through exchanges for each division. So far I know I’m going for Soto, Bauer, Nick Anderson (gotta throw that Nick in there cause you never know if Tim gets one), Perez, and Cruz
-
I have been saving up stubs, and haven't sold any golds I have gotten in packs in the last month. I also have bought some. Same with silvers. I am going to exchange the Cubs, and then buy the other ones I want outright.
-
My prep for TA4: finishing TA3. Got the last FOTF card this week so now I'm waiting for 2 data points:
A. If the cards are prestigable
B. what the TA4 missions are.If the missions are repeatable, then I'm just gonna play, play, play because we've got till March (at least) to acquire stats. BUT ... if the cards are prestigable (and the stats seem reasonable to acquire) and prices stay where they are, I'll probably start buying for exchanges.
-
A couple of weeks ago I only had 5 completed stage 3's. I didn't even have all of stage 1's. Now I'm at all stage 3's completed by doing exchanges. And I'm ready to have up to 10 stage 4's done immediately upon drop.
-
I have at least 25 of each and every base round DotP packs and HRDerby1/2 packs ready to exchange. Plus a shitload of LS golds and diamonds. I honestly think I could complete every TA4 2-3 times over thru exchanges

Thanks for the humor you add to the board! You got quite the Imagination.

Ive been stocking for ta4 slowly since the last one came out. Couple nights a week I'll spend 30 mins to an hour hoarding cards.i would go through inventory team to team and try to have 5 exchanges in every team inventory. But this week prices shot up compared to what ive been paying so I'm just waiting now.
