Possible solution for Wagner / Chipper situation in MLB 21?
-
This isn’t technically the first year with waiting lists on cards. In 17 Alomar(WS reward, Harper(BR) and Bagwell(Yes Jeff Bagwell) were all at the then 500k stub cap

I am happy to see the TA3 and I hope TA4 cards are on the market. Fan favorites of players should at least be obtain able even if a lesser level like in Chipper sense

I would think the better way to solve the problem is by finding a way to incentivize more BR play.
I know in years past, they've upped the reward structure mid-year. And they may still do that year this year.

To tell you the truth I wish Griffey, Chipper and Pujols are available in May next year. It would stop a lot of the complaining about content if you ask me. Alot of the “this card won’t make my bench” or “who asked for this card” or “this card is an L” crowd want those 3 cards in their lineup and refuse to use anyone else

Op, I was thinking of this earlier. If they had the option to buy any card from the store that could help.
If you want chip...2 mil stubs for an unsellable card. The stubs go into the abyss and you get the desired card. Dont have to wait months maybe rhe whole year to get someone you like
-
I say that you take off all stubs caps!
Really though, let people pay more than a mil if they want, and have more than 5 mil if they want
Maybe??? -
Diamonds should have no cap, imagine Christie's having a $1 million cap on a T206 Honus, or a Trout Superfractor, ridiculous...Free the market!

Not a terrible idea but that would kill the point of going flawless. I think they would have to say you can earn and sell for a max 1m or you could outright buy for at least double.
I disagree with the claim that it would kill the point of going flawless. You’d be playing it for the big stub payout of 900k after taxes or to earn the reward without having to pay 1 mil. However, I would be happy with having an option to outright buy a card for double the price, so buy Chipper for 2mil. That would indeed make the card a bit more exclusive. I just think the whole waiting in line thing for a card is kinda lame. If we have the stubs for it and we are willing to spend, we shouldn’t have to wait until the end of the game’s lifecycle for it.

Ah yes, forgot about those. I didn’t pay as much attention to them then bc I didn’t even have enough stubs to complete the LS collections lol. I remember them now that you mention it.

They need more packs with new cards to take stubs out of the market. There’s no headliners anymore, flash sale packs are the same cards we’ve seen for months now. Right now there’s not much to spend on, they should have made RiB a couple different sets of packs with a rare round Chipper and other highly sought after cards.
