I agree with SaveFarris about the more ways to earn difficult cards likely referring to BR or World Series cards. There was a decent amount of negativity regarding the long line of 1 million stub orders this past year. I hope they have found a good balance.
I assumed the market would be combined, but that was a constant question on the forum over the past few weeks so I'm glad that cleared things up.
Also, since when can we include pictures within posts?
-
You probably always could. I just had to reverse engineer it to figure out how.

ARodArod is the only other one I see possibly being in this years game. I think this will be more of a "club" or milestone series than anything (500 HR club, 3000 H, 300 wins, 3000 k's, triple crown etc

I would say you are correct!

Imagine if Joe Dimaggio gets a milestone card "56 Game Hit Streak" and he's the final big legend reveal tommorrow / AL Collection reward.

ARodYeah - I suspect it will include 30/30 as well and potentially other milestones as 40/40 by itself wouldn’t have enough cards for a series.
-
I don't think that series is just a 40/40 club series to have just 3 or 4 cards I think it's a "club" series so we will see 30/30 guys and 300 strikeouts in a season. The 300 strikeouts in a season could spawn 5 or 6 cards with the active players and legends that are in the game now Kershaw, Mad Max, Verlander, Walter Johnson, Pedro, Feller. That said I think you need some BIG name guys for that series so a Big Unit card for 300K season would be
-
This has huge potential.

Unlikely. I interpret it as there being more ways to make stubs/earn cards. Maybe it they add other ways to earn WS/Flawless rewards (although that kills incentive to work to WS/Flawless outside personal satisfaction). Obviously will need to wait until tomorrow for more deets.

I think its a milestone/"rare" (or hard to accomplish) feat type club -- similar to what you're noting. A few notibles
40/40 Club (likely only Soriano at this point)
Triple Crown winners (Miggy, Mantle, Ted Williams, Gehrig, Foxx, Hornsby, and a few others)
300 strikeouts in a season (quite a few can be used between current/legends)
300 wins in a career
4HR games
Perfect game throwers? (Cy Young, Catfish Hunter, Dennis Martinez are all in the game and opens a door for quite a few legends -- Randy Johnson, Cone, Wells, Halladay, Felix)Some other achievements might be like: HR in first career AB (theres quite a few current players), Players who hit for cycle, HR streak (a few had 6+ straight games that are in the game) etc

All cards are grind able: Doubt they get rid of BR/RS only cards. No way you can grind out if these modes for these cards because it would tank the market. But interested to see what they mean.
Prestige System Revamped: Possible offline stats?

Yeah, these may be milestone type cards that are seasons worthy of note but did not earn those players actual awards the year they happened.

I am of the same mind. They may actually consider winning a BR run grinding. Hard to make assumptions without knowing their definition of grind.
-
MOMENTs is a core feature yay said no one ever . They gotta be trolling they know we hate moments
-
I wonder if they are going to merge the BR 12-0 and the WS rewards. “Play the modes you want to play. To earn Signature Series Ted Williams, go 12-0 in BR or make World Series in ranked seasons!” For example.
It would help with the scarcity of the BR rewards, at least. And kind of streamline things a little bit. With all the new players I think they are going to continue to encourage the “play the way you want to play” mantra.
Also I think “all cards are grindable” has already been in place, right? You could achieve every card in 20 by just playing (or buy on the market). Technically that was already true. Yes you would have to be a very good player or accumulate a lot of stubs, or both. But it’s still true that every card was achievable
