Anyone else have an obsession with collecting every card?
-
I feel this need to have every card, LS and non-LS. I dunno why, since I don't even like to use most of them....And I don't need a lot of them for the big collections. I already have Brett and I am still buying Springer, Longoria, etc. It's some OCD or compulsion or something from when I was a kid collecting real cards.
I hate that there are cards I can't get, like the silver Melancon, and Realmuto
-
That's a lot of flipping in order to own all cards. I go for all LS and all Reds cards, but I won't flip cards, I only sell duplicates i get in free packs.
-
Put your orders in for Melancon and Realmuto. They will fill eventually. Or play BR. You get two choices of the old bronze/silver/golds in each pack

I didn't realize that but I will play BR to get those cards, thanks!

Yup, working on the LS collection now that i have Betts, Pujols, Wilson, Jackson and Castellanos. I'll continue to work on the 10k/15k cards when I'm done collecting Tatis Jr and DeGrom. I have all the gold/silver and bronze cards

I think those cards are part of the silver legends and flashback packs that you get from Mini season missions. Just 50 strike outs with silver pitchers on veteran.

Yeah Not every one of those are in there though. Only the 1st 2 seasons of the BR cards

That's also good to know, I just recently started a Mini Seasons run. I'll check it out. Would be awesome to have every single card in the game. I'd be ecstatic. As of this morning I am literally 3 cards away from doing that. The other card I don't have is FA Trevor Bauer, but I can just buy him easy enough.

You know Brett isn’t the final collection, right?
You’re just preparing for the next one.

Yeah, the MS rewards are the same 6 bronze, silver, and gold every time. But I do think those two specific cards are part of the silver pack.

Hey OP, fellow collector here. For some reason I only care about the legends and flashbacks. I finished the LS but now I have no interest in collecting the random commons that are added. Once the LS is done, it is dead to me haha. Same with equipment, perks, unlockables etc. Once I complete those to lock them in, I'm done.
But...the legends and flashbacks are a different story. I must have them all. Last year I started late and bacause of that, I could never get Alomar. 1 card short. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!
Anyway, you can put a buy order in and it'll get filled fairly quickly for the bronzes and Silvers. Just keep checking back. If you stay on top of it, you will be able to collect every card.
Except FOR ALOMAR!!!!!!

Not even close to an obsession. I learned long ago playing this game that I just don't have the motivation to complete collections.
Last year I mainly tried for all the Cardinals, all the Topps Now and POTM cards and I believe all of the player program cards.
This year even the POTM cards are a possibility to not be collected.
-
I mean kinda sorta. My goal is to no money spent collect the live series and do all the collections. So I don't really care about having all the cards in that sense, but I need most of them.
-
Not really. Just have fun with what I got.
Last year I cared but burnt out by the end.
Just taking it as it comes this year.
-
Maybe not every card but I have to have all collections full even the stupid ones like stadium sounds and celebrations.
-
I need all the flashbacks and legends if I’m going to P1 them all.
279 P1ed
103 acquired but not P1ed
109 released but not acquired (as of 6/20) -

You're ALWAYS preparing for the next one.
Which makes the idea of doing this next year for the third year in a row...not appealing.

That's always my goal too. This year I've lucked out with 3 Trouts, 5 Acunas, and lots others. LS done real early, and those extra Trouts allowed me to stock up on pretty much everything else. I don't know if I'd still be playing this game if my pulls weren't what they were -- I'm an RPG guy first, so tasks and collections.

Oh I know that. have played this game long enough to know there are other "big collections" coming. That's also why I hoard every card.
