Finished Mantle last night!
-
For the last few weeks I have been working my way through the last handful of Mantle tickets I needed. I sold just about everything I had been hoarding all year and between that and the 1M from the Forever program I had about 3.5 M. The diamonds I needed were crazy expensive but I dove into the market and competed on bids with all the other players in the same situation. I reached a point where I needed 5 bronze Rookies and 3 diamond 2nd Half Heroes. All of the remaining diamonds I could buy were between 450,000 and 700,000 stubs and I only had about 1M left so I was a few hundred thousand short. I knew I had to play all the way to the end of Battle Royale to pull them from the 90 and 95 point packs. I completed that last night.
In case you were wondering Finest Jimmy Rollins is my new hero.
He hit the 15th home run I needed to complete that mission and those 10 points put me past 100. Thank you Jimmy!!!!!Now I can go back to the more relaxing offline games of Conquest and Mini Seasons.

Congratulations!

Congrats! I'm closing in too

Mini-Seasons aren't relaxing, lol. Taxing maybe. At least the A.I. cheating will drive one nuts!

I always "get finished".
-
I'm slowly getting there. I need one more player for the Veteran Collection and then the big 4 in the Takashi collection. I know I can get there if I keep flipping for coins. The BR Program is slow going for me. At this point, I'll pry have it done right before The Show 23 comes out....
I can't wait to start 23 and have a plan to get ahead of this next season. I've learned when to buy, stash, and build collections. Should be fun
-
Yeah, if I buy 23, I have learned so much over the course of this year about managing inventory and stubs as well as what to play to obtain rarer cards in a way that is achievable for me. I will not be making the same rookie mistakes and find myself in a struggle at the end of the season to complete all of the collections.
-
Flipping has gotten slower.
And cards cost more as there are less players.The last 10 cards I need in the Finest Collection are very expensive.
-
I’m 16 cards away. I’m playing RS to 250 innings to get 4 of them. I’ll then grind Moonshot to see how many wins I can get for those packs.

I did the same last year. But once I learned to flip cards, it was a game changer. Congrats on getting Mantle. He’s got an amazing swing. Honestly, I thought all of the big collections were solid this year. Especially McCutchen.

Mantle, McCutchen and Brett are unreal for me. Rollins is meh.

Mantle, Trout and Griffey are awesome. Brett is a monster for me. Cutch and Rollins not so much.

I just finished the forever program and that million stubs helped. I need 4 more players and have about 750k. If I can double that, I'll be done.
I'm also only 1000xp from with Kerry Wood from completing the Extreme program, which will make me 100% complete on all programs for the season
