Could also mean SSD might wise up and actually up the quality of their packs, because we know they're not very good.

Hows Hughes as a closer? I have him in my deck, but not activated.

Also want G.Cole as my #1, he's a flamethrower
Honestly Cole is my favorite player but in DD he kinda sucks gives up too many hits. The best pitcher I used so far was Tanaka but his motion is so slow and then Scherzer

I can see that being the case. G.Cole is not as OP as he was last year, still fantastic, more so in real life.
From the online play, Tanaka gets a lot of swings and misses because of that motion and his speed changes.

Re: Diamond Dynasty - What's your lineup?

My California Bulls lineup-

SS - Jean Segura
2B - Kolten Wong
CF - Andrew McCutchen
RF - Giancarlo Stanton
LF - Jay Bruce
1B - Brandon Belt
C. - Kurt Suzuki
3B - David Freese
P. - Matt Cain

Pretty happy with my lineup so far. Stanton has been a straight beast!! Probably start trying to get some pitching packs next.

^ nice lineup. Just curious how did you get Stanton? Did you buy him off the market or did you pull him.

I wouldn't mind a Stanton but his price is out of my range.

Re: Diamond Dynasty - What's your lineup?

only bought 75k stubs + anniversery edition to be able to have funds to play the market and made more than a mill with that in a couple of days.
Identify good players to put good buy offers on at the time and then sell them. for example I think i bought over 10 tulotiwzkis for 40-43k and sold them for 55-63k. I got all collections done except 1. I could of done a bit more trading to get those but I would rather have something to work towards and enjoy my 150% stubs and items bonus. (29+1 stadium done)

Sp Clayton kershew 99
Sp Nolan Ryan 98
Sp felix hernendez 97
sp Tom Seaver 97
Sp phil niekro 92 (i like him because of knuckle ball) but I also got chris sale max sherzer and adam wainright as options

Re: Diamond Dynasty - What's your lineup?

Some card flipping tips though now that I am done. Use an excel sheet to write down all cards you buy and then how much you sell them for. Its fun to keep track of your profits just make sure to make it so it multiplies your sell price by .95 and then subtracts your buy price. But the real reason you do that is it helps you identify good deals later on really well. Also Always used the buy order to buy things and sell order to sell things Unless there is an absoulte steal in either one. Make sure to keep checking back on them and overcut/undercut by about 150. Don't overcut/undercut by 1 because that is just rude and also it makes people think you are flipping cards and sometimes people sell to the one that is 1 over.

aim for around 10k profit per card. I only dealt with diamond players and high value gold players like pedroia. I sometimes went for 5k profits on cards i knew would sell fast because i don't want to waste a buy/sell order. they have limited ones.

Also and probably the most important thing. is to know when Not to underdcut. For example let's say you have a troy tulowitzky up for 59k that you bought for 41k. and someone suddently tries to sells it for 52k. Since You know the troy tulowitzky market well and you know when that hapepns he usually goes back up to 60k+ later. Just let that other one sell. I have had cards that were third or fourth in line sell within an hour or two.

same goes for buy orders but that you can just ignore that card for a bit until the buy order goes down. Like if people are buying troy for 50k+ just ignore it for a while and work with gio etc.


once you have a bunch of cards like i did I pretty much had the leading buy AND the lowest sell orders on a bunch of the same diamond cards. I had as many as i had buy/sell orders.

I was alot of fun having a buster posey buy order for 20k at the same time i have it sellign for 32k.

I flipped alot of cards within 5-10 minitues. I had some actually flip within the same miniute on the transaction page. It was funny.
