Maybe I'm the only one, but honestly I get excited when I see 2 golds in a pack. I don't care if they don't get me diamonds. This year I don't rely on them. I'm not a person who actually ever pulls diamonds or gatekeepers I just grind stubs I sell everything as I possibly can, and i'm about ninety five percent done with the world baseball classic program and i'm sitting now on 232k stubs.

Game is too buggy, too laggy, investments capped busy father/husband, are yall telling me to move on and spend more time with my family instead of a buggy laggy game aimed at me spending money? Noted.

Just saw a guy put in 32 orders, i think they reversed it.

@LIONED-33_XBL you are in the 2% that actually get good pulls. I've opened over 100 packs and have pulled 1 diamond (not 88), for us mortals, we gotta flip.

@gypsea99_PSN actually, i know alot of people who prefer flipping/offline grinding over say Ranked. For them, that's why they buy the game. I like a mix of both. Packs suck, so you have to flip. Take away flip, force folks to buy packs, packs suck, they flip the deuces and play a different game. SDS does what then?

We do this every year....but i feel like this year, i want to attack live series early..

Day 1 - I want Ohtani.. When the servers cut on, he will simply not be that cheap again until december. I'm buying him outright and moving on with my life......

2. Grinding team affinity for easy packs.
3. Selling everything that's not 88+..
4. Grinding conquest for packs.

What's your plan?

@GoozeFn_PSN I am, Night 1 only. This is my favorite game for a long time now, the wife knows 'my favorite card night one is the credit card'. Probably $150-$200.

🧠 Honest recommendation (for MLB The Show players)

If your main game is The Show, rank these for me.
1️⃣ DualSense Edge – best balance
2️⃣ SCUF Reflex Pro – most competitive paddles
3️⃣ Razer Wolverine V2 Pro – fastest response
4️⃣ Victrix BFG – most customizable

@DanH35_XBL If you want to complete the collection, the cheapest way is always to buy the most expensive cards first.

So that's my focus early release, do the tutorial and head straight to the Market. I want 2 to 3 gatekeepers night one. I'm not a pack luck guy, been playing forever and I NEVER PULL GATEKEEPERS, NOT EVEN ONCE. So i'm wasting my stubs on packs, I'm attacking Gatekeepers night one.

I think it's Bobby Witt's time.

Folks mash with Mike Trout. I hate playing with Mike Trout. I can't mash with him. Mickey Mantle is another one, i can't hit at all with him.

@xRatedGProdigyx_PSN yea i loved this.
I played a bunch with all these cards in like April.
All i had to do is collect and they became 99s. Love it!

Leroy Matlock is a cheat code.
99 break on all his pitches.
99 control of all his pitches.

Hes a 99 Glavine with a better pitch mix.
7 innings of perfect ball in the weekend classic

Im a world series player in silver 1. They could be all like me: played a ton early, made WS 3 times, stopped playing the game for 2 months, just back in during the playoffs with far less interest

How many players in history have:

1. 99 break on all pitches
2. 99 control on all pitches.

With the 99 buck leonard boost, matlocks h/9 up to 115
Just through 6 innings of a perfect game with him.

What other in history boost these attributes on 5 pitches???

@TheBigPapa55_PSN I love WC. The game are sweaties and i love the rewards. Sorry i've waited years for weekend league and after the first week nonsense, it's gotten way better.

It's weird, but there are players that i dont have to think about there swing, i can go fastball in and i know if they throw a circle change down and away, not only will i get there, but it's going to be hit really hard. It's definitely not with everyone, i just trust that with quirks and his leg kick, the way i play it just works for the swings:

RH: Betts, Vlad JR, Vlad SR, Rap Dixon(NL)
LH: Jolt Max Muncy, Harper, Posada, Jared Duran, Buck Leonard(NL)

These are my 'dont worry about me' swings. I sit heavy in and i know the hand eye will do the rest on the soft stuff away.

@JenkinMeyer_PSN

Live Series Mookie 350 ab's 48 hr's 1K Ops
Jolt Max Muncy P5 Still rakes
92 Posada's swing is elite
94 Jared Duran has a great swing.
88 Satandar, i can't take him out of my lineup, the swing is just butter.

@LIONED-33_XBL
thank you. Before grinding a showdown, grind custom practice and turn the sliders up. Record yourself playing, get your timing right, come up with strategies based on your feel for certain pitches, where your PCI needs to be, so what works best for you. Ambush when you can to get a little advantage. Practice makes you better in almost everything in life.
