How are nms players getting collections done?
-
Just curious how yall are approaching collections. I got the al central done off rtts, but the market is really tight and exchanges aren't it this year. I've just been playing through some events, but teams like the angels or Mets just seem impossible rn for me
-
Don't buy everything new and shiny. Put it all towards collections. It's not rocket surgery....
-
I'm curious as to when you guys usually get the live series collection done. I'm probably in the top 1% of stub earners year to year via flipping and I have never once completed the live series before mid May
-
I have a hard time believing anyone who has it complete did stubbs.

I mean agreed. I don’t flip, but if flipping is so easy as to get nms players LS done less than 3 weeks from early release, SDS have design issues. The show is the best nms game on the market, but nms typically exchanges money for time.

Don’t buy packs, flip, invest. Have about 100k invested in prospects
-
flipping cards, Selling off anything I get and putting those to the team I am working on, That is how I started out this year was great but now all I need is the higher diamonds for most teams. I had some good pack luck this year,
-
slowly…. im at a solid 0/30.

Filliping
Mystery CQ Map 5 free packs each time you do it, Sell off all dups I think I done this Map at least 50 times if not more. Got some good pulls from it,
Free packs earned,
Of course Sell off all dups and anything you do not need at this time. No need to collect equipment I do not use a CAP, no need for any animations, or perks etc....
Diamonds I still need
Trout
Ohtani
Cole
Vlad Jr
Bichette

I keep every Event card I get. Pablo Sandoval and Prospect Yasel Antuna are the only cards I've bought off the market that aren't LS cards.
I'm at 550XP and haven't done any Conquest, Showdowns or anything else offline.
No big pulls. Just playing the game. We're only a few weeks in. The cards aren't going anywhere
-
Nl al central are done. Just need to finish Boston, Yankees, Blue Jays, Ray's, Angels, Astros, Mets, Phillies, Dodgers, and Padres. Pulled trout on Saturday, and have pulled both Acuna and ohtani(both were sold)
-
Many trips through the Mystery Map and Mini Seasons have gotten me a lot of packs. I’ve been selling silvers, golds, and bronzes at inflated values to the impatient.
The market for silvers, golds, and bronze cards has shriveled, so I am going to start holding on to cards as investments for future exchanges. I have enough from pulls and stubs to finish out the NL West but I am in no rush.
-
This year I am taking it slowly. I'm enjoying the time I get because there isn't as much stuff to do so I've enjoyed each diamond I've gotten this year. Each year it's a rush to get it and then im just blah to the rest so I'm enjoying the slow grind.
-
I competed the AL yesterday. I did donate $5 to the Robinson Foundation, but I’d still say I’m NMS.
Grinded RTTS the first weekend, sold diamond perks and equipment when they were sky high, sold FOTF when they were sky high, earned all event cards (still holding), grinded BR and sold it all, grinded conquest and sold prospects, barely flipped at all, timed the market whenever I bought anything and never ever bought packs.
-
Boosting RTTS. Just look at the profiles. 48 hours of RTTS in two weeks lol

Oh sorry, I guess we call batting .986 on a brand new difficulty “GriNdiNg”

Don’t buy packs!!!! Every stub you earn should go to the LS collections. You can complete most teams for under 15k stubs. The teams with a bunch of diamonds like the Mets, Braves, Dodgers, Astros, And Angels because of Trout and Ohtani are going to cost you 500k plus to complete. So you’ll need to attack the market to accrue those stubs to complete the collection. You can easily complete the LS collection in the first month. The key is don’t buy packs!!!! They are a complete waste of money with rarely no decent return on investment.

You're just everywhere being a bastion of misinformation. Not everyong boosts RTTS and for you to think and accuse of such is nothing short of childish

Just bought Trout yesterday. I didn't have early access and really only started grinding hard 9 days ago. Mini seasons seems to be the best way to grind offline.
No lucky pulls just bought the Mantle/Utley 88s to get started and built a team with the no sell fof cards. Sold them yesterday for about what I paid.
