I'll hit level 30 on Donaldson soon but am not sure I will want to use tickets on the Donaldson level 30 card.


Once I hit 30, I will switch to Rizzo probably.

Re: What do the 2500 coin captain packs contain?

I hit 30 with Ortiz and was going to buy the Cole card to sell, but then realized all the cards from the Captains are No Sell. Not sure why I didn't see that before.

I guess it makes sense as it would flood the market with those Gold cards. I guess I'm still really trying to figure out the point of the captains missions besides just to save up and get the golds for your DD team. Why would you buy the Tier 1-3 cards?

Also, once you buy the gold, does it change to another card? Because the Golds have been the same since the game came out.

No they have not. The Golds change weekly. I would suggest holding off on purchasing anyone from the captain store until someone rare shows up. I'm pretty sure they stated that their would be some cards available only in the captains store...so that's who I'm waiting for

Yep. Bought one of the Donaldson ones and found that out the hard way. Got 2 of the same garbage common out of 3 cards. But at least his clutch rating is high!

They are suppose to change weekly, but Ortiz has been Cole since launch. Maybe by luck it wqs Cole again.

Clutch arm accuracy is vital when choosing a 9th string second baseman.

I'm actually glad it came back, I was level 28 with about 150 tickets to go when it had about 16 hours left. Ended up falling asleep and waking up around noon the next day, completely depressed that I missed out.. I don't think I logged back into the Show for a day because all that work for nothing and then of course the servers were still bad. Come to find out he was still the level 30 card! Got 'em



And don't buy the Captains cards, you pay 2x as much as a regular pack, get half the cards. All about the same randomness of suck.

Re: What do the 2500 coin captain packs contain?

The captain packs seem totally not worth the money. It seems like it takes forever to level up a Captain, I am at level 27 with Altuve and I wanted the Springer card last week but after making it up 20 levels the first week I could only get up 7 levels last week despite getting like 1,200 tickets. Keeping my fingers crossed next weeks card will be Correa since the week it is Danny Salzar and he wouldn't make it on my roation.
