Live Series Collection Advice
-
Have everyone except Cole, Trout, Acuña, DeGrom, Tatis, Bellinger and Betts. I have 500k right now. Do I save up til I have enough for all of the top guns or start chipping away and buy while I have the stubs. Guys like Trout, Tatis, Acuña, and DeGrom have only gotten more and more expensive since the beginning of the year. 1.3 Mil approximately for the last few guys is pretty steep
-
I usually try to just save and knock out one league at a time, which unfortunately means 800k for Cole plus Trout, or around the same amount for the other side. I would just pick one side and do it that way until it’s done. The frequent stubs sales have not helped with the prices, but we should see them start to come down assuming that there isn’t another sale soon

Depends if you play online or not. If you do, go for Acuna and DeGrom to get Glavine; if not, there’s no wrong answer. I was in the same boat as you, except I pulled Acuna in first 2-3 weeks, and went and got DeGrom to get Glavine. I’m missing only Betts, Belli Trout and Cole with 300k as of now. Inching there.

What we need is a packs sale, but it’s too early still, unfortunately.

I’m mostly offline. I’ll play BR now and then but definitely don’t enjoy RS. I need some pack luck. Best Diamond I’ve pulled this year was Judge.

If you don’t play online you really don’t need the collections tbh. If you still want to do them I disagree with other guy and I say go for AL first. Trout one of the best cards in the game, someone argue he is the best, and he will soon get the IE boosts again. Ortiz is way better than Soriano. Posada is a beast. Just my opinion tho.
But offline im running through conquest just to work in parallels and I benched all the top bats at parallel 5 and still beat up the cpu so again it isn’t really needed. My team is still a 96 tho lol.

When I’m up to date on conquest maps, I grind TA with that repeatable map where you get 3 packs for only 3 teams (Oak, NYY and SD). When I get a good amount, I make an opening session and hope for luck and make good money on the silvers.

If it were me, I'd focus on the NL west. I LOVE Steve Finley...

I have Buxton parallel 4 already so I don’t need Rickey. Never liked his cards either

The last 2 years I was absolute dog $hit with Finley cards. I’ll still need him to unlock Mariano Rivera tho

I was last year as well. This year, though, it's a different story for me at least.

With the prices the way they are I wouldn't do them honestly. I pulled trout from a standard pack and that's the only reason I did the collections this year.
Tons of good cards available -
I would go:
- Trout
- Cole
3 NL guys in whatever order. But pick one division to do first
Trout’s price is the least likely to drop significantly. Demand will pretty much always exceed supply. Grabbing Cole after gives you Ortiz. With those two in place a quarter of your lineup is set. After that it’s kind of your call, Finley and Glavine are both awesome. Soriano sucks but chipper is a god (particularly w/ all the LHP in ranked). Hope this helps!
