Anyone else collect credits and cases?
Nothing special until you have 1.000.000+ like @Amerika or @JamesMcGinty Who opened 1.000 cases at once.
I bought an 18h credit booster and now I’m saving up until that sucker is gone.
I’m curious how much I’ll get of each (no spoilers please ! :D)
I collect free elite cases.
If I’m not mistaken I have a total amount of five pieces.
Two of the old ones as well as two type A and one type B.
Now if you count the free starter pack I snacked from @SirSwag then that’s seven elite cases. 
Furthermore I have three expert cases, one of each type.
Sadly I’m not able to provide any screenshot as I can’t access any online games, Steam included.
I don’t collect cases. I always open them. Which means I now have ~600 unwanted cards. I’m not doing any trade ups until a new merc comes out. Then I will use them to get all good bronzes for that merc, and byproducts will be used for silver+ trade ups for my favorite mercs.
I also have 430k credits but I won’t buy cases unless we get another CW/WtD type event. I’m getting plenty cases from playing.
When a new merc comes out cases may drop a loadout form him/her. That’s the only reason I see but I’m too impatient to do that 
I collect bronze cards

Instant gold once the next merc comes out. I guess. Or something
Anyone got more that 9 copies of a card? I hope there’s no bug that eats a card if there’s already 9

Oh
Well, when new merc comes out I guess I’ll just buy a preferable bronze card for them. I don’t have good skins with good loadouts for all merc I already own, so I’m not really into this collecting thing
But thanks for clarifying that to me.
Ah, one more thing! I saw that someone still has event cases. As it was explained in some other thread, you won’t get a loadout from an event case for a merc that didn’t exist at the time of the event.

I had over 11, no problem there.
Be warned that the loading times for cards seriously increase after about 1500-1600. I was not able to change mercs during the lobby at this point cause it takes over a minutes to get the info loaded.
During the events I dropped a lot of credits into the special crates and also opened them, resulting in a massively blown up inventory with said performance drop. I had to trade up hundreds of my cards for a lot credits, which I didnt want to do but couldnt see another fix.
Since then I just save my crates and credits.
On the bright side, I got a complete collection of all lead and iron cards 
Yeah, right now with ~700 it takes 10-15s to load cards in the lobby which is already frustrating. A favorite loadout system is badly needed because there’s no point in loading all the leads and irons when I have every loadout I want in Bronze or better.
Not really. I only save up credits if there’s a merc coming who I want to buy.
I used to keep cases and open them after a new merc came out in hopes of getting a solid card for the new merc. And if I didn’t (I never did) I used the fodder for trade-ups so I didn’t have to buy the cards I wanted for 17.5k apiece (that worked). Now I just open cases as I get them due to the Open Case option when they are awarded. I do have a lot of credits though. I rarely ever spend them since I hate the super heavy RNG system. I want a Swiss Red Stoker with Stark/drilled so bad…but I’m not willing to blow all my credits attempting it and probably still not get what i want.
