Advantages to created player for DD team

[citybythebay85]

I didn't make one for my DD team last year, it just didn't appeal to me to have a fake player on the team. But I keep hearing you can unlock player cards by feeding cards to your DD created player. What kind of advantages do I get by making one? I also like collecting cards and I know you have to use them to improve your player, so I'm hesitant.

Just because you make your custom player for the feed rewards, doesn't mean you have to use them in your squad. That's what I'm doing at least.

But the advantages are that your custom player can play any position after just a little training. The game markets it as a "player who can fill any hole in your team" type thing.

You can feed your bronze and common cards to him too. Just giving him lots of those really help too.

He's also very flexible. I find him really useful for double switches if you don't have a bench guyer and he could be one of your better players. I haven't made mine yet because I'm focusing on collections right now.

I'm new to DD (giving it a shot this year while I wait for the OSFM rosters to drop) and am unsure about the importance/benefits of this tool. I decided to go ahead and create him, but as of right now I'm only feeding him duplicates so I can focus on collections.

You definitely want to create him. I have done 7 collections and the players i dont want i feed him. Also for conquest rewards. i unlocked a 96 a Prince feilder yesterday and you can also get 95 Joey bats, 98 Beltre, 95 berra, 94 Holliday, 95 Pabelbon and many other great players. You have to conquer areas, play a certain amount of innings with players from that team then feed a ton of cards from that team to your player. My DD guy is already a 97 2b

he's one of the best players you'll have... he's a 5 tool player that can play any postion, if you feed him enough he's the best player in the game

Tips on feeding him? I had been selling all my duplicates, maybe I should have fed my created player instead.

I didn't have any interest in playing with a created player last year. So I created a legendary player that was not in the game. Last year I created Vladimir Guerrero because I was always a fan of his growing up. My friend created Ken Griffey Jr. Playing extra inning games against other players I saw people who had created Babe Ruth as well.

Just an idea for people who want make a diamond dynasty player, but don't want to have a "fake player" in their lineup.
