2 LS players to go
-
Yep, it’s crazy. Almost every diamond pulled is quick sell or close to it. They have found a loop hole to keep it legal, 2% pull rate, while skewing the odds to the bare minimum on anything worthwhile. It’s brilliant on one level and extremely scummy on another. I really think this year may be the breaking point for many long time players. Next year will be very telling.

Other than Ohtani and Judge the cards aren’t even that good. They are simply obstacles to get the collection cards we all actually want. Hard to justify spending over 200K stubs on a card I won’t even use because packs are so ridiculously awful.
To be fair, Ketel Marte has been insane for me. I pulled him and Soto early, thankfully. Ketel is so good, HE should be 500-600K!!
-
Yeah ketel has been solid for me too. I meant more on the mix of judge, Ohtani, Witt, Ramirez, tatis. Judge and Ohtani are good but not 600K good. Ramirez is solid but not worth over 200K. Witt shouldn’t be over 100K let alone 200K. Tatis shouldn’t be over 100K.
Spending over 100K for a card I’m barely or never going to use is a deal breaker for me. Especially when stubs are so hard to come by unless you exploit DQ on GOAT. The only players with stubs to burn this year are the whales and elites.
The average player is just out of luck up to this point.

@capardo_XBL how about an 88+ flash sale?
-
@LIONED-33_XBL 55K isn't a flash sale. It's a lottery ticket: you have a shot at 8 cards worth more than 55K, YOUR NOT GOING TO PULL THOSE....1:7. Might as well save your stubs up cause you'll just be angry you pulled mookie betts twice!
-
@LIONED-33_XBL ahhhh, didn’t see that. Explains why the four I need are down in price. Not close enough for ne to afford them though. Need one of them to get to around 100k!
-
@TripleH-4481_PSN others may disagree, but you continue to hit the ball out of the park in all threads you reply in! Keep going, bud!
-
Thanks. I’ve been around for a bit and use my eyes and my head coupled with some basic common sense. I don’t let the apologists try to gaslight and sway my opinion. Issues need to be called out to be addressed.
Continuing to glaze SDS on poor decisions only allows them to continue down that path of further denigrating this once great game. All I want is a solid baseball game that adds to my love of the sport and feels rewarding for the time and/or money I choose to invest.
Just walking away and refusing to speak up changes nothing. The only way to foster change is by calling out the bs when something isn’t adding up. Even if the white knights vehemently disagree it’s the right thing to do.
-
Just an FYI, industry estimates put The Show 25 at around $150-175M in sales already. I don’t think $4M in copies sold would cause any concern. Especially considering 25 sold 23% more copies at launch than 24.
-
@TripleH-4481_PSN disagree; the only way to bring change is to stop buying the game. Sadly, the biggest moaners are back year after year.
-
@ANF_GOLD99_PSN it was a joke. I dont buy packs, i only rip free ones
-
@samguenther1987_PSN Witt, Judge, Tatis here. I have about 300,000 stubs I'm trying to turn into 500,000 before I buy Tatis and Witt so I can keep the rest to build up a pile of stubs for Judge. Really hoping for some pack luck too but haven't pulled anything worth over like 3,700 in nearly a month.

Got Judge the last LS I needed in it. Best 55,000 stubs spent ever.
