Something about spending hundreds of dollars to have a significant advantage early on is so just gross to me. Cards and collections will be released to where guys can get great players without pumping tons money into the game. Guys compensating the skill gap by spending money just ruins the competitive players experience who relies on skill over their wallet.

I spend money because its cheaper to throw money at the game than to throw my time at the game.

Not only do I have him in my ranked seasons line up. I have him to tier 3 already. Bad take find a new slant.
Now if you want to give the guy who beat me to tier 5 [censored] I'm listening.
Because thats insane.

I bought Mantle week one last year and really regretted it.
So this year I built a decent team, but nothing special.
I don’t judge people that do it, because I have in the past. I wanted to use Mantle all year last year so I did it. Chipper this year didn’t have the same appeal to me. So I didn’t care to do it

Ive made 3mill flipping already and you're crying about someone having the AL reward, thats cute. Spend the time doing things right it aint hard to have a great team already

Myself I get satisfaction with Ultimate team games by building up my squad. Seems most ppl who do this that quick could care less about that part of it. They just want a competitive edge which is ok if you go that route. At that point SDS should have “Starter” bundles where if you spend $100s you get x,y, and z player to build you squad around

Also, a lot of times those god squads suck. Never offer a friendly quit when you see a god squad. It doesn’t mean they are any good.

I bought MLB the Show because everyone told me that the game had by far the best "ultimate team" mode of all sports games. Better than FIFA, Madden and NBA 2K. I can unequivocally say it is by far the worst, and the primary reason is that cards like this are even in the game yet. 99 first week the game comes out?? Complete joke. It would be months before seeing that in the other games. And the servers dropping 5 times a night...

Oh no doubt. Baseball is also different. In 2k I can buy the best card and I can run the ball through him every play if I wanted so huge advantage. Same thing with Madden. I can run the ball with Dickerson 50 times a game if I want. Baseball at the end of the day Ortiz is getting 3-4 ABs a game. Can’t do it by himself

I would say that's a plus, not a minus. Once I get the collections complete, those cards will be usable all year, If I was spending money, (I'm not), I wouldn't have to worry about those cards being obsolete and having to spend more.

Heres my end game 3rd, 2nd, and at worst an end game bench bat day 1.
Seems decent.

That’s where I’m at. I could do it but I kind of like grinding away and progressing towards the collection rather than getting it done week 1. It gives me a purpose to grind. However, I understand why the streamers get them done quick.

I have no issues with that, I'm not anywhere near them RN, but It's my main thing every year, my goal is to start chipping away at collections, it's a good incentive and is fun for me.

You do realize there are a good number of people who have completed the collections, right? Not even close to a major yikes.
That's $100s of dollars. I can't justify it.
Well, that’s like, just your opinion man.
I see you rolled your way into the semis. Dios mio, man.

To say that DD is worse than FIFA UT... insane is the only word that comes to mind.

There is only one thing FIFA is better at. Draining wallets. EA has made 6 BILLION in microtransactions since 2015, they make more off that then the base cost of the game.

Some people have the money to do it, power to them! To each his own. I would if I could. Some people do it because they’re content creators though. But why someone has collections done is not always money related. Some people are good at BR. Some people flip like crazy.

Bro I have collections completed nms having 99 ortiz is completely fine but if they suck then you can beat them with a fairly solid lineup. Just because you don't have ortiz yet doesn't mean other people who do this game for content or have fun can't have him. Also don't always assume that people who have collections done have spent money too

If you think madden, fifa and 2k ultimate team modes are better than mlb, you should head back there. This is by far and its not even close the best mode for having rewards, not needed to spend and stay competitive. The servers are a whole other thing and are garbage right now but there is no way any of those games are by far better than mlb. That is just absurd.
