What is the first 5 things you will do when the game drops?
-
Love this post. It’s usually @arvcpa_MLBTS who creates it.
- Do a quick tour of the interface to find everything.
- Look through all the collections and start making a plan
- Rip packs and cry because I get no LS diamonds. (In 2023, my luck was insanely good). There is no chance that will hold.
- Create my RTTS player and start working on my first pathway.
- Check out storylines, cry like a baby at the beautiful stories and complete the one for Josh Gibson.
I know two of these technically aren’t DD but they help advance DD.
-
Buy stubs, complete collection, ranked seasons

@Atomic_Duckii
Do you complete the collection day 1? If not, what is your goal. Are you no or limited money spent? After looking it over a bit, the Dodgers will be very pricey. I expect that collection reward to be an amazing one.

If there was ever a year to have a surprise Kaufax...

I was more just joking but if Barry Bonds, Alex Rodriguez, Tim Lincecum, or Manny Ramirez is one of the collection cards. I’m definitely getting collection done day one.
I’ll probably start with ripping free packs, Seeing what I can build with those packs, do storylines, maybe get started on ranked program, and a little bit of conquest/ta grind.
I’m money spent. I know it’s frowned upon but I love baseball and play the game year round. However due to the sets last year I stopped playing after set 3 pretty much.

Barry Bonds will never be in, but AROD and Manny (along with others) should be in the Hall of Fame. Baseball didn't want to put an asterisk next to a period so they crucified a group of players. Hopefully, one day they get in and MLB gets the rights by default.

We never thought Sosa or McGwire would be in the game either. Maybe one day Barry changes his mind or gets nagged by a family member to give his rights up to SDS so he could be in the game. One could dream.

Invest invest invest. And because I build custom stadiums for my DD teams...use the creator and see what we've got to work with there

@Sarge1387
Where do you focus your investments early in the game cycle and how do they change as time goes on? Just curious

Sosa & McGwire didn't opt out of MLBPA licensing during their playing careers. Barry did.
I'm not a "Never Say Never" guy (unless the topic is Pete Rose), but it's hard to see a scenario in which Barry finally says 'yes' and joins the Legend Roster.
-
@SaveFarris I actually think Rose gets in the game sooner than later. The world just views gambling differently now man and it’s a major part of all these sports games nowadays. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s playable within 5 years.
-
@fellspointguy The higher silvers, guys that had statistical anomalies for down seasons last year. Like I'd probably lean in to George Springer to have a bit of a bounce back if he starts as a high silver. Or golds like Nolan Arenado, Vladdy Jr who are too good to stay mid gold. Those kinds of guys.
-
- road to the show
- start or continue my franchise
I'm not much for diomond dynasty and yet I have a 99 overall team in 23.

Jazz Chisolm was an 85 Diamond all season - Don't think Vlad Jr is gonna smell gold this year.
-
Vlad's already
-
vlads gonna be a 94 ez
-
-Rip open preorders
-Regret pre-ordering after pulling 2 golds.
-Selling what I can.
-Create a Ballplayer
-do whatever starter Showdowns there are. -

He was Reggie Stocker in this game not Jon Dowd. That was his fake MVP Baseball player.
