Thou shall not dashboard

It definitely makes me drop a lot of F-bombs.

Mantle is awesome.

You don’t NEED any card, but you will not regret getting him.

Only time I use it is sometimes for moments when you have to hit XBH/HR with weaker hitters.

That was the most exciting and stressful run of games ever. I drafted this team last night and just played 1 game. Tonight after a few event games, I went back at it hoping to get up to 3 or 4 wins to end the night. I was in such a groove I didn’t want to stop and risk being off my game tomorrow. Got the best of a few goons in the earlier games and then was really shocked and fortunate to play some weaker competition at the end of the run. Last few matchups took a long time to get and they were actually with Bronze and Silver level players. Final game I won 7-0 so it was no sweat at all, but I was locked in on every [censored] pitch and throwing my fist in the air with every out that got me closer to the prize. Here’s the winning squad:

1- HRD Anderson(LF)
2- LS Bogaerts(SS)
3- SS Helton(1B)- guy raked for me .632, 6 HR, 3 2B, 17 RBI, 2.387 OPS!
4. LS Sanchez(C)- downgraded to Silver. I’d say he’s the reason I went flawless. Clutch all day. .733 avg., 8 HR, 1 2B, 17 RBI, a walkoff HR, took a game tying walk on a 3-2 FB just a bit inside with 2 outs in game 11.
5. LS Olson(RF)
6. LS Riley(3B)
7. LS Escobar(2B)
8. LS Kiermaier(CF)

Everyone chipped in on offense. I was def locked in. Outscored my opponents 71-19!

Pitching all LS Cards:
SP- Clevinger, Hernandez(MIA), Lucchesi
RP-Venters, Scott, Strop, Winkler, Jones, Pagan, Workman

It can be done fellas. I’d like to think I’m a decent player, but not great. I’ve made Championship series on my main acct 2x, but never got to WS(854 my best). I’ve never been further than 7 flawless wins before and maxed out at 10 wins as my best previous BR run. Maybe the goons are playing RS or Madden. Give it a shot guys!

Forgot to mention. I got Arenado as my 12 win and took Wagner as my Flawless. Going to try him out, but I def think I’ll be listing him for a 1 MILLION DOLLARS(DR. Evil voice) soon.

That’s the first time I’ve matched up with someone from the forums. Some clutch hitting late. Good clean battle though.

PS- FOOK Wagner lol

I play this game a lot. In fact it’s the only video game I play these days. I enjoy Grinding and grinding away because I like all the challenges and building up my team, prestige game cards, etc. but every now and then I get bored and want a different challenge. With the way stubs are in the game the last couple of months I decided to try something when they dropped that free bundle with the 5th inning choice pack the other night.

I started a brand new account. I got the free bundle pack from the shop. I took Mo and pulled the rare(cheaper) round in the Finest pack and took Acuña. I sold them both and started flipping 5th round bosses like a BOSS. In the past 72 hours, the only gameplay I did on the account was 2 Team affinity conquest maps(BAL/BOS), 1 RIB Showdown(took Baez)and some Moments. I am currently sitting at 2.2 million stubs, I exchanged my way up to the Finest player in TA4 for BAL, BOS and WAS. I have already put together a very competitive squad(not as fully loaded as my main account obviously, but not bad).

My goal right now is to get the team loaded up with players from the East and then attack the East event when it starts up. Pretty nuts how easily you can get stubs right now. I can keep doing buy orders and complete the Mantle collection already.

Can’t wait to be the Bronze 35 player with a full goon squad messing people up in the event lol.

So yea anyone hurting for stubs go flip some MO, Larry and Papi’s and you should be good.

@KILLERPRESENCE4 said in If you bought a lot of packs...look for these cards in your collection.:

It’s a stub transfer that’s all. Take advantage of it while it last as it won’t be like that tomorrow.

Actually it happens when a new card is introduced in the roster update and there is a low supply. Someone trying to finish a collection will need some common player they’ve never heard of and you can sell it for upwards of 2500 stubs if you’re lucky to pull one. I’ve done it a few times.

For your method of flipping, do you stay in the market (and upbid, etc) or do you do something else and then come back?

Both. If the market is hot and cards are moving fast I stick around and make moves if I have time. Other times I’ll put in some buy/sell orders and go do something else and check it later and do the same. So many people have been getting this card free and selling it immediately and so
Many others have probably been buying the ones they didn’t have since they are so cheap. They have moved very fast the past few days with good margins(typically made between 5-8k per flip depending on the time of day and what was happening.

Who's on the new squad so far?

For conquest I’m using a lot of the Monthly awards guys to complete some missions(towards Tatis, Mondesi and JRam). So I’ve unlocked some of those.

C-99 d’Arnaud
1B- 99 Ortiz
2B- 99 Lux
3B- 94 Chipper
SS- 99 Bogaerts
LF- 99 Soto
CF- 96 Ellsbury
RF- 99 Walker

99 Santander, 99 Acuña 97 Baez, 96 Alfaro, 96 Miller

Like I said also have a handful of the MA cards, Topps Now, etc.

Pitching is much weaker. Have some cheaper non- TA 4 SP Finest(99Cole, 97 Ryu, 97 Gonzales). Pulled 98 Lazardo in a TA pack. Have a few MA and Topps Now guys. Have Mo, LS Chapman, Rodney and some MA and Topps now pen arms.

I’m mostly trying to load up guys I can use in the East event. It will be fun using Chipper and Ellsbury again as I loved using those guys earlier in the year.

Goal now is to grind out the DeGrom and Freeman Finest so I’ll have them for the event. I love Freeman’s card, but I really want to give Ortiz a shot in the event since I really didn’t give him much of a chance this year with all the other 1B choices.

@OceanBubbles000 said in 99 McCovey reward in next event.:

Does the wins from this event now carry because I need 10 wins for Verlander but can barely hit again due to lag with opponents in Russia and Australia yet here I am in Scotland.

They carry to part 3 of the current event(East Teams). I don’t think that event starts back up for two weeks though.

Solid sample size

I’d say you do the same thing that you do when they say “I’m 11-0, can you quit?”

You ignore them and/or laugh at them.

FYI there are no 3-0 counts with quick counts.

If that’s the case then it has changed from its original concept back in 14:

Unless Quick Counts Online is a different beast to Quick Counts Snr.

QC online starts ABs as:

1-1
2-1
3-1
1-2
2-2
3-2

@dbarmonstar said in SDS you must do something about dashboarding.:

Pitching Pitching Pitching. I can not say it enough is the problem in this game. Why should players be rewarded with HR's swinging way out of the zone?

Yes we know there are issues, but what does that have to do with you dashboarding?

If you truly believed this, then every time you hit a HR on a bad swing you would dashboard yourself. How many times have you done that?

Yea but a dashboard is a free win that was the point of my post. I like when people dashboard idrc abt stats at all

Just because you don’t care doesn’t mean that other people don’t. Sometimes I’m literally only playing the event to prestige certain cards. Last event was 50 win cap and after I hit that I kept playing just for stats. Everyone plays for different reasons, but it is always a D-bag move to dashboard. It also usually takes place in a situation where you are already going to beat the person so they aren’t giving you a “free” win anyway. They are literally just taking away stats that you grind for because they are childish.
