Ahh Yes, the Best Card in the Content Drop is Behind a Chase Pack….Again

Should we be surprised? The new 93 Willi Castro is your new Chase Pack player. And although he’s a 93 compared to the 92s that we’re shown, he’s MILES ahead of any other free-to-earn card shown today
Disappointed forsure. This is the new direction SDS took last year and they’ve obviously doubled down again this year
-
Just don't fall for the trap and spend any money to get the Chase cards. The good news is they are not necessary to be competitive or to enjoy the game.
-
@Pergo_MLBTS you’re right. I never spend stubs on packs. And I’ll never buy an overinflated Chase card
The principle in my OP is that SDS is turning to a model where the superior cards in content drops are in packs. That’s the antithesis of what made them stand out from other companies

Pretty sure Beltran and Rolen aren’t in packs.
-
Beltran is literally only available via packs because that’s where you get every single card necessary to get him.
-
There’s always unattainable cards; used to be BR or RS, now these are in MP path (easier and cheaper), now some are in packs
️Remember the 1M sale orders for WS cards?
-
Exactly, there are always going to be cards that you probably can't obtain without spending some money. I don't see much use in getting too worked up about it. Just don't fall for it, because you don't need them anyway. Let the whales continue to spend their money to subsidize the game for the rest of us.

Has anyone even pulled a chase pack within a pack this year? I have not and I have pulled a lot of packs. So if you cant pull a chase pack outside of buying a bundle. And then the chase pack does not guarantee the chase card, supply is going to be non existent.

Never insinuated they were. Please stop defending this egregious shift by SDS

Agree. There should be cards that are hard to obtain. Whether it take skill, stubs, or collecting tons of other cards, I’m totally fine with having top cards be harder to obtain
What I’m not fine with, is releasing obviously nerfed cards that can be obtained for free, while simultaneously placing better cards within a pack
They continue to nerf cards by inflating meaningless attributes like durability, and base running aggressiveness so that they can make that card “mediocre” in an area. Cbrev literally hinted at this today on stream. He said there’s “give and take” when creating the attributes
And then today, they release Willi in a chase pack where his durability, stealing and baserunning aggressiveness is all low so that they could stack contact, power, vision and clutch. And they place tht card in a pack
Disappointing

I’m 2 cards away from all the 99s. Sandberg and Ohtani. Really only 1. lol I get ohtani I get Chase H completing 2nd half hero’s.

Yes, I think I have pulled at least 3, maybe 4.
-
@doobiebross66-72_PSN Yeah I watched a good youtube on this the other day. Basically durability means nothing DD but helps inflate the overall of the card. Same in previous years with defense and reaction, at least they changed that so those stats matter in game. In other words overall means nothing just look at attributes.
-
I have but it was early in the year and the card was a gold

I didn’t insinuate. I specifically refuted your claim that “the best cards are in packs”.
-
So the best cards in the game are hard to obtain? Hmmm weird
-
The best card in the game is Fernando Valenzuela.

Way to twist a message. I literally said “the best card in the content drop” not “best cards in the game”
Huge difference, and you know that, but whatever fits your narrative

Being “hard to obtain” and “obtainable only via pack or stubs/currency” are two vastly different things
