Lightning reward for collecting Didi, Correa, Bellinger, Paxton, Tatis Jr. & JRamirez. Collections < Legends & Flashbacks < Lightning Collection

I bought a lot of packs hopefully to exchange for TA4. Was milling around the-show-zone and I saw that bronze Alexander Vizcaino & Ryan Vilade each were in high demand. I sold 3 Vizcaino's for 6.8k altogether (2.5k, 2.5k, 1.8k). If you have a minute today, check for these in your collection.

When is Stage 4 supposed to be released?

Best hypothesis I've heard so far is 9/22 - start of Fall.

I vote Feller, but I also can't catch up with the high fastball on HOF to save my life.

Whoever has it listed has to be thinking...it only takes 1, lol

I'd add 98 Awards Gagne and look to move Ruth to 1B for defensive purposes. Maybe give 97 Awards McCutcheon a look - I hit well with him - but I can't hit w/J.D., we're all different.

I have 99 Wagner/99 Rivera/97 Chapman and Gagne has outperformed them for me...granted that is tied to my ability and pitch selection.

If you're playing online I'd consider working on the Jackie Robinson path, far easier to get him after they added that #42 conquest map - would be a diverse piece off your bench, utility guy, can pinch run.

I'd consider knocking out June Monthly Awards for Bellinger too. Can be done 100% offline.

This lines up when players are playing the most. So it would be 7-11 PM EST imo. Gets the West Coast in too. So more players are earning cards and quick selling them to fulfill your buy orders.

Far more buy orders are placed during the early part of the day when users are at work, etc. Then they're fulfilled in latter half of the day.

Best time for flipping? Honestly, if you look at how many sell per a minute and work 30+ different cards at the same time you can make a profit anytime. I used to look to make 100k every 3 hrs. I stay away from the most active items and find a niche and go. Ten equipment items in one browser, refresh them every 15 minutes and usually Gold LS that have the best profit.

Yes, toggle to "Not Owned" - Can look at all teams at once.

No sir. I plan on taking my stubs to my grave...thank you very much.

@buttmuncher150 said in Daily reminder that showdown is a joke:

I beat the starter 2 showdown last night on my first try with 100% success rate. I didn’t think I could even come close. I still don’t have the guts to try a real one tho

I was in same boat but beat 5th inning on first try. Give it a shot!

I bought 12 (50) packs yesterday, lol. Broke even w/a Trout/2Verlander/DeGrom, but still - lol

@taco_truck_face said in Do we get XP for failed Moment attempts?:

Yes. I'm certain I got nearly a level for failing the Vlad Jr. 2-HR in a game Team Affinity Moment over and over.

Kyle Seager one for me! Lol

You don't get sent back on the 3 extra missions. Only have to restart on the mini-bosses.

I’m sure you know the feeling of kinda being lost on where to go next. Looking for thoughts on what you’d do if you were me.

450k stubs and kinda in the middle on trout, can’t complete him but it would be close-ish. Don’t know if I wanna blow those stubs with more end game cards (assuming) coming.

Prestige posey
Babe
Hornsby
Brett/shef platoon
Tatis
Mantle
Cobb
Harper

Bench is all the bats from the Tatis grind and biggio

Kluber
Maddux
Wood
Seaver
Prestige pax

Fingers, diaz (gonna upgrade this), Rodney, chapman, Wagner, dibble, smoltz

If you’re bored let me know what you would do! Thanks!

Your team is solid bro. Definitely more than competitive. Trout has been awesome but it’s a [censored] load of stubs. You can go buy Walker and be set. The only reason I would consider completing Trout at this point is for the XP, if you need it. You also get back 75k stubs for completing him so that’s nice. Did you get that free TN pack yesterday? Add the White Sox reliever and go buy Gagne. Sell Smoltz and take out Diaz or Rodney

I second giving Gagne some run.

@yeahlexx - Where are you on the Team Affinity stages?

Done all stage 1 lol I took a couple months off about a month into the game cause I couldnt emotionally handle squaring up every ball and weak contact every batter lol. But all of stage 1 is done and maybe 6 or 7 stage twos but thats about it.

You have a lot of options.

I'm a first year player. When i was at the same point about 1.5 months back I went all in on Team Affinity. Started getting 70 overall players all day for 25 stubs - https://the-show-zone.com/exchanges/team-affinity/ - exchanging cost me around 2k for each level. With all of the Stub bonuses, team affinity & ballin packs I just about broke even. Even if you're down a bit you can sell the FOTF cards you don't want or use for a Trout voucher ~ now I'm waiting on TA4 and pretty engaged. This would potentially put you in great position for the upcoming TA4 cards you want to cherry pick.

Could go this route and only target the players that have the highest selling value right now and make out like a bandit: Orel Hershiser (84k), Kerry Wood (77.5k), Tom Henke (61.9k), Mike Schmidt (48.9k).

Or you could just play the RIB Showdown/Conquest over and over, sell your reward and go after Trout, along w/your current stub count towards whatever you need.

Just sold two as well. Good luck @Zakk3426

Yes, you can keep skipping. Only drawback is other strongholds usually go up by 1 each turn.

You just run through the TA2 & TA3's? Or this more over time?

All done. I wasn't going to until they announced that FOTF would be sellable - exchange route paid for itself.

Everybody should do the Dodgers with how high Hershiser is selling for.

I am a .198 hitter and he is hitting .457 for me.

haha You had me at .198. I guess I'm picking up Big Hurt! That 125/125 against lefties is spectacular.

This! I have him in a platoon. Basically sub him in at 1B when facing a lefty.
