    I would play BR but I shouldn't have to pay my stubs for the privilege of getting waxed. 1500 is WAY too steep.

    My run ended at 9-2 . Got to 56 points . Sold my win rewards for about 4k stubs . Collected program cards towards season collection, I'm 3 away from arenado.
    I ran into a world series player at the end . Lol.

    It’s not often discussed, but there seems a reason why BR has a fee. Free online modes such as Ranked and Events have frequent players quitting under any circumstances they choose, without consequence.

    Yes, some certainly do in BR—and the most prolific are dashboarders there, who rage quit (of course). That said, the 1500 cost is at least somewhat tied into holding players into a game, because they are investing stubs to play a mode—that for most of us—is completed based upon stat goals set each BR season.

    No, I don’t love the 1500 stub fee. Think, if they’re charging, maybe 500 is more appropriate, in creating an “investment” without hurting a player choosing to play. Regardless, I’ve made a mental note for myself to track what goes in—stub-wise to play BR—versus what you get out in rewards, and it seems that very most often I’ve come out at least even to varying degrees ahead upon completing that program. Also, mysteriously (though really not), regular The Show packs present more diamonds when earned in that mode—along with the 13 cards gained by playing, and going towards collection numbers.

    So don’t love the fee, like most of you—but get why they do it… to at least use that in hoping people don’t quit and walk away from the 1500 stub investment.

    BR and Events are a no go for me. No fun playing against guys that have .550 averages for every P5 99 overall card.

    If there was no fee players would just keep drafting until they had a beast team with 4 supercharged cards and the best bullpen. A pack costs a 1,500 and the fee is 1,500 and you get a pack no matter what. I find the fee reasonable.

    100% … that is the best part of it. People have to think … Do I quit now, do I redraft, do I forfeit to get another chance. The fee is really low but it lead to a lot of „no‘s“, when I asked myself those questions … If you hadn‘t a fee, you would face the same as events, where people have quick exit-triggers 🙂

    One other note: 1500 is really nothing. Even if you only win 1-3/4 the rewards are much higher than the fee. If you do not win 1/4 then maybe you should stick to events
