Lack of Team Parity in Drops Continues
-
Over 70+ Pipeline cards featured at launch and in today’s drop.
Zero. Milwaukee. Brewers.
You can’t even do that without trying.I’m one step away from the done club - so sick of wasting my time with a tone deaf content team.
Anyone else in the same boat as me?

If it's any consolation 13 teams did not get a Pipeline Past card today, including some that have a fewer number of overall flashback and legend cards than the Brewers.

It's just easier to become a Dodgers fan.

There's no Giants cards either... even though we've had some of the best prospects of the last 15 years
-
@Dolenz_PSN not a consolation - further magnifies the problem
-
@theBlindRhino_NSW haha yeah / but cheering for them to win a WS seems very hollow

Giants do have at least 1 Pipeline card
83 Bryce EldridgeThe Brewers and The Rockies do hold the distinction of being the only two teams without a single Pipeline or Pipeline Past card.

You think that's bad? White Sox fans had to be reminded that Tim Anderson and Andrew Vaughn exist.

At this point, LSU has both better attendance and a bigger payroll than the White Sox.
It's REALLY hard to win "Worst Owner" in MLB when that guy from Oakland is still around, but Reinsdorf is really, really trying!

If we tried to win “worst owner,” we’d probably just blow the game in the 9th.

Welcome to Cleveland fan's world:
No Pipeline Past
No real Moonshot - 64 Cliff Lee
No Cornerstone (One Last Ride there - Kiner)
No Egg Hunt
No New Threads (understandable)
No Spring Breakout
One Spotlight - after completing the most expensive (non-Live) collection.For those not lucky/rich enough to pull Jose Ramirez and/or Spotlight Carlos Santana, this hasn't been ideal for Guardian fans.
-
Well I mean you could kinda count Manny Ramirez (kinda?)

@RShackleford_XBL [censored]. I feel you man.

It was the first big program to have a serious Phillies card since 84 Max Kepler, and it's one of the most reviled Phillies in the eyes of fans. Regardless of how you feel about that very specific thing, these big programs should have a MINIMUM of one card for each team. The White Sox, Nationals, and Pirates each get THREE cards in this program. a bunch of teams have two cards, and an even larger amount of teams get nothing. Moonshot had 40 cards, more than enough for each team to get a slugger. Egg Hunt had 28. You could've easily added a few more so every team gets repped (Instead a bunch of teams get two and the Yankees get three). New threads again, 28. Could've added a few more so every team gets repped, and I think Pipeline actually got every team so hooray!
And even with that these programs are still terrible because they're explicitly designed to NOT be earned with play, but to be bought in the marketplace. completing the Moonshot program, Diamond Quest, and Mini Season gets you just past Carlos Delgado. The rest have to be gotten in packs that are far from guaranteed AND bought in the marketplace. This game has reached EA Ultimate Team levels of "F the NMS crowd, open up your wallets" nonsense.

I think it was 2020 or 21 when I had a boatload of TA7 LS cards at cheap prices and he went diamond in the last update. Ahhhh... What happened?
