Those people are gonna complain no matter what
Somebody is always going to complain.
We will see how it goes but the slow creep, I think, will engage me less unless the content to get them is really great I am one who starts moving on from the game towards the end of the season. In the past I was always one who did not enjoy that all the cards I wanted use came out as I was moving on
It will also be interesting to see how that affects things like collections. This is the first year I have completed the live series collection and one or two of the season ones Before sets and seasons that always seemed like an impossible goal for me during the power creep years.

So yes, on Day 1 of early access release I along with many others had 88 Pedro/Hank in 21 and then 88 Randy Johnson in 22.
18 - Ruth was the star. Best available at launch was a Bronze 68 from a program.
19 - Mays. He was the Collect All. Outside of that, best launch card was an 87 in a Moments program.That's fair just saying that SDS has proven in more recent years that they are willing to offer a free version of their main event Legend at launch.
Even with 24 not having that one signature big name, they had new guys like Beltre/Sexson/Johan in the Hyper series available for free through preorder choice packs.

I can't wait for the first BR program with a 79 overall Manny rookie card from 1994.
Fun fact: Manny finished 2nd in the ROY voting to... Bob Hamelin (??????).

Everyone should start with level 50 common cards!

That's what I'm here for.
Now I would like an Awards ROY legend card for Bob. Make it happen, SDS. I'll pony up the fee... Can't be THAT much, right?
Come to think of it, this could open up a whole new card series... "Footnote". Who beat out Manny for ROY? Footnote Series Bob.
Where did the term "Mendoza Line" come from? You guessed it.
I'm full of great ideas.

Great Idea!
2022 Jesus Tinoco (Gave up Judge #62)
2007 Ubaldo Jimenez (Gave up Bonds #762)
1974 Al Dowling (gave up Ruth #715)
1991 Jimmy Key (losing pitcher in Ryan's 7th No Hitter)
2004 Matt Bush (drafted #1 ahead of Verlander)
1991 Terry Pendleton (NL MVP over Bonds, Sandberg, Larkin)
1005 Marty Cordova (AL ROY over Pettite, Percival, Green, Durham, G Anderson) -
@SaveFarris_PSN 1981 Cy Young (Fernando Valenzuela over Tom Seaver). Seaver had one more win and five less losses than Fernando, and Tom's Cincinnati Reds had a better overall record than Fernando's Los Angeles Dodgers.

Or a 2003 ROTY card where instead of Hideki Matsui we get Angel Berroa.

There is a case to be made for Bonds who led the league in OBP and OPS, but Sandberg and Larkin tied for 17th place with only 2 Vote Points to Pendleton's 274.
Pendleton led the league in Hits and Batting average.
Howard Johnson led the league in HRs and RBIs that year and came in 5th.
