20 Card Max
-
I know I'm in the minority but I actually appreciate the limit. I don't flip a ton because there's usually a million orders, but with the limit the buy now and sell now aren't all clogged up and I can get a decent price on many players to flip. Even if it's only 20 at least I can be part of it.

@Finn_Scotus_MLBTS I liked flipping more last year personally. I’ve seen people get restricted for flipping this year

During a short push when they were making a push to weed out bots. But you know this and are just being disingenuous.

So, yeah. This is playing out exactly as expected.
Today's RU intentionally didn't boost the values of obvious candidates for price increases.
SDS wants players to invest Stubs in cards that are perceived to go up in value. Then, they drop some of those prices, thereby siphoning Stubs from players. This behavior encourages people to buy more Stubs.
Some of us tried to warn you, but you naively defended the company for a transparently villainous move. It will keep happening, too.
Shohei Ohtani currently costs 834k Stubs or $557. As a reminder, keeping the prices of Judge (580k Stubs) and Ohtani in check was the justification espoused for the 20-card investment limit.
Spoiler: SDS lied. They want more of your money. Period. Full stop.

This happens every year, every time there is a roster update. The prices on those guys go up, people freak out, and then in a week or so the prices come back down close to where they were.

You're missing the point, they said it's for marketplace health. What's healthy about one card being worth 800k stubs?

@Gone-Viral_XBL I haven’t seen one person that defended sds about this but go off

While I don't doubt that really, I would still want to look at a few of those players on a case by case basis because too often players just look at stats like ERA which doesn't count for anything or they look at batting average overall or HR total without looking at the Lefty Righty splits that the attributes are based on.
Again, we all know that they do what they do selectively. We don't need to look beyond the 90 plus overall players that they ignored rather than downgrade today.

@ApolloZ_99_MLBTS you must have missed early release weekend around here.
IF SDS wanted to fix the market with the 20 card cap, they should have kept Judge and Ohtani capped as well. The fact that they let those two cards, with a .008 drop rate, go uncapped, while also capping the most consistent way to earn stubs in quantity shows you what they truly wanted. Not a healthy market for the consumer, a healthy market for the company.
They, SDS, have also sent employees as moles into investment discords to keep tabs on the prevailing advice. So when we only see 3 diamonds this update it shouldn’t surprise anyone.
