2021 Lightning Players
-
Are any of the Lightning players from THIS SEASON worth having right now?
I THINK I can get the MA voucher WITHOUT getting the Lightning bosses.
That way I also don't have to buy, or do the moments, for any of the TN cards.
I will have to buy at least two Awards series players, not counting Parker when I get him, to get that voucher instead.
And it may be cheaper and easier to buy two Awards cards than a minimum of 20 TN cards.
Heck I could skip buying ANY Awards cards and wait until next Inning (I know I didn't want to wait earlier) when some of the bosses are released again; driving down their prices?
That would mean I would just have to do all the Moments for the MA Program; either buy two 2nd Heroes cards (or get to 90 points in the BR Program) to get those vouchers and then finish off with the Awards voucher for Griffey.
In the mean time I can keep Mantle (going to the bench when I get Griffey Jr) in CF and parallel him.
I assume if I wait until the middle of January; there would be enough time to get a good amount of playing time with Junior before the new game drops?

That depends, do you only want the best absolute God squad and nobody else? If so, obviously you don't have to get any of the lightening players as there are plenty of Meta types that can be used. Tyler O'Neil is an insanely good choice but not necessarily the best option possible. I love Robbie Ray and Joey Votto too. Other people all say Schwarber is great but I can't hit with him to save my life. To me, I want all the cards, especially all diamonds, but if that's not your goal, then no worries.

Don't you still have 2 mil stubs? Just spend them man.

I have no problem spending them. But when I only need one more TN card, to get 25 for the collection, so I can get Lightning Buxton; and the only two I don't have are Silver Garcia who has 5 Buy Orders and none for sale (I put one in last night and I think I was number 39 and Gold France (put in a 14000 Buy Order last night and still waiting; it may be faster to skip the TN voucher and Lightning players.
I could do the Moments for those two cards; but if I'm going to do Moments; I'd rather do the MA moments and get that voucher.
Plus, I don't know how long I'd have to wait for the other TN cards I would need from the other Programs.
If one of my Buy Orders goes through later this evening; I'll try the other TN cards.

Yeah, just looked at May TN Collection. There are 38 possible cards and you need all 3 for the Collection points.
Silver Kaprielian has 46 Buy Orders at 5000 stubs and Silver Vosler is at 12 Buy Orders for 5000.
That means I have to wait at least until 46 other people sell Kaprielian to get the 100pts.
I also need a total of 125/132 TN cards to get that Voucher.
I'll have to see where I sit after I do the MA Moments and price out the remaining TN cards I need.

Can't you win these in Topps moments or on the Monthly program?

This. Even if I do the MA Moments; that's about 6-8 per month. That will get me the TN packs; but since you only get to pick one if the possible two cards per round, I would either have to but the others or do the TN Moments.
I haven't done ONE SINGLE TN Moment so I have ALL 26 weeks and at 4-7 Moments per week; that would take me awhile to finish. And that's if I get one week done per day.
It's easier for me to just do the MA Moments and either but the other TN cards or skip the TN collection and buy two Awards cards.

Buxton and Schwarber & Ray may have been the best 3 in terms of wow factor, so if you want them for performance, get those 3 at least.
-
If you put half the time into the moments and the program as you do posting novels on this board you would legit almost have them done. Just play the game man
-
is there a correct answer to any of these questions?
-
Just grind them out. None of them are too bad plus you get XP. Honestly all of the the lightening players are pretty good in their own right. Maybe not God tier end game but Oneil, Schwarber and Ray can still put in work.

So he wants the rewards without putting in the work.
Hard No.

No. I'd rather spend stubs to get the players than to play mind-numbingly awful Moments. Especially pitching ones where you only control the pitcher and watch an infielder make a bad play on a ground ball that, if played correctly, would have completed the Moment. But instead it gives the CPU a hit, by the LAST hitter, in a pitch 7 innings without giving up a hit scenario.
