@Scott_LaRock101 I'll try my best but that Nation of Baseball conquest looks hard, also all the Team Affinity ones.
The USA map is super easy. I've been working it for the 6500 stubs, six golds, ten pack bundle, and pxp.

@dcmo3_PSN True, but he's there only diamond, right? And Mets I suppose because of DeGrom.
Nope. You got Freeman.

@samguenther1987 Thanks! Any advice for working the market?
Hey if you want, message me on Xbox. I would be happy to help. If you feel comfortable, maybe we could even jump in a party and I'll walk you through a few ways to make stubs in the market, conquest and whatever else you need help with. Best of luck

Message me on here and I'll give you some tips on Conquest and flipping.

Definitely recommend doing all of the T/A if you can. Lots of free packs can be had from there ( believe it’s like 90 t/a packs) plus all of the others you get. Showdown is a lot easier than it was last year imo so that’s the easiest way I’ve found to get T/A done.And as others have said conquest due to all of the hidden packs and stuff from there. Some of it is your pack luck but the rest is just time.

The best tip I can give for working the market is find a player or three that gives you good return on the investment and don't blab it all over the forum or YouTube.
The Brewers were great for this in 17 (IIRC). I made loads of stubs off that collection. -
@dcmo3_PSN How long did it take? Also any suggestions?

Wow, something wrong because I apparently posted that 4 times.
-
@dcmo3_PSN Oh yeah that's true, they do have Freeman.

@BigC1125_XBL @Tuke7-1_PSN Alright, thanks!

Why is the last card I need for the cubs , Brewers , and Indians not available to buy!! This is annoying

Collections are certainly something you can grind. I'm NMS and have been starting by buying players on teams without diamonds or with just one. Through playing at this point I have 12-20 players for every team from all the packs. Time you put in will just change how quick it gets done.
Yeah, I have been buying most teams with no diamonds or if I got lucky and pulled the only diamond through free packs. I pulled Degrom early and sold because I wanted to flip for more stubs.
I've completed 16 teams so far. Last year I was able to complete this way, but I've also learned that investing in legends and flashbacks can net you tons of stubs later because of the big fish that eventually is released. -
@FarikoArcher_PSN Who are they?
-
@elway7751_PSN Doing pretty good so far, good job!
-
I think you should collect all the BR cards first, events and World Series. Live series later during the year price go down and the others price skyrocket!!

@mubby_33_PSN Lots of moments is what I normally do. What should I do?
You want to maximize your XP. I don't feel like moments give you alot of return, especially if you have to keep replaying them over and over. I've been doing conquest and play cpu. Conquest rewards some nice free packs but be careful some of those maps are time consuming. Both conquest and play cpu will also help with innings for team affinity. Team Affinity is one thing I'm going to try to grind out earlier this year because the rewards on those last stages were great..
showdown would be another good one but I always get way too frustrated with them. Online would probably get you the most xp, but the games just take way to long for me, plus I suck online. -

Well, each game about 15 minutes and there are 30 teams. So that's 7.5 hours for just those games. The drudgery that is simulation, will take maybe another 1-1.5 hours. Added together leaves you 8.5 - 9 hours to complete, and that's just playing with no stops (which isn't me).
You'll want to head west taking out Colorado, and then the rest of the west. Get to Colorado's base without losing any troops, if you do just restart, then play them on AS. Keep moving towards Oakland (remember, every 3 territories gives you an additional troop). Steal on AS against Oakland, reinforce, and move and play Oakland again on AS. Stop attacking after that game (at most that base is surrounded by only 2, and they won't attack at a 2-1). Steal against Seattle on AS, reinforce on the most optimal hex (closest path of least resistance) to launch an attack against Seattle, move your remaining troops from Oakland to the reinforced hex, and move and attack Seattle on AS. Stop attack. After this start to fill up open hexes, keeping an eye on your bases to ensure they aren't outnumbered by more than 1-2. You don't always have to attack, instead just reinforcing on same hex until you have a large number, which can't exceed 99. The rest of the games I play on rookie, in order to maximize pxp.
A replay on this map gives you 6500 stubs, six golds with a min value of 6000, and a 10 pack bundle.
