Almost impossible to finish Live Series collection now

They need to remove the cap on non-diamond cards.
So that cards like Kazmir and Diaz can sell for 100,000K?
It's the scarcity of the cards, so removing the cap just makes the cards more expensive to obtain thus increasing the frustration.

Bruh these commons would start out at 4-6k and them come down. At least then you'd have the option of buying it rather than be on a waiting list.

Sorry, I stand corrected...one of the cards has 3,903 bids for $2,500. At this point I'll be waiting until the next game comes out.
No you won't
Diaz has 9,956 bids for $2,500....it has moved by less than 10 in the last 24 hours. You were saying...?
At least 57 have been sold in the past hour. You were saying...?
r/confidentlyincorrect
OK I believe you, but why isn't that updated number reflected by showing less bids?
Why would you be looking at the number of bids as a measure of how many were sold? You do realize more people could put in bids at any time, right? If 10 are sold, but 12 people put in bids during the same amount of time the line will actually get longer. That is why it is best to just put in your 2500 stubs (pocket change at this point in the game) and wait your turn.
So how is someone supposed to know where they are in line then?
-
Step 1) Write down how many people have orders.
Step 2) Create a 2500 stub order and write down the time you made the order.
Step 3) Look at the transaction log to see how many cards have sold since your order went live, and subtract from how many people had orders when you started.
Step 4) ???
Step 5) PROFIT!
And just in case it wasn't obvious before, you should be doing all of this on the website or the app.

Im having the same issue he is my last one Diaz to complete the live series

Did SDS just give out Trout cards in the last two weeks? I am wondering why so many people need one common Angel all of a sudden to finish collections. There were other teams that added commons to their teams but it seems like Diaz is the only one with this frenzy happening.
The current queue of 13,000 would take over 9 days to get through if cards sold at a pace of one card per minute. If you put in your bid when there was 10,000 then it would take about a week at that pace.
Of course there will be slow times when that pace is not not met so add a day or two for variance.

Trout is the big gatekeeper and he has dropped in price a lot over the past month. In fact, you can get him for less than 100k now. That means more demand for Diaz compared to new commons on other teams. Most people probably had those teams locked in for months.

Wow, I did not realize his price had gone that low.

Funny. Hadn’t pulled a Trout all year and last week I had 2 x High 90 Live Series packs and pulled an Acuna Jr. and yup, Trout!
-
Just don't worry about it, keep playing the game, opening your packs, and just having fun. I pulled my Diaz from just a regular show pack and finished my entire collection about a week ago. Trust me, you can finish the entire collection. It wouldn't be a challenge if they just gave it to you, which they pretty much did by letting us purchase players from the marketplace in the first place. The more you don't worry about it the faster it'll come and trust me you want that chipper Jones he is a BAMF
-
This thread is now 16 days old, hopefully the original poster put in their 2,500 buy order at that time. If they did then they almost certainly have Diaz at this point.
-
I just bought Trout for 70k and change. Now I know not to wait until the playoffs to complete collections. In the Diaz line somewhere around 12.5k.

I just opened 195 packs I'd saved up, because I stopped opening them up months ago (there was nothing live series that was going to improve my roster). No Diaz, I'd say you got lucky.
Side question: Don't know if anyone would know this or how you'd figure it out...if you open a pack months later, does it draw from the current player pool or the player pool the day you received the pack into your inventory?

Your side question is a joke right? Try it and let me know if you pull a scherzer still on the nats. I'll buy him off you for a good amount.
-
Lucky, I don't know about that, but maybe I am,considering that since I last replied on this thread I got another Diaz in a regular show pack. So yeah, it's possible to pull him from packs and like someone else said, if you would put your order in you'd have him by now but I didn't have to order him cuz I guess I got lucky....twice

Not talking about that. Talking about if I earn 10 packs one week, and a month later a player is called up and their card is put in the game from a roster update, if I open those 10 packs will they have a chance of pulling that new player or are the cards "assigned" to the pack at the time they're earned. Talking about new live card releases (like Diaz).
-
Yes, you would have a chance to pull the new player. If you earned 10 packs a month or two ago, and waited until today to open them, you would have a chance to pull cards like diaz.
-
Just count your lucky stars that you haven't got him yet, ever since I unlocked chipper, I've opened a [censored] ton of packs and I haven't got a single diamond player. I've got diamond equipment, and I've got diamond sponsorships, but I have not got a single diamond player since I have unlocked chipper Jones it's kind of b*******. Because there are plenty other cards out there that I don't have, I've unlocked mookie, but not Kershaw yet so I have quite a bit of cards yet to collect and I didn't have to earn them or buy them because I sure as [censored] don't get them in packs anymore
