How much will the delayed release impact investing
-
I do not typically invest in cards, but I have to believe that the late release is going to massively impact investing this year. Presuming that SDS will adjust the rosters for the first 2+ weeks of the season at release and with everyone already seeing a couple weeks of stats, I believe a lot of the early season player increases will be priced in at release. While there may be an opportunity to bet on someone off to a slow start, the huge gains that have been made early in past games through investments done prior to season start simply won't exist. It will be interesting to see the market impact of this.

I am more curious about market impact with all those XBOX users on the market.

I'm also curious to see if they go back to the pre-2020 method for assigning LS ratings. You could tell they were just having fun last year, so a lot of dudes got up around 90+ and it seems like everyone eventually became a diamond or gold. I kinda like that in a way. LS Trout, Betts, Bauer, etc. should all be in the mid-to-upper 90s if they're going to continue with the super inflated legend ratings. It is silly to have a common player go on a tear and get a juiced TN or a Hall-of-Very-Good legend get a 99 when LS Trout is essentially capped at 95 or 96 or whatever.

I’m not sure the impact will be very big. Sure, they add stubs, but they will also be adding cards (packs/rewards) in a manner proportional to their sample size in the game. Where it could matter is if they are truly new to the series, they may be more likely to open packs and less likely to say go 12-0.

Doubt it. Probably just goes back to what we saw in 19.

It's possible that the top tier BR cards and such become even harder to obtain through the market. By expanding the player base you are also expanding the potential number of whales playing the game, or those who play the market to stockpile large amounts of stubs. There won't be an proportionate increase in 12-0 BR cards hitting the market to compensate so they will become even rarer.

True I think cards will be more expensive this year . with way more people playing now going to mean that much more Stubs in circulation. Really can’t wait for the DD portion of the live stream in a couple weeks to learn more , see if stubs will be easy to farm up like last year .

It will be interesting to see if they change the br reward system after this year showed how broke it is. Relying on a handful of br goons to create supply in a bunch of sought after 99s late in the cycle isn’t really good for the game/lineup diversity.
