Topps® NHL SKATE™ Card Trader Reviews

by Madog255

Well for starters, I tried signing up with Facebook out of the options given but it wouldn’t work. Then all seemed fine when I just continued as a guest. Topps worked when I was using it the first time I was ripping packs, collecting cards, crafting better cards, even though it was super confusing what the point was and the sets(like the red, green, white, among others). Eventually I just signed up with apple to keep the collections and whatnot. Unfortunately I’m going to have to delete it from my phone since I can never get past the loading screen anymore. It gets to 40% and then gives me an error message. Not a terrible app idea especially with the card collecting interest surge since the pandemic. Needs some work to make the collections/sets more laid out and clearer. I was confused if when I crafted the card I’d lose it from the collection and overall kind of confusing so I guess me not being able to log in is a blessing in disguise since I won’t be more confused by Topps and the sets/collections.

People who run Topps are bunch of hypocrites … I had uncomfortable conversation with this very annoying trader and I got suspended within 1 hour for 24hours ! Then another different conversation appeared and the other person cursed me with the “F” word , when I reported nothing happened to him within many days yet he kept showing off on my chat stating he can curst people as much as he want because he spend $20-30 a week and they will never ban his account … This shameless app is full of discrimination and dividing people … shame on you this app skate ! Can’t believe Topps is still legally running because it’s a pure circus

I have been using Topps everyday for months. I follow all the rules, never have any problems. Two days ago I open Topps and I am logged out. This had never happened before, but I was not worried. I try signing in and it says “this account does not exist”. I send a ticket to support and don’t receive any feedback. 24-hours of not being able to sign in or know what is happening. I missed coins, contests, and completing sets. Now I am able to sign in but I don’t have any explanation on what happened. You really screwed me with this and I deserve an explanation.

I’ve been using Topps for less than a week but built a collection of over 4,000 cards. A glitch or something happened while using Topps and now 90+% of my collection is gone. I see the same thing is happening to other users as well. I will correct my review if issue is fixed, but for a new user this is a terrible first impression less than a week of using app

The first year in 2017, Topps was a lot of fun and generally seemed in order. Since then, this app has taken away the things customers liked and added things we complained we didn’t want. Odds are also, maybe, as stated, AT BEST. I used to get lucky when opening packs on occasion, but it’s consistently taken at least the stated odds to pull anything. I prefer physical cards anyway.

Topps is great but……. I feel this app neglects innocent users by wrongfully banned/suspended them for sticking up for other users that are wrongfully accused of doing something. I had this happen just earlier today I was defending someone in the trade chat and I got reported for bullying!!!! I contacted customer support which basically told me to go f myself by giving me articles about what to do if I can’t trade. The trade chat has been a war zone half the time and the people who casue a little fight are treated like kings! And the other users are kicked to the curb and it shows which is very sad. And the funny thing is the people who Casue arguments weirdly can’t be reported.

My main gripe about this is not being able to track my VIP points. Last month I was going for the Silver VIP and thought I had enough, but I was only awarded the bronze. I’m sure I only missed it by a few bucks/points and was pretty disappointed I didn’t get the silver. Again, I wish they would let us track that so we all know where we stand in VIP points.

Love the Idea…. The people on here think it’s real cards. They make this it’s not enjoyable by hoarding 5+ digital cards and don’t consider trading. The costumer service isn’t that great also. It gets a little old in free mystery bags are the same card ALL the time add in a high value card once in a while

Love the looks and feel of Bunt….

After the last update Topps runs really slow. Also have not been able to watch videos for coins for about 2 weeks now. One downside is that there are a lot of rude people. I can see how this can be off putting for a lot of new users.
When it comes down to actually what Topps does it’s pretty cool and a lot of fun.

by Gthebigman

I think the cards in this game are gorgeous, but I miss the old days when you had to pick a daily lineup and see how your team did. It was more fun than JUST collecting cards.

by Please Please Do This Idea

I really like this game but there is one thing that I don’t like that is whenever I want to see my collection I can’t. Either it’s not possible or I just don’t know how if you could tell me how to get there thanks. Other then that this is a great game for people who like to collect hockey cards.

by #ROX

Great app all around but it would be cool if they added a Feature where you can sell cards for coins and others can buy them like a market,If they were to add that I would give Topps five stars

by Ryanhockey1108

When Ever I First Got The Game It Was Very Very A Big Bug
Then When It Said Update It Was Not Bugging.I Am A Big Caps Fan But When I Typed In Martin Fehevary Nothing Came up Can this app NHL 22 Please Fix It I would Recommend It It A Very Good Game.

I love Topps I’m a huge hockey fan Florida panthers hockey fan to the exact and when I found this game I said “I’m going to try to find every panthers card I can” but when I went to my wish list thing I could not find Anthony Duclair and I found Hoffman do get me wrong Hoffman is my favorite player even though he switched to the blues I have a panthers jersey of him but when I search Hoffman they are all panthers not a single St. Louis blues Hoffman so maybe a little update add players but other than that I LOVE Topps if your a hockey fan I recommend Topps.

by Me You Hockey

I love this game I am satisfied with the card animation but I do not see a Steven Stamkos with the stanly cup but I love it and I would also like to be able to put more players on the contest mode great job with the game!🤟🏻👍🧒🏻💂🏻👨🏻‍🚀🧑🏼‍🎄🙅🏻🤷🏼⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️🏒🏒🥇🥇🥇🇺🇦🇺🇸

Topps is great. But something happened and now all of my cards in my collection are gone. And this happened to other people as well. It’s only showing me like 5 cards. Everything else is gone

by Hrhfbfjdjrnc

The mission feature has been disabled and I depended on it with my daily coins it offered. I gave Topps 5 stars because I really love my collection of cards. Please bring back this feature. Thank you

by Geggsfhd

This game has some of the coolest features with insane looking cards, I would download Topps if you like hockey at all. Even if you don’t collect cards in real life you can get cool cards that you can trade and you don’t have to spend any money, you get free coins every hour or two and a free card pack as well!

by Nea2

Alright so this isn’t really a review, I’m pretty new to this game (started playing in January 2022) and I already love this game. Here are some suggestions I have for the game.

