New Cards on Thursday 5/23
-
Season Awards Program - They are teasing a new Season Awards Collection Reward being added as well.
Homestretch Pack 3
New(?) World series pack in the Ranked Program
-
I will probably play to get the Pedro Pagés card since it is actually an offline grindable Cardinal. Nice to see a Cardinal earnable in an offline program finally. Other than the three team affinity cards this is the first one added since Day 1. The other three Topps Now/Season Awards Cards were all put into packs.
-
Lol, on events it says Friday May 23rd…
-
No Conner Wong AGAIN.
-
That homestretch pack is loaded. Wish it was available to earn and I could play more than 2 weeks with the cards
-
I absolutely love when I just get to parallel 2-3 in a good 93 card just so they can reprint a better version of that card that will expire in 2 weeks.
Fuccin heII SDS. Good Lord.
-
Yes, go grind and buy packs for cards that expire in literally 2 weeks. Amazing content system SDS
-
I mean, anything ns gets me that much closer to CC, I guess.

RE: "World Series Pack"
No New Cards, they're just adding additional missions that make earning those cards easier/possible. It's why I stopped playing Ranked this year: why should I waste half the season playing if the points-earning missions don't go live until halfway through the season?
-
@SaveFarris yea, it does make playing the ranked Program kinda pointless. Play it for couple few days then your stuck there forever waiting. I don't like it either.

Would you prefer they stop giving us cards altogether so you can use the same lineup for 6 months and P5 all your mid cards?

So Shota and PCA already getting repeat cards in S1. I just don't get it or understand . If it was the ssame format as last year sure, but not this year. So 4 Cubs cards coming available to the masses in the last two to three weeks - 99 Arietta (once part two of WS program opens up), 99 Bryant (pack) 99 Shota (program) and 99 PCA (pack) and then taken away. Lovely.
-
@Easy_Duhz_It_ Yes if it means they improve the rest of the game. I don't care to grind for slightly better cards than what I already have.
Nothing about their content drops are impressive. I want a polished game with a non season based rank mode. Not hard to do but it hurts their profits to do that -
New 15 win Event Reward:
Free Moonshot Rookie Pitcher Pack:
-
@SaveFarris ah man, my least favorite type of event -moonshot . Cool they are giving you a pitcher i guess though lol. Hardpass on moonshot for me though
-
@Cubsfan217 Moonshot is pretty horrible. You can make the argument "oh but you just need to hit the ball like your opponent". If I wanted a HR derby I'd just go play HR derby.
-
@SaveFarris What is even the point of the common pitchers? Who would use them outside of moonshot?

Ooofff - at least they're Season 1 cards and can be used for collections. Weird for sure
-
helps you advance in the collection so not complaining but ... what about the last X tweet --
season awards drop at 15k stubs in shop that feature all the " common" players up through last pack
Are they learning from there mistakes ? Is this JUST an end of season thing ? Are we getting a pack drop for this week ?
