Step 2: Don’t Gamble on Packs
How to Gets Stubs – MLB The Show 21
The allure of packs is extremely hard to resist, I get it 100%. Although I’m about to go on a rant about why buying packs is bad… I still buy packs sometimes.
The reason why they are so tempting is that they tease the “unknown,” the big score like Mike Trout that could set you for a whole season Stubs wise if you sell it.
Here’s the thing, the amount that the average person will gamble on Stubs and never get anything of value they could just straight up buy Mike Trout from the Community Market.
Don’t buy packs unless you have nothing else you want to do with your Stubs.
Yes, will someone hit on Mike Trout and call me an idiot, yes, but every one person that gets that big pull of an expensive Diamond, there are poor saps wasting their stubs on a bundle of useless Bronze cards.
If you never buy a pack, and just save all your Stubs, you’ll eventually just be able to straight up buy most of the Diamond cards you could ever want or need. I learned that the hard way last season.
If you have Stubs burning a hole in your pocket, and you’re good at MLB The Show 21, take your chances in Battle Royal, or buying limited time packs with defined rewards. At least with those things, you have an idea of what your reward will be.
