SDS gets [censored] when they let you get Jackie Robinson or a 92 Lou Gehrig for little

Just because it came out today doesnt mean you need to have it today. Its something to work for ffs.
And no, you dont need every voucher. You can skip one.
What does ffs mean? Are you cussing?

For Frank's sake. Just a guess...

I love the fact that they released so many cards that you can earn for the collection. By the end of the program it should be easy to get Brett.
I hate the fact that they released so many cards that you can earn for the collection, it destroyed the market for my flashbacks and legend cards….
The last part.

I’m a little confused about how the market tanked - don’t you still basically need 80+% of the cards per category?

Came out today or came out a 2 weeks ago it’s still way too much. To make 100k stubs you need to play for like 4 or 5 days, maybe even 6. Unless you have a faster way. And I’m literally looking at it rn You need 16/16 voucher. There’s only 16 vouchers. Babe Ruth, Mauer, 2nd half, prospects, Allstar, awards,breakout, FOTF,Milestone, Monthly Awards, postseason, prime, rookie, signature, tops now, and veteran. You need all of those to get Brett. In prior years you could skip one

It is a lot right now, but lets not act like the release of 1 Takashi card and 2 awards cards in a cheap fashion doesn't cut the price of him down by half a mil

Didn't they say that their expectation was that it would not be unlocked quickly, and that there will be more cards for all the series continuing to be released making them easier for those wiling to wait.
They said the same thing last year with mookie and kershaw and with trout the year before but they were more attainable than this. No collection is supposed to be easy that’s why it’s a collection but they went over board with this one. That’s all I’m trying to say. And plus They are a million dollar company which means they do strategic things like this to try and make us buy Stubs.

Right the irony you complaining about my post lol…

I dont mind it being tough. That said I was fairly prepared. Had about 90% in each category with roughly 400k stubs. The only major buy I had to do was Brandon Crawford around 95k, the rest of the guys I had to get were under 30k. Just needed to get Blackmon from the program and 4 cards from the path to get him and just took an hour of gameplay.
I'd say just focus on live series, mauer and babe in that order and then make sure to grab all the cheap cards you can ie (event rewards, base round cards from packs, etc.) I expect they slowly start adding signature, milestone, prime and awards categories to make those easier. The rest of the categories have cards from this program.

There is only 16 vouchers because the 17th voucher has not been discovered yet which is the FS one. No one has locked in 27 FS cards once they do the voucher will be discovered and will then show in the collection. This happens all the time with this game.

I think reattaching some exclusivity to a few top tier cards is great. The last few years made getting every card way too easy. As for all the SDS is becoming EA talk, you realize SDS isn't a
non-profit, right? They should try to make $. They also owe that to their shareholders. Just my 2 cents tho. -

The collection is pathetically hard to get except for those buying stubs or that stay at home playing every single day, all day.

I felt like I did a lot of prep and was poetry confident based on the last two years of collection would be fine. SdS shot well past the 80 to 85 percent mark per series. I had a spreadsheet with a plan and contingencies and they shot that to hell. Unless you preped AND sitting on a million coins you can't complete the collection today. Even with all the coins you need to complete much of the program to get the other cards you need. And most of us will have to wait till Tuesday when they drop the Topps NoW. Not everyone should completebit day one but more than one person should be able to. I can't even begin to know how deflating it would be to see this collection and many don't have LS completed yet. I guess I don't mind it being so hard for Brett but maybe make the tiers within the collection. Maybe coin rewards for collecting so many before the voucher. Or maybe do what they did with Griffey last year and give us another player for half the Vouchers. Lastly, not only did they get us with the amount of cards for the collection but they also shot the market. Basically no one wins in this deal, even SDS loses because people now dislike the game even more.

I feel like this collection ask way too much from us this year or it may just be a cash grab. Yes, the card has good attributes and looks good but the best way to get it seems to be by spending money on stubs. In prior collections, you weren’t required to collect every voucher. You could miss one or two vouchers if you please, but not this year. You have to collect all 16. You have to collect every card in a set minus 1 or 2 cards, which is way too excessive in my opinion. Especially when they added expensive new cards into the game that go towards the collection and the cards are already expensive as is. Normally in years past things were reasonable, yes you would have to collect the majority but you could miss out on the 100k + cards if that wasn't in your stub/price range. In prior years people who wanted to play the game for fun could still get the collection completed if they wanted to. This year it feels like you have to buy stubs to get it done with everything the collection is requiring for you. The reward for putting time into this game doesn’t seem worth it. The games don’t even reward you with enough Stubbs when you play an online game (RS, Events, or BR). For completing a collection/voucher you only get 1000 stubs for locking in multiple cards that add up to or exceed 200k+ stubs. I like the card art and the attributes but I feel like this year it’s too much to collect. It’s like you have to collect every card in this game this year unlike years prior. Hopefully I’m not the only one who thinks or feels this way.
way too much
