As a new player I feel like I have done a good job figuring things out so far, but threads like this do make me wonder what in the heck I am doing. This
"summer collection" is just mystical to me at this point and it sounds like every card in the game will be trash outside of Chipper, Ortiz and Soriano. I find myself now wondering what in the world I should be doing and if finishing Live Series is even worth it.To complete that collection you need to have Legends and Flashbacks (Prime Cards, Awards cards, Signature Cards)

Your always gonna have azz hats but for the most part some good peeps here. Summer collection is a huge collection for arguably the best card in the game. You will need to collect different types of cards to get tickets for it. For example you will need like 20 Veterans and 25 prospects and so on

That card will be a 92 at Superfactor and will CRUSH rigthies
Probably a bench bat though. Just better guys at that position.
Why why does this have to be the comment for every single card that comes out.
Right now every card in the game with Buxton maybe being the exception will be a bench bat a month from now.
This mode is so much more then everyone's main squad. Will this card make an average to above average players main squad, of course not. This card is for the program for XP as well it will be needed for the All Star collection as well this card could be a beast in a future event. Also if there are mission for All Star cards he could be used for some team build line up.
I never said I was mad about the card. It's a free diamond and gives me 35,000 K XP. Probably gonna get the boss pack today because of it.
I never said you where mad either my question is why is the comment "bench bat, better guys at the position" always the comment?
Everyone knows this but it will or has been said 1000 times like it will change everything and SDS will go "good point, guess we only need 17 or so cards that are the best at each position and their is no dispute"
Now I wonder how that would turn out I can't think of a time when we only at 17 cards that where the best at their respective position and their was no debate....
Because it's true? What do you want me to say? This card is going to be endgame? I'm just being honest.
If you hit better with him than everyone else, yes he is end game. End game isn't determined by overall's, attributes, or market cost. End game is decided by your performance with the card.
I see so many people using cards because of their attributes, all though they're hitting .136 through 300 AB's with the card.

This may be one of the saddest threads I've seen in awhile... You all are ridiculous. Getting triggered and literally offended over nothing lol. Who cares if he says Mcgriff is a bench bat... I'll go one further. I will probably never use the card.. Ever.. Its going to be trash. Simple as that.. NOT EVEN A BENCH BAT.. And a couple of you are the same ones i see post how much harder showdowns were last year every single time they're brought up like everyone didn't already know it or there aren't posts everytime a showdown is released.
I'm using Dom Smith at 1st base. I'm not sure this card will even be on par with that. Plus I love Dom's swing.

Why on earth would it be an endgame card? The game turns a month old on Sunday. There is no need to comment "bench bat" when everyone and their mother knows that already. I see these comments all year round. If you don't want the card or it's not going to make you leave squad don't bother with it
Do new players know that it is a bench bat? Not saying I don't want the card just saying that it won't be my starting first basemen.
New players can figure it out themselves. New players are going to do the program anyway for the XP so it's their call if they want to use him or not. This isn't exclusively a comment made to help new players either. This comment is made every time content comes out and it's not a card like Griffey, Mays, or Bae Ruth 99
Did you just figure everything out on your own when you were new? Where you able to use every card and judge how well it plays in the game? Whats wrong with him saying it will be a bench bat? Is it that big of a deal to you? McGriff sucks.. One of the more overrated players of the 90s. He's a filler in this game. He isn't even a bench bat
When it comes to how cards play, yes. McGriff has always had a nice swing in this game. Any player program card will be filler, bench bat whatever you want to call it. True end game cards will only be in Ranked, BR, Team affinity late stages, and inning programs 5 and later. I don't mind the comment "bench bat" on its own. What it leads to it whining that Griffey, Babe, Pujols, Mays, Gehrig etc. and all the top pitchers weren't released instead. And when those guys do get released and there is no more cards that can top them the complaint is "why weren't these cards released in the first month". IMO it's not possible for every content drop to please everyone. If you don't want the card take your 35k XP and move on without a comment
I haven't seen a single post about players not being released yet and the person who said he was gonna be a bench bat didn't either. Just that it wont compete with those cards..

Not yet, you will. Also PSA to new players. All player program cards are for XP and collections down the line. If you want to use them, great, but they won't make your lineup 99% of the time

This is so true. Last year was my first playing DD and I found these forums so important to my overall understanding of the intricacies of the game. Yes, sometimes you have to wade through the negative or snarky comments but its a great community for the most part.
-
The truth of the matter is that the majority of players will never play a game on HoF difficulty. Most players will be playing all star all year. Pretty much any diamond player is viable in all star.
To most on this forum, no, you won't have much use for this card or any other, but for the thousands of players that won't need an "endgame" team I'm sure he'll be fine.
-
That being said @KingAKP_XBL and @MLBTS_MLBTS. I apologize for coming off as rude. I just don't like when people say "this card is an L" or "this card will never make my squad" because I'm a collector and mostly events player. Every card has some use to me. To me it's not all about the nonsense that RS is

Or maybe someone likes a player and wants to use that card. It's May, I don't get why everyone is worried about end game already.

Your free to use any card you want. Not saying the card is an L it will have a lot of power. I am a RS player that is usually around the HOF level and I don't think that card would be good there. That's just my opinion.

I agree with this. For the casual DD player, I'm sure this card is exciting. It's the second inning.. can't just throw out 99s every time. Will he crack my lineup, or even bench? No. And I'm a nms, mainly offline player.
