More Math. S1 Colkection

Why? Because I'm bored. And I know this will eventually change as more cards are offered and more rewards are offered.
But right now, if ny math is correct, there are the following amount of cards in the game.
104 market: these can only be bought or pulled from a pack.
62 earnable: Cards that can be earned and bought. RS, Event, and BR rewards.
64 programs: Earned from Other Programs.
102 TA: Earned from TA (includes the Choice Packs from packs thst were in The Stub Shop.
11 XP: Cards, minus the 3 99s, that you earn from rhe XP Path.
So that's a total of 333 S1 cards available now. But only 179 of them are 'grind' cards. (I'm not including the RS, Event, and BR cards thst you can earn).
Now this is the path in the S1 Collection and who you get when you collect thet amount.
30 Biggio
70 Franco
120 Aurilia
200 Leiter
230 Brock
250 C.C.
280, 300, 325So that means if you only locked in the cards you earned from Programs and were non-sellable; you would also have Biggio, Franco, and Aurilia. Add those 3 and you now have 182. So that means out of the 333 total cards; you would either gave to play onine for (60 cards) or buy those and another 106 cards off the market to get all 3 S1 cards. To just get 1; you would need to but, or earn online, at least 98 cards.
At an avg of, let's say, 5K a card. You would to spend at least 490K to get ONE S1 Collection reward.
Granted this will change when and if new content is added. But I honestly can't see anyone getting all 3, or even 2, S1 Collection reward cards without being spending stubs.
Now if some people cant get at least 2 of those 3, without spending stubs, that (along with the lack of XP) WILL DEFINITELY steer the casuals from this game next season.

Offline only. I need after the TA 3 program about 60 cards. I'm not getting any of the season collection bosses'.
-
I figured this [censored] out weeks ago and just accepted the fact that i wont be getting any of the collection bosses. I'll get Sabathia and thats about it.

Total 446 256 190 -
@X-FREEZE-OFF-X My hope is the program to end the season has a ton of cards but I know that’s unlikely I’ll probably get 1 but all 3 should be earnable without being forced to play events or BR, ranked isn’t hard but that’s only 2 cards per ranked season anyway

Total 446 256 190Ok. So even if you collected the no sell ones; you would still be short and would either have to play online, or buy those players, plus all the others thst can't only br bought from the market or from a pack.
-
nice numbers. you'd be great a making Stubbs on the market.
-
I'm not anywhere close to a boss pack and don't see it happening despite having collected many of the no sell cards
-
Games been out for two months and I’ve already lost interest in playing. The grind, collections, seasons have made the thought of turning on the game unappealing. SDS has show zero consideration for the consumer.
-
This year honestly sucks because I think that SDS has lost touch with the average consumer. Unless you have alot of stubs, money or time you won't get any of the favorite cards for your team. I'm nowhere near any good cards due to my normal everyday life responsibilities but that's okay because I'll switch out if this continues through next season and so forth.

There needs to be a balance. People that want to play multiple hours a day should absolutely have a big goal. I think it's fine for people with more limited time to not get all 3 pack cards. But they should at least be able to get 1 by now.
It's a fact that a NMS can get to 325 pretty easily, if they play a moderate amount of time and spend stubs wisely. It works fine for people like me, who got both their third collection and 3rd xp path yesterday. But it doesn't work for a majority. As I said, a balance is needed.
The [censored] flavoured icing on the cake is that the people like me with a fair deal of time to play feel the content cut most so in the end no one is happy, except maybe Tyler Whoa because of the easy troll material

Wait? How did you get enough stubs, and XP, to get to the 3rd XP Path 99 and 3rd S1 card?

Sold early diamonds (first few weeks) when they were overpriced, but that wasn't a lot. Sold Seager a week ago for 60k, but still have 60k anyway. So I wouldn't say it's pack luck.
But I did buy a few cheap Topps Now's from the early packs when they launched, have all spring break, Seoul, and Easter now that they are cheap. Have a lot of cheap pipeline but held back a little as I expect next program (season recap) to be pack heavy and tank most things down to quick sell if they aren't there already
Xp I've capped three times all year and have
even taken a week off -
