1st inn collections

Right now this is the case. I think we are only on day 4 though, so let's hope they keep their word and the newer content in the next few days opens up more opportunities.

As others have pointed out....the collections are nothing new. Buying stubs is 100% optional and the first inning is always about the pre-order items that are buyable on the market. There are plenty of ways to get stubs in-game...its up to you if its worth doing the collections (you can always do them after the inning ends when prices go down if that's your choice -- assuming its the same as previous years).
Inning 2 collection is going to be all 3 inning 1 bosses so you're going to have the same complaint next month.

The “42” cards will likely go down in price when the game goes live for everyone. I was paying 16k for them shortly after it went live for preorders. People sold them early on to make some quick stubs. Then people started buying them for collections and to fill spots on teams. There wasn’t as much supply after day 1 so they crept up.

They will go up. You only get them through preorders. There wonky be any new supply added

I thought the packs were available along the at in the inning last year. I can’t remember..but I’m assuming there will be more ways and these will be quick sell value within a month

100% Categorically False.

As of now. My statement is true. I don't see them giving out more packs until the 2nd inning. Anyone just getting the game tonight does not have the packs. No more supply is added until SDS puts the packs elsewhere

So you gave us a collection that is only attainable by paying for stubs. Seeing how the 42 series players you need are the ones you get for free with your pre order. The only way to get them is through the market for 32,0000 a piece. Absolutely ridiculous. Give us a collection we can at least grind for the cards that go into the collection to complete. But nah let’s make them buy stubs to complete this mission. Do better SDS
Are you new to the game? Go to the market and start flipping cards! What you think SDS is going to give you everything for free?

Exactly what I was thinking... I am a little uninterested in what has been provided mostly this year
I am NMS and I have all the 42 Legends, deGrom, Bellinger, and Arenado. I haven't pulled any diamonds from Show packs either.

People here talking like flipping is fun. If it’s your thing fine, but most people don’t want to play a Wall Street simulator. There’s just so many hours in a day to play

I honestly throw on some orders and play a game of Conquest. Then I deal with the completed transactions. I try to keep it to 3 or 4 orders. You can sort the market pretty easily to find the card you are working on.

I thought you could collect the through team affinity?
There are 10 Legends in the 42 series that only come from the preorder packs. Each MLB team has a player. You get 2 cards as collection rewards, which brings the total cards you need for 99 Jackie to 42.

Pretty much the most market work I’ll do myself. List/QS multiples I draw and play the long game.

I spend so much time early on playing Showdown and MTO, that I don't even need a good team. I haven't collected the legend 42s yet, so I will probably sell them tomorrow and try for a Trout.
-
As of right now these cards are expensive but I think just wait awhile and there price will start dropping. I figgure these cards might be in conquest maps all year. Last years version of the preorder packs went down to 5k and they were also expensive when first dropped (15/20k i believe) and i expect the same to happen to these.

Sure.. once the packs are available to anyone, the price will drop. There are just a finite number right now which is causing them to gain value.

Exactly, but that won't be until at least the 2nd inning. Another reason these are more expensive than years past is because of the Jackie collection. They rose today and this week then drop once the conquest packs start rolling in

Ya SDS wants those cards available to new players on launch night, not the second inning. Lots of “investors” are about to learn their first lesson. Expect the unexpected.

Collections cost stubs. That is absolutely nothing new at all
The difference this year is the xp path is included with the inning program. The preorder diamonds were part of the xp rewards path last year. We will see how they will be release to gain without paying for them.

Yeah but they weren't all that early in the XP path IIRC. I expect to see them in the 2nd inning + conquest map personally
