New all time great

Bigpredfan

a lot of people about to be happy. 

Hank Aaron- max 550

those of you with other ATG should be excited 

tocopan18

my Babe has not been updated to 550 yet. It should happen soon I hope

Houmy

Oh @Bigpredfan how much the two of us would love to have him. All of a sudden it's like "Chipper who?"  

JEDDDOGGY

Where did you see this?

I have Mays... so he’ll be updated to 550? 

Houmy

@JEDDDOGGY it's in the store and if you don't see it then restart. Yes Mays will be 550 as well as ATG will always be matched to the highest maxes released down the road.

JEDDDOGGY

Awesome! At 550 max he should be an absolute hammer on 5.10

Houmy

Ok so hank is 520 now but with a skill. Is GLU going to refund what gold we spent thinking we were chasing a 550 batter? And what of those that already pulled him at 550?

DFBB

To be fair, hank's current version is considerably better than his 550 version.

DFBB

That said, it's mind boggling be that they would release Hank as a 550, then drop him to a 520.

Houmy

That's my point @dfbb. Doesn't make any difference which version is better as ling as they do it right the 1st time. I mean how hard is it to decide on the correct numbers and then code them in the app? On that note the choice is clear for me now. Fisk will be maxed and by next Wednesday I should have enough for another down the road. Mays will have to wait for now.

I doubt they do anything.  I noticed yesterday they pulled the box from the store so i figured something was up.  I also thought the jump from 510 to 550 was too much wishful thinking although was hoping 530.  Oh well ill take it.

I still don't understand why they giving living legends two skills and keep ATGs at one. 🤔

Yeah, that sounds retarded. ATG are supposed to be the TOP players on this game. Now they have the guy from the VIP subscription (Davis, I think), Trout, Susuki and Bryant, all with 2 skills. Especially the last 2 at max 495 are a better value (when the 2 skills are active) than a 520 ATG. 
Doesn't make sense to me.

Maybe because legends are capped while ATGs can still go higher?

Bigpredfan

Let’s pretend that I was silver for a minute. I have 500 max Eric Davis and he has 2 skills (walk-off and left handed pitching).

Both skills maxed means his boost is 40% for a left handed walk-off matchup. I would want that much more than a 520 max guy with a 20% boost. Any day of the week. 

ATG’s should be the best possible players in the game. They move their max to meet new players, they should also add skills as players now have multiple skills. 

Houmy

Would you still feel the same when the ATG hits 550 @Bigpredfan?

I may not be playing when that happens!  Lol 

honestly looking at the math I probably would. 10% of 500 is 50, so it would be a 10% better and 20% boosted as opposed to 40% boosted. So it wouldn’t be too much of a difference at 550 with 1 skill as opposed to 500 with 2 skills. 

Im just using the math as though skills are maxed for comparison of course. 

Houmy

Speaking of legends there are some that haven't been introduced yet so I'm wondering if they'll be in future WOH. Edgar Martinez for one and Kenny Lofton. They wouldn't be in the 700 gold draft picks as they're above the 445ish you find in those boxes.

Bigpredfan

I’ve seen Lofton before this year. He was a fan rewards 30K player I believe one weekend 

Sandpipers

And where are those WS Trophy guys? I would have thought they'd be out by now

Yes. I’ve heard that it’s hackers and that is why we only have the baby box.
