'Wild Bat Ozuna' can't touch Betts. -
How are we getting this card? Program? Single free pack? Paid pack?
-
@xElRojo44x huh?
-
I didn't think he'd get it, but congrats to him and those Royals fans!

You have to have done all 4 Season award drop programs and then collect the 4 players you get from that.
At least that is how I understand it.
-
@SuntLacrimae50 fair point. I just figured with the Ranked seasons cards for round two being in the mid-high 90s (can't recall the kirk rating but I know the two WS ones are 97) I just figured the lightning player would be closer to that.

we have to do all 4 season awards drop programs to get him!?!?
How tf am I ever gonna do that playing 3 hours a week? -
Rare SDS W this year

How tf am I ever gonna do that playing 3 hours a week?The programs are not that bad. The first one is kind of painful because you don't have cards yet. But once you have done one they get quicker as you can load your Lineup with the players, play a 9 inning rookie CPU game against a team with bad pitching in a hitter friendly park and things go fast.
That said, even as a casual player myself, if your time is that limited you have to be selective about what you try and complete because you can't do everything with limited time.

thank you I am about to finish the first and the third program

@K9_21owl
He has a habit of hitting Catchers in the head with his back swing. Will Smith checked him on that last year, and the conversation did not go too well. lol ...Just some friendly banter...Ozuna is a good hitter. -

Just look at the programs closely and make your lineup out smartly. Look at both Topps Missions and General Missions and use that to make out the lineup. That might mean slotting in 3 primary SS players in order to reach a mission goal with them. Choosing a pitcher for a team that it wants you to earn PXP for.
If you don't have the time to commit to brute forcing it then it pays to be as smart about it as possible.

All well and good, but when are we getting a card of his dad?!?
Gold 83 1990 Standout card would be more than warranted.

Kinda makes a 95 lightning player seem weak imo
-
@BobCarface The stat missions with specific positions can also be accomplished organically through playing once they're the last ones remaining.
-
His Chrisma card last year was a stud I'm all in on this card just in time for me to finish the BR program and move to RS
-
only to be outdone by the 94 Elly they just released in the buyable pack...i swear this company....

I'd rather have Elly than Witt.

It'll be interesting to see how their stats compare. A difference of one overall could be merely a few points off defense for a position of SS. Or their favorite stat to play with - vision.
-
I'm not complaining Witt got the 1st lightning card. But they could have increased his Vision and Clutch to help match the 95 rating. If you do the math, his hitting stats = an 83 rated card......
His fielding = an 81 card.
With 99 speed.
So that 95 rating is a fraud.
This card is realistically an 82 rates gold card.GG'S SDS! WAY TO WATER DOWN THE FK'N LIGHTNING CARDS!
