Building my DD Team as an Offline NMS Player
-
For the past several years now, I have played Diamond Dynasty without spending real money on buying stubs to purchase players for my team, or competing against other players online. It has been a rewarding grind each time.
The player collecting aspect of this game will always be a draw to me. But this year I am finding it more difficult—cards needing to be earned in showdown is one contributor. I hate this so much!!! I would rather grind repeatable missions (innings pitched with Reds players, for example. Etc).
Usually I’ve also made stubs in the market by flipping cards, but it’s been hard to do so this year. The returns are minimal. All the live series cards have so little value that you can’t make a profit on them, unless you flip a new player right after a roster update. I can’t shake the feeling that it wasn’t always this way. What’s up with the market?

The market has always been like this at the beginning, I haven't seen the bronze and silvers get so low,the margins were always super tight,but LS has a lot more value this year and everybody seems to be pack farming to try and pull the good ones and flooding the market with the low cards.

I wouldn't look at the margins between the current buy and sell bids. Savvy flippers are putting in single bids close to one another to deter others from engaging. I would pick a handfull of cards, I choose silver 79 cards, and get to know the ebbs and flows. Tommy Edmons will swing from high 300s to low 900s. Gauge where people are stacking their bids and undercut them.
It seems tedious but I finished live collection Monday NMS and only really pulled one gate keeper.
