Thoughts on preparedness for TA5
-
I have all cards listed below with what I need. I am sitting on enough cards for about 300k. What one card would you buy if you were me in preparation for the TA5 big collection?
HRD
ASG
42
2nd Half
Prospects
TN
MA
Rookie
BO
AS
VetFS: 40/41 (Torkleson)
Prime: 27/28 (Syndergaard)
Sig: 48/52 (Ruth, Gwynn, Wagner, Arenado)Award: 51/55 (Donaldson, Bench, Bellinger, Kaline)
MS: 76/81 (Kluber, Eck, Gagne, Hersh, Davis)
Finest: 29/33 (Garcia, Marte, Nimmo, Woodruff)
I do have an unopened BR program reward for November with a choice of MS Kluber, Sig Arenado or Award Bellinger.
I am 5 RS wins away from one of MS Davis or Award Donaldson.
I am 10 RS wins away from one of MS Hersh or Sig Wagner.

Buy 2 sigs or 1 finest. The collection voucher for each collection is likely going to be a multiple of 5 so you've got everything else basically covered.

Plus I am within 20k of the 9th inning inning pack.

Explain the multiple of 5 logic please. We're the prior TA's multiple's of 5?

I think if they required 95% from each series many people would have trouble getting the big collection for a bit.

Assuming you are collecting for the final big collection that's dropping with TA5 tomorrow, the answer to your question is yes.
The other vouchers for Mookie, Kershaw, etc were mostly (I believe all, but not at my console to confirm so I'll say mostly) multiples of 5. Pretty sure it was the same in 19 and 20 as well, but again I don't have that info in front of me so I won't say with 100% certainty.

I don't think the collection will be that massive as far as cards needed. There aren't enough cards left to release to help people catch up. It will be Ohtani, Jackie, Seager, Whoever the finest collection reward is and +5, 10 at the absolute max to what Kershaw's requirements are. Milestones might have a bigger jump because there are so many if those
-
They also didnt mention the collection in the tweet for tomorrow's stream. To me, it's weird that they haven't hyped it even a little.

It is listed on the schedule for tomorrow. They are calling it legend and flashbacks, but wouldn't a Finest card technically be a flashback on drop?

I think it is going to be big. You will likely need more than 90% of each set

I think you have far more than will be needed. Sig Series and Milestones will take the biggest jump, but for the rest, I dont see them going up dramatically over Kershaw. Here is what I think you'll need:
Finest - 50 (including the 30 from tomorrow)
Posteason - You'll need Saeger
Veteran - 50
All Star- 60
Breakout- 35
Rookie - 50
Future Stars - 30 *Maybe 35 on this one)
42- You'll Need Jackie
HR Derby/AS - You'll Need Shohei
Monthly Awards - 60
Topps Now - 125 (that's a crazy number, but if you have done all of them, you would have it)
Signature - 45
Awards - 45
Prime - No idea with this one, but logically, it would be 25
Prospects - All 40
2nd Half Heroes - 30
Milestone - 70
Rivera - You'll need Mariano
Kershaw- You need Kershaw
Mookie - You'll Need MookieThat's 20 collections, and I think you'll need 18 vouchers (so you can skip 2).
Just guesses on my part, but that's what I think

Agree. Don’t think you have anything to worry about…
