Another Sporer's Boner?

The Jackie Perfect Mission 1 requires 153 points, but I think it should be 143 points because:

33 points of lower cards
40 points for Furillo
70 or 75 points for two other diamonds.

Furillo is useless to get because you would still need both other diamonds.
But, if it were 143 points then any 2 diamonds plus some of the little cards would be sufficient.

it was intentional, to create a bottleneck in completing the mission. All they really have to do is add one 5-pointer and you could do the mission without Duke or Campy.

[Capngary]

Found the same thing.
Gotta pull Duke or Campy. Buying them is insane.
And there is no other path

[Kushiel]

The same sort of crap as was done in last year's missions.

Yes, but it was obviously intentional. And no amount of buying more packs is going to bridge the gap. I don't mind a challenge. But making a mission, especially a Key mission, unachievable for the majority of players is not the way to create happy customers.

I'm not fan of these bottlenecks either but at the same time 100 Jackie is arguably the best card in the game right now, he shouldn't be easy to acquire.

For the survey this was my pet peeve. Do the math and avoid the bottlenecks in missions.

I guess the results of the survey didn’t matter?

Or, and just bear with me here, I know it's a radical thought- maybe your suggestion doesn't carry the weight you think it does?

You're actually *surprised* that they didnt give us one more 5 point option so we didnt have to get BOTH duke and Camp? How would they milk the money out of the impatient frustrated ones?

You actually need Duke OR Campy not BOTH... Still a steep price, but not as steep.

Just bear with me, as I was saying, collections can be challenging but please avoid the bottleneck cards like Platinum 1 Carew in PT23. Just please do the math!

Since there were two options in this case, okay. I just hope the survey presented after PT23 revealed this issue and PT crew is listening? They have been pretty good about listening in the past.
