    I've played a bunch of NMS players that are terrible as well. Who cares how they get their team? I spent my normal $100 on opening night and have AL West done as well as 70% of the total collection. Also, Kirk Gibson is amazing.

    Flipping and decent pulls?

    Basically. I've probably opened well over 1000 packs. Buy a bundle, sell everything in it and repeat. Only keeping the big boys. In the first 4-5 days I was able to completely recoup the cost of almost every bundle by selling the contents.

    I bought a few 10 packs and pulled a few of those Chase packs I got LS diamonds I sold to help get the dodger collection done. I flipped cards of teams I am doing collection on, I buy 3-5 each to make a profit of the ones that have a decent margin even if it only gets me 40 stubs back it all adds up, I use those flip to continue buying players from the collection, I know I could go such for better margins but for me it is easier this way, I am one card from the NL west and about Half way with the NL Central. I sell almost everything I get to use it toward the team I am trying to collect.

    Does he limp around the bags after a dinger? That would be epic 😎

    Feel free to DM me with your detailed flipping strategy as I have yet to come across anything really worth flipping. I know the casuals are just coming on line now but I'm impatient hahaha.

    I flipped the Okazaki cards the past two days until I was able to keep all of them with 40k left in the bank for future flips. There are better cards out there, and no collection reward for them, but the card art really grew on me.

    I really thought Okazaki cards along with the cover cards would go up in price yesterday since new players would buy some and you cant get them in packs. I think the headliners helped to drive them down instead, so clearly I have no idea what I'm doing lol.

    Wait, the anime cards can be obtained in packs? This is news to me. Standard Packs, Headliner Packs, BOAH Packs, which packs?

    I don’t know about him, but I pulled Trout on launch night. He’s not THAT hard to pull. I’ve gotten him multiple times every year.

    I detailed that above I believe. I opened 1500+ packs in the first 4 days. Pulled Trout, Turner (x2), Acuna, Vlad, Max (x4), Burnes (x6), Pujols (x4), Ohtani and a ton of lower guys. Buy a bundle, sell everything under 90 ovr/dupes, recover more than cost of bundle and repeat. Doesn't work now, only during early access every year. I've done it for the last 3 years with great success.

    Edit: Actually just checked pack history. I have opened 2,475 packs (99 pages x 25 per page). I won't buy packs the rest of the year though, I'll only open free packs.

    I am not a statistics major, but if the odds of pulling a diamond from a regular pack are 1:50 and the odds of pulling a high diamond from that diamond pack when you hit it are 1:10 and there are 8 high diamonds. Would the odds of getting Trout be 50x10x8 or 1:4000 packs?

    I don't understand your question. I bought them with stubs using only my initial $100 investment, if that is what you are asking. I haven't invested more than $100 not including the cost of the digital deluxe version in the 3 years I have been using this method.

    Can't answer that but I got him in probably the first 1500 packs.

    I'm NMS, but this year I refuse to flip. I'll just sell duplicates. Flipping is soul-crushingly boring to me...
