If 500k + stubs ain't enough for you, which between the main reward path and 2 br programs is a conservative estimate to say the least. I don't know what to tell you, stop wasting stubs on packs.
500k stubs won’t fill in set 2 up to 2 bosses. And that’s not counting buying other cards. Hell mantle is almost that much. And why estimate. Here is the breakdown of what you get for all of Kaiju, all of team affinity, all of ranked season and the whole xp path.
87 packs
> 39 k stubs
12 biah
1 stadium
Boss packs
Couple kaiju
Diamond duo choice
18 bronze silver packs
2 diamond duo packs
1 alter ego packDon’t have to estimate. Can just not be lazy and add it up. Once these bosses get down to 20-30k that is at best 300k. And that would probably take some luck.
That bolded line is the one that many of us are talking about, because everything else is somewhat dependent on pack luck. If you play through the programs slowly then the cards you do earn that you can sell are already at their low values.
Also, aren't the BR Program path rewards no sell this time around, meaning if you want to sell those cards you have to be able to reach the highest levels through your play?
RS is no sell, but BR season two is sellable. I am afraid that could change with season three with how things are going.
Thanks for the info. I knew people were complaining about one of them after the stream.

I hope they don’t make BR no sell. You have to pay to play it so you should be able to sell it in my opinion

I don’t understand what the OP is saying. DD is literally the only sports card game where you can field a team of all 97+ cards by just doing the programs. And sure, There are some 99’s you might not be able to get but you can certainly win without them. Unlike in MUT where you’ll grind for hours on solos to get one token for a card set that requires 20 tokens to get a 95 overall card…Nah, DD is by far the easiest & most rewarding of all the sports card games.

Rewards were great when there was a skill gap to them. After the XP system was added to programs and people boosted it became irrelevant and they didn’t bother fixing it. You used to be able to sell cards for 5-10x what you can now, now it’s mostly just min quick sell because 50,000 have completed it. The system is broken. Just don’t say it out loud on here if you 4 angry fanboys is going to get you emotional lol.

DD is literally the ONLY fantasy sports game where there is a literal dollar amount on the best team in the game you can charge it directly to you credit card and own it immediately.
Y’all brains are shrinking

I’m just slowly blocking them. You don’t lose anything from blocking them. There’s no substance there. They will wake up when it’s too late and be like wut happened. Seen it in many games now.

You would think that, but it wouldn’t surprise me. They just made the WS program harder, one season in.

It’s simple. Rewards are what you want them to be. If you don’t have the skill to get BR rewards , save your Stubbs and buy them , ranked rewards are guaranteed with time investment as well as events. Same goes for every other card. There is nothing you’re locked out of in this game. It’s all up to you and the time you invest
-
There’s no way anyone is genuinely claiming it’s hard to receive rewards, I’ve put no money into this game, managed to get Babe & Chipper.
I play BR, badly, and each time I’ve got to 100 points for the reward player. You certainly don’t need to be an elite player to get elite players this year

I just assume that "stubs are so easy to get" is code for "I spend hours flipping cards in the market". Stub rewards are paltry this year. Actually pack rewards are way down as well, excepting the USA conquest map which had more hidden rewards than previous years.
As far as content goes, my opinion is that the TA2 reward cards are almost all collection fodder and a sizeable step down from the TA1 Charisma cards. It is not at all motivating to grind through another slog for cards that won't replace those I've had for a month or more. Off the top of my head Muncy, Napoli, Eddie Murray, deGrom are fine cards but that's about it. Berti and Ahmed seem like trolling more than anything. (Side note - for a series based on nicknames, how do you pick CJ Cron (Big Fella...not even his nickname) over Chuck Nazty? Think things through ahead of time and maybe save Blackmon for the nickname series eh?).
I saw someone on reddit call this year's game Grind 97/Buy 99 and I can't really argue. All these 99s behind a paywall are obnoxious and very clearly show that SDS wants more microtransactions. Very EA-like.
I spend an hour max throughout the day flipping and never at my console. I have almost 4M stubs (paltry compared to many ppl), LS done, Set #1, done and almost Core #1 done. My pack luck had been [censored] as the only cards above 15K I've pulled were Judge x2 (sold one), mantle, and Topps Hadar (sold).
This ain't a brag post. Just making the point that it's totally possible without spending hours and hours.
