Mini Seasons Strategy
-
I haven't had a ton of time to focus on this but these new Mini Season missions seem all over the place. I have no idea where I want to start or what to attack first, if there's any missions I just want to skip, etc. You need like 15 different lineups for this. Last one I skipped the All Star and HoF missions because they weren't worth the trouble, I used an all 2nd Half lineup until I got the 30 RBIs and used all Rookie/Breakout/Veteran pitchers until I got the 60 Ks then just went back to my normal lineup. But this seems like way more trouble.
Anyone have a decent plan of attack that's working for you?
-
I started by making a bronze lineup with silver pitching and playing on veteran. After I completed those, I created a FOTF lineup. I just completed that. I've played 15 games so far. Now I'm going to attempt the 40 xbh one with rookie and prospect cards. Hopefully I can do it. You could use gold pitchers with fotf and play on all star, but I'm skipping that one.
-
I'm not sure if this is the best approach, but what I've done so far is I started with Bronze hitters, and depending on the team I've played allstar against the worse teams and vet against the cats and whales. What I've been trying to do is score runs in the first to line up my gold starter for the win, and switch to a silver reliever after, but it doesn't always work out that way
-
That's not a bad idea. Maybe split your pen with half gold half silver in case you don't get a run in the first. I may try that next time.

My first run since the new update, I went with 5 rookies/prospects and 3 bronze hitters in my lineup with silver pitchers for the k’s. I wanted to get started on the 40 xbh, which is quite a bit. Knocked out the 25 hits with bronze players. Switched back to rookie finished up the xbh and filled my roster with fotf and crushed that out real quick in the playoffs.
I think working on the xbh with prospects/rookies is key. 25 hits with bronze players isn’t bad. And the total bases with fotf goes real quick.
One of the mystery missions is striking out 5 batters in one game with any Roy Halladay card. Easy one time BIAH pack.
I think this strat is easiest and quickest. Getting the 10 wins with gold pitchers on all-star could be added to it but just seemed easier to knock out the rest of the season on rookie. Winning the championship is the most lucrative mission anything before that is a great bonus.

Sure its easier to skip the 10 wins with gold pitchers, but that mission rewards you with 20k worth of cards. It's worth it

I'm not sure you can accomplish it all in one run. I went with Bronze Hits/silver ks first on veteran. I wanted those low BR cards for collections. Next was FOTF TB very easy. Then Prospects but this came down to the championship game getting 3 xbh. I skipped Gold wins because you have to play on Allstar and that makes getting to other objectives that much more difficult.
-
I start with a fotf lineup and by the time I get to 30 runs and the tbs the season's over. Simple really...
-
Done it twice. Definitely go the Silver Pitcher Mission on Veteran as that can be done in tandem with any number of hitter missions. Me, I bang the FOTF Total Bases one first as that only takes 4-5 games. Then I do the Prospect/Future Star Mission which takes a little longer since it’s 40 XBH. Usually from there I just put my regular lineup in to finish the season and playoffs but in theory you could try another mission. But I quit out once I get to 18 wins as that has always gotten me 1st place (prefer home field for playoffs) so just comes down to whether you want to finish the season fast or more missions.
-
I have done the following
Gold pitchers and FoTF offense - TB mission now done and 6 wins for gold pitches
Once I get to 10 wins I'll switch to silver pitchers and bronze hitters. 25 hits should take 5-7 games using hit contact guys
I have no interest in the prospect mission or the sac fky mission more value in doing the other 5 missions

this season has some very high yield easy missions then some that simply arent worth it
FOTF lineup with as many as possible, and if they cant play a position then have them ready to pinch hit. get those TB quickly and play on all star bc you will be starting gold pitcher: glasnow, darvish, hunter green are all vvery good golds that pitch very quickly. in your pen is all silvers excluding 2-3 gold releivers in case you dont score in the first inning and you need to pull your SP. the goal here is to get those 10 gold wins for the gold choice pack that nets you 15k stubs. then silver pitchers rest of the way after 10 wins for the 50 strike outs.dont bother doing the bronze or prospect garbage. also the sacrifice fly ive done by doing speed guys bunting then stealing to third and playing at forbes, but frankly not worth it at all.
so summary: FOTF then normal lineup
gold SP plus 2 gold relivers rrest all silvers. win 10 games wiht gold then silvers until 50 k then jusst complete the season -

You do not have to do them in the same season. Just restart.

Bronze lineup and silver pitchers to do those two missions on veteran, then when I complete the bronze hitting switch to FOTF lineup,(this takes about 10 games) once I finish pitching with silver add gold and play 4-5 games on all star then that should get me to the playoffs and complete the rest of the gold wins in playoffs

Did they change the packs to flashback and legends from br rewind? I swear it was a bronze, silver and gold br pack. Did I miss something?
