    Who Has the Most Stubs on OS?

    Curious to compare what people have for stubs, why they stock pile and what they plan to use them on.

    For me I buy and sell on the market and do so with mostly diamond and gold players. I dont have any diamond players except whats locked in my collections.

    I eventually want to own every card but right now I concentrate on finishing collections and only collect enough to finish.

    Whats some of the top stub totals?

    I have every player and 300K(shooting for a cool mil) in stubs hopefully it rolls over to next year.

    BTW acquired this mostly by playing triple play challenges

      Funny enough that was round number I was thinking about shooting for when I created the thread and was wondering if anyone else was shooting for that. I only recently started with the challenges..Havent gotten a thing for cards..commons and bronzes with silvers and gold equipment sprinkled in rarely

        I have about 133K and finished all collections. I don't really have the need to work the market but will put up 20 bids about once or twice a week. I'll spend stubs on promotional packs for fun just to see what I get.

        I tried Triple Play once with about 15 repeats just to see what the hype was all about.

        I have to say, it's a great feeling not having to spend stubs on training DD players after every game like last year.

        It's also a great feeling to know that I am no longer being jipped of stubs from marketplace related exploits such as the Community Challenge thing that surfaced earlier in the year.

        EDIT:
        I would also like to attribute my success with two other changes this year regarding the marketplace:

        1. I like the fact that team names are no longer listed in the buy and sell orders. Last year, I would get discouraged when I kept seeing the same competitors every day and then you would get into bid wars and then build an animosity towards them. This year, I can pretty much get any card I want in a short time period as long as I can afford it.

        2. Doing bids every day is a lot less daunting with the 20 bid limit. It's easier to keep track of things.

          Holy balls, do you guys play this game more than you work or do you put money into it?

            I'm sitting on a fat stack of 24 stubs right now . I have ten teams complete and struggle to make the right market decisions and have spent probably 100-175 bucks on stubs as well

              I barely play, Have played more recently because I have more time, but I go days without turning my PS4 on at all. I have the website open in the back ground of my browser and put bids in to play the market while I watch baseball, other shows or whatever. Ive actually played less this year than others. I spent a few bucks in the beginning and then learned how to buy and sell and play the market. I have made up around 100,000 stubs in a weekend before..it was the first time everyone else was complaining the whole market crashed.

              That weekend I spent about 60,000 - 70,000 stubs and made a profit of 100,000 (thats getting everything I spent back and gaining an extra 100,000)

                I would say there is a 99.99 percent chance that those stubs will not roll over to next year.

                  Stubs were introduced last year and didn't roll over, so I wouldn't think they would next year

                    I believe early in their twitch streams they said specifically that stubs will not roll over.

                      At my highest I had like 100k but bought trout. I was pretty poor for a while but started flipping religiously and have most of the players I want.

                        Last week I had over 600k, but I spent a bunch on the "K's for Days" packs. I've completed every collection, and I have probably 50 or so gold/diamond duplicates in my collection. If they don't roll over into MLB16, then I don't really know what to do with all the stubs.

                          Stubs wont roll over next year.

                          They want even playing field to start off the game.

                            This mode was really doomed from the start. There is no way for stubs/players to leave the game other than through people quitting the mode, and there are so many ways that stubs and players can enter the game.

                            If they don't do something to fix this quickly, then everyone will eventually have every card in the game.
