MLB The Show 17: How to Get Stubs Easily
Step 3: Study the Community Market Board and Discover Trends
Like the last tip said, don’t gamble away your Stubs. If you’re serious about playing Diamond Dynasty for a while and really building up your team for the long haul, you’re going to want to get well acquainted with MLB The Show 17’s community market board.
If you’re never played Diamond Dynasty, or MLB The Show before, the community market board might seem confusing or intimidating. However your best friends are going to the filters. Utilizing the filters effectively is how you’re going to learn to become a masters wheeler and dealer.
Whenever you log in to play, visit the market board and play close attention to the various prices of players you either A: have your eye on, or B: notice are very popular and in high demand, and also C: every player you own that you’re able to sell. Hell, if you’re really serious, take some notes.
The prices are going to fluctuate, and you want to be able to identify when something is selling below, or above it’s usual market value. So if you see a player you really want, or a highly coveted card that you would eventually just flip selling for much lower than it usually is, grab it right away. Either keep it if you want, or flip it for more, but take advantage of that change in price.
I’m personally a fan of shipping highly coveted expensive players out to fill multiple needs in other positions, but having a big bat, or an ace in your lineup/rotation always helps.
The key though is to be as savvy as possible. Bigger name are going to be higher in demand, try to sell those guys and instead, fill your roster with lesser known, but equally as effective players. Try not to get attached to any overpriced cards if you’re trying to get Stubs quick, it’s only going to hurt you in the long run.
