Gotta call BS.

Yeah I pulled him twice it’s ridiculous lol
Well yea it is easy when you pull the best card in the game twice. 99.99999999% of the nms people are not going to and the reality is they will need at least until June without doing the things I mentioned.
I would be done if I pulled Ohtani twice but that is a pipe dream.
-
@DemIsE4_XBL yeah it’s ridiculous I got stupidly lucky I also used to pull trout pretty early into games too when he was the guy. Idk my pack luck is just rly good Ik a lot of people will try and feed u bs but I’m just telling the story no bs here.

When none of those things happen, nms is extremely tedious and it feels like you are never going to complete the collection. It feels like that scene in Die Hard when they are waiting for a miracle to open the last safe. I would need that miracle to finish collection by June. Do people have any idea how long it takes to get the 800k (or whatever) for Ohtani without spending money, flipping or getting extremely lucky in pack pulls? It is a LONG time.
This is actually the first year I am making a huge attempt to get the collection done earlier and the expense of other collections. Not really sure why since the rewards are 2 RH batters and I usually don't hit well with RH batters not named Trout and Turner. I think I just wanted to see how fast I could get the reward. I usually don't get it until like August.

@DemIsE4_XBL me too I usally don’t gun for ls collection off rip. last year it felt tedious for me i usually just buy cards I enjoy and play a bunch of ranked but decided this is the year I go for it as quick as possible. Before my work load picks up again and am making great progress hope to have it finished soon but still further away then I think. For gate keepers which I consider high diamonds I need. J-ram
Witt
Raleigh
And not classified as high diamonds but still expensive is
Yordan
Seager
Buxton
Hoping to finish it soon as possible tho -
Yeah I don’t buy it (no pun intended) from those guys. I’m NMS and I play a ton 60/40 offline to online…and I’ve still got the gatekeepers to go. I’ve only earned maybe 50,000 stubs total? I’ve lucked out with a couple gatekeepers (Soto, Chapman) from packs but I still have the big boys to go.
I know @aaronjw76_mlbts does it legit because he’s helped me out with flipping strategies in the past…but most of the people claiming they did it NMS within two weeks are absolute liars.
-
@Sarge1387_PSN ig I’m just one of the nms guys who got lucky u care to share those flipping tips so I can get this done quick ? With how close I am hoping to finish by end of month
-
cool, dont believe me, i dont care. All i'm saying is this post is not accurate. It's strait fear mongoring, "Oh god, SDS makes it almost impossible to be NMS." I'm saying it's not. Again, believe what you want. I'll have Tulo by Sunday or Monday. The OP, and others will still be on these forums complaining

-
@LIONED-33_XBL man how?
I get I’m close but my pack luck has been other worldly -
@Onix_Savage22_PSN Some just can't handle the truth. It ruins their narrative.
-
@LIONED-33_XBL no I believe u im just asking for ur method my pack luck has just been rly good. i dont rly have a attack plan at the rest of the collection tho what would u recommend?

Having collections done and having a competitive online team are 2 completely different things. It is easy to have a competitive online team. Extremely difficult to get collections done without:
flipping
spending money
getting extremely lucky pack pulls
being a 10 win br person which makes you elite (then we can talk about cheating which is out of hand)I would actually say impossible to have collections done without those. Not really sure how you can argue that point seeing what I have done, sold pretty much everything and still at least 1.5 million short.
-
@Onix_Savage22_PSN i literally sell everything. everything, minus diamonds. I play mini seasons, to grind out TA. When I get all the diamonds for a team, i'll buy the rest of the team. By then its only 2k to complete, minus a couple. My first Division to complete was the AL East, Judge being a big card, but i wanted that Pedroia, so i saved up for Judge, slowly started picking off cards. I got lucky with pulls, Pulled, Acuna 2x, Lindor 3x, and Skenes. I bought all the AL high diamonds, to complete the Felix, by then i've pulled most of the low end diamonds in the NL. I literally bought Soto last night. I'll continue to sell everything i pull til i'm done with Ohtani. Made the rest of collecting not hard. Also, dont make the mistake of quick selling those Gold/Silver uniforms. those are 200 stubs a piece.
-
@DemIsE4_XBL Weather you can or you can't you're right. again its not hard.
-
@Onix_Savage22_PSN sorry wasn't talking about you.
-
@LIONED-33_XBL fair do u literally play mini seasons like 24/7 and is it just rinse and repeat wbc one? Also Felix worth it? I feel like he will get blown up in this game just like every other pitcher but at same time he’s so far ahead of everybody else he may not.

You literally just said "I got lucky with pack pulls." Just wow. Society is in trouble.

@rageincage007_XBL
Yes, the last couple of years I was able to complete Live Series sometime in mid may. I played almost 2-3 hrs a night (most nights) and I flipped during the day.I did not complete Team Affinity either year. I did complete far enough to get Jolt cards.
I am at work right now losing ground compared to last year because I am still restricted.
-
@DemIsE4_XBL i agree, people like yourself, who feel they can't do something, so instead of doing something about it they complain. Have a great day. I truly hope you get LS collection completed before July.

@Tuke7-1_PSN some guy saw my team yesterday and after Pujols hit a walk off he messages me and just says “how much”. I was like nothing im basically nms and for mlb atleast I am every year. And he goes yeah right, im like man idk what else to tell u i got ridiculously lucky pulls this year. I am still al west and central away from tulo but only money I spent was like the one time offer on PlayStation where u pay like 3.99 for 8k stubs cause it’s a good deal. but besides that ive pulled 2 shohei’s 2 skenes a lindor a Marte and he was so hard to believe me for some reason he bickerd back and forth for like15 mins. I just was like dude idk what else to tell u i got lucky it doesn’t mean i spent money.

Some people do get extremely lucky at times, and if you did, that is awesome for you. I am certain there is a very small percentage of those who are allegedly NMS, who have completed the collection or are very close to completing it w/o spending money because of a hot streak.
I have watched my notifications of friends on a hot streak where it was like every 3rd notification was a diamond pull.
I work full time as well, but occasionally have the time to play at work in our lounge area, but I just haven't been lucky with any good pulls thus far. I have 14 cards remaining and without pulling any, it will run around 2.3M stubs. Lots of grinding ahead of me.
