If i can get a dupe leg then I might put 100 credit , for a star card 2-400.
So I guess ah won't be for me.

Well, I assume that the minimum bids will be at levels that don't diminish sales of packs.

So... sorry to say, but I don't think we'll be getting star cards at 2-400 creds Not because there won't be supply, but because the economy will be restricted with a mandated sell-rate.

I know it's a shame, but they will prob make more money if the allow smaller transactions, but as the pack prices are they way they are I don't see them allowing on anything under 5k for a star card

Yeah, if they fail to make this an open market, there really won't be much of a point to it. Let the market set the price for cards and promote as many transactions as possible. Since they get a certain percentage from each transaction, they'll make money off of bulk. Also, this game uses cards to train other cards, so if they keep the price down, they could end up with a large number of transactions that are pure profit for them. If I buy a fully trained dup SR card to train a Star card, not only do they get x% from the seller, but they also get the entire amount that I paid for it, because that card is no longer sellable/usable. If they jack the price up to the point that it doesn't make sense to buy lesser cards, that no longer applies.

Ah is just a new way to get people to buy there favorite cards rather then get some random. Everything goes to them cause if u sell a card u can't cash out the credits u earn from the sale.

SR and UR tiers didn't exist. It was common, uncommon, rare, epic, legendary and playoff.

And playoff was added later, I believe. Wow, I didn't know they introduced 2 tiers this year. Makes sense to add longevity to the game, I suppose, and create a longer feeling of progression.

Last year the epic to legendary packs were 1200 and the legendary to playoff packs were 2500. Even then it seemed pretty high.
