@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN what exactly is your definition of big guns? All of them? Some of them?
Regardless the answer is start at the top and work down.

@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN yeah sorry I meant with the roster update. My brain is fried

Anyone that's 50K or higher.

Besides some early pack luck (Trout, Yordan, Seager) that made the AL West easy to finish, I’ve been focusing on NL and bought Ohtani, Marte, Tatis, Skenes and Tucker. I had to sell lucky pulls like JRam to get there but now I’m done with NL West and Central.
Still need all the diamonds in NL East and the big guns in the AL.
-
@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN I’ve been chipping away at it. but saving up for the big boys isn’t a bad strategy either. Also if I pull a top diamond on a team, I try to finish that whole team too.
-
Thankfully got Skenes for 25k and Tucker for 19k during the flash sale (did it to finally get that awesome Ted Simmons card - its the only division I have finshed yet....trying to be patient this year.). Both of there overalls should go up significantly next Friday, so expecting that their price should rise short term unless there is another flash sale.

Yeah. I packed Elly when he was 40-50K; so I locked him in for the Reds and bought the rest.

I would buy live series cards you could use on your team first... Soto, trout, Yordan, Witt, jram

Left field is already manned with Pipeline Dominguez. Right Field is manned with Jose Bautista.
DH is Jolt Schwarber.
I could upgrade third from New Threads Bregman to J-Ram and maybe shortstop with Witt over Elly.

That Domingez card is so good, one of my favorites so far this year

As someone who’s no money spent with Beltran, and will be completing Rolen Tomorrow, I would save your stubs. The way I did it is I broke it down into AL and NL. Any player I pulled worth more than quicksell, I sold. Once I got enough for the AL, I bought all the players for it. I did the same with the NL.
-
Down to 8 players left for me now
JRam
Witt Jr
Soto
Lindor
Marte
Betts
Ohtani
Tatis -

I have about 90 K in stubs. Still need the 'Big Guns' and some 'Pistols' like Skenes and Tucker.
Should I keep saving until I can afford one of the 'Big Guns'?
Or should I start chipping away at aome of the Golds, and lower that I need?
That way, all I'll need is Diamonds.
My suggestion would be:
- You are pretty low on stubs, so buy those who help your team the most. For example. I could afford the NL West, so I went for this first since the rewards (Headley, Valenzuela) made my team that much better. After that, I needed a Catcher so I went for the NL Central.
- If you do not need/want any of them, save the stubs … the big boys will come down in summer
-
Big reminder for everybody who forgot that there is one collection for the live series collection for each team that you can collect. That gives you 20K TA-XP … I only put in my first, so I just collected the other 28 I had … that gave me 31 standard and 11 headliner-packs
-
I think this is the downfall of sets and seasons, the live series cards are holding there value more. Also we lost all the last gen players and the packs they would put into the market as well. The flipping margins are down, and also the game is now into the cycle where everything non gatekeeper is around quick sell value, while the gatekeepers keep going up. It’s going to be tougher, but it used be this way.
-
I kept getting the ones I could afford, working my way up from cheapest to most expensive. I reached Ketel Marte last night. So I have all the most expensive ones left to get: Ohtani, Judge, Witt, and Trout. Which is only about a million stubs. My logic was I wanted to move forward in the Team Affinity program and get as many Jolt cards was I could get. I figure it shouldn't really matter if you buy cards you have a better chance of getting, since you can always sell them to build up your stubs. But unless my pack luck changes (LOL), it's going to take a while still to complete the set.
-
Getting closer, just got Tatis because I think his price is going to go up. Only 7 left and all of then will be over 90 except Ketel Marte.
