    So instead of shohei costing 150 golds, now he’s going to cost you 500.

    He's not gonna cost me anything but the time it takes to grind for stubs by playing games, completing programs and selling dupes. And im fine with that.

    He will take you 3 times as long to grind this year. You may not value your time, but you should. Time literally is what you trade for money in this world

    Took me 6 days, in the market you said is destroyed because of this.but I don't blame you, you don't know how the market works other than crippling it with hundreds of orders at a time, I'd explain more but you don't want to know the market, you just want to scream that you can no longer exploit it

    Nearly every card is sitting at Quick sell value in under 1 week. No demand for anything except shohei and a few others. That it literally what a dead economy means. There was nothing hyperbolic about my post.

    And it’s because if you aren’t using the card there’s no reason to buy it now. You can’t hold enough of them to make a reasonable profit when they get upgraded in overall, and it’s too cumbersome to make exchange packs.

    Dead. Economy. Live series is already quicksell series in less than a week.

    That is not good for investors, obviously, but it’s not good for anyone else either.

    One week in and live series is already Quicksell series. That’s a dead economy.

    In past years you could earn packs and rip them and get something in the market for your live series cards. But these restrictions mean the people who used to buy your cards aren’t there. so now you will be quick selling everything except a few cards all year.

    Your insults are dunning-krueger tier. You haven’t thought this through whatsoever. Just move along, this post isn’t intended for you.

    Nope. Just glad that people are posting so much about this. I hope it never stops. I don’t want to see this game turned into 2k where you have to drop $3500 for one card and can’t sell it when it’s no longer relevant. And even though because you are not an investor and think these changes don’t affect you and your game experience; they do. I’m actually advocating FOR you too. You just can’t see it.

    Good luck using 85’s when the money spenders have 98’s. /shrug

    But either way, wouldn’t you prefer if the live series cards you get in packs you earn by grinding still have some value going forward?

    No? You don’t care? You don’t like being rewarded for your time? Ok. The rest of us do.

    I’ve never flipped or invested and just played and open packs, I’m usually no money to limited money spent and I get everything done every year, it always seems daunting in march, but by July it will be fine.

    Exchange for profit is totally dead now because everything is selling near quick sell price, because you can’t hold inventory waiting for price increases; everything is being dumped on the market.

    Oh no!!! SDS is … keeping prices low!

    ITS THE MARKETPOCALYPSE!!!

    Good luck against the CPU? Really? If i do play online, its not until the break anyway. But good luck in finding a new strategy in getting those crutch 98s. I mean....clutch 98s.

    I think it’s extremely weird for people to take sds side on this. Literally anyone can flip or invest, and save you hundreds of dollars not having to buy stubs. There is also nothing stopping the people that keep claiming it’s a baseball game no reason to invest or play the market. If you don’t enjoy doing it then don’t do it. There was zero reason to make a 20 card limit other than them being greedy knowing that many people didn’t have to spend actually money on stubs.

    Which part of "WE DON'T BUY STUBS ANYWAY" do you not seem to understand? Most of the comments on these posts echo the same sentiments. No money spent...just grind...don't care about 20 card max.

    You guys are in here crying because you can't drive prices up and play your little stock market simulator while the rest of us are playing a baseball game because we actually love the game of baseball.

    @Easy_Duhz_It__PSN so why are you playing game mode with a market in the first place?

    Sounds like you should just play franchise.

    @xero4019_xbl You can’t discuss this on here. The same five guys come and belittle you, call you lazy, imply that you don’t play the game, etc. It is an exercise in futility. Just repeat the company line “the market is healthy” and move on man. It’s not worth dealing with th same five guys.

    So... people are upset that they no longer have access to a no-risk scheme that allows them to rake in tons of stubs for essentially doing nothing, while effectively making the cards they hoard more scarce and potentially increasing the cost of those cards for everyone else if there's demand for them. Because a factor of 20 is not enough.

    And they're calling the other side greedy.

    It's kind of a weird argument.

    Sounds like you shouldnt worry about my game and go cry in the corner because stock market simulator took away your favorite part of a BASEBALL game.