Money:
I started playing Bunt like a month after I first got Skate, so about a week ago. I got 750k coins without doing anything except opening free packs. In Skate, when I first started, I tried to keep my money above 100k because it was really hard to get money. (It’s a bit easier now that I’m completing the weekly challenges) Oh and I think it would be fun to do a monthly challenge too.

I’ll come back and edit this if I can think of what else I was gonna say, I forget lol

by Rob112497

I absolutely love this game. Everything about it. Im an avid bruins fan and put hockey over all other sports. I have multiple autographed jerseys and ive been to Td garden more times then i can count to watch my boys. And this game gives me a taste of my childhood again. But i will say ive been having an issue loading my trade screens. It keeps saying error. Please fix that bug. I deleted and redownloaded

by Delta11111111

Update: As promised 1*. Another bait and switch. Purchase coins, then company devalues coins, ask you to repurchase new currency because the one you bought is worth less now

this app continues to push this update with head scratching design decisions.
1) App lags more
2) Now takes 3-4x the phone memory compared to last version
3) Cards not loading
4) The frustrating tilt when viewing my cards
5) Removal of useful buttons on the menu

I'm willing to give the update a chance but it appears that they put no thought into this update as they have just followed along with the same poor design decisions pointed out on their other apps.

As a spender and one of the few hardcore users of Topps, diamonds come and this gets updated to 1* and I can virtually guarantee you lose another customer (if it's anything like the other apps).

-Bugs. Including pack bugs with no compensation.
-Inconsistent channel policing: calling out a scammer? Banned. Trolling hours at a time, every day? Not banned.
-Incompetence: locked out of account for about a week with lack of response from support, having to re-explain problem to different support members, and being given a BS explanation from one and then FINALLY a solution from the next? Sorry, no compensation even though you missed limited marathon card packs and have to trade at a premium for them.

There is not any one area where Topps is lacking; it lacks in all areas.

by Bixtone

Don’t get me wrong, Topps is fun and at least they “give” you free packs of cards but don’t expect to grow your collection without spending real money for “diamonds”. You can hardly get anything in any of the this app apps without diamonds. So you can find yourself spending a fair amount of money to have a chance,maybe, at a subset. The thing that is irritating is that these are fake cards. At least when this app had eTopps you could have the cards printed and get them in hand. Their “odds” are way off and inserts are difficult to pull. Do yourself a favor, save your money and go buy a real pack of cards. Preferably not this app.

by Tired Of Fraud

The title says it all. It can be a fun app to play and I am fine with buying cards for play or real money, but they can’t seem to execute well, customer service needs to improve and they need to decide what they want to be. They try too hard to please both the paying customers and the FTP customers and it mostly just pisses off both. But I personally would rather buy cards and play like fantasy, not have to watch every game and constantly change my lineup every 2 seconds. For me that isn’t fun. Gold farmers and multiple accounts are making every card worthless while the lack of consistency and information destroy your chance of building a collection.

by FlyersFansince7-26

Some of the cards look pretty cool, and the community is half decent. That’s it. It is beneficial to have to have 10,000 coins thrown at you everyday, but it pales in comparison to the diamond (micro transaction) system. I don’t spend money, and so contests are an absolute joke. Yes there are new cards everyday, but the good ones (like limited editions) are immediately hoarded by money spenders. To summarize, you may have a decent collection, but someone with a paycheck will bring you right back to earth.

by RoughTraderz

The selection and multiple designs including the actual cards you see in stores like Gypsy Queen are cool but the two tiered coins and diamonds system used to purchase packs leaves a lot to be desired as well as the difference in odds of getting variants. The biggest disappointment is none of these cards are real so your spending actual cash but not getting any real cards so if you do spend any real money at all spend wisely and know it’s just for entertainment and not actual card collecting. It took me a bit of cash to figure that out

by Loopy The Wolf

Topps is super fun but I agree with other reviews that a select group of players run Topps . Packs and cards are gone before I’m even notified that there are new releases . The trade feed can be quite a joke . I rarely find fair traders. I know money rules all but I’d love a chance at some true desirable cards. The nightly and weekly contests are fun but I’ve never placed below 300 because of certain upper echelon players who collude and collect the higher scoring cards before others even have a chance .

by Ye Ye Guys

First of all, I would like to say this app has put together a very great game and is very addicting. However, I have a few questions/statements. First, why does Bunt get the most effort put into (prize wheel, batter up, etc) when Skate, Huddle, and every other this app app is run by the same company? It would make the this app apps so much better. Second, can we PLEASE get notifications when a trade is sent, declined, countered, or accepted. I hate leaving people unresponsive for hours upon hours, just to get the trade cancelled or expired because it took so long to respond. It would be such a great addition and so many people want it as well and have been talking about it in the trade feed.

by Wiseass Justin

I love Topps and I love the different types of cards but I’m really only there to collect NJ Devils cards and I don’t really care about all other NHL teams cards. I must spend at least $80 weekly which I need to stop doing just to finish my Devils collection. I do enjoy Topps but I probably won’t be playing much anymore because it does take a lot out of my wallet. Wish there was an easier way to collect cards.

by RastaCakes

I love all of the this app card apps and have several that I use daily. One thing that concerns me is how much more attention Bunt gets then any other app. Bunt has a prize wheel, batter up game, and card fusion for your duplicates in the play section.

No other this app app has all three of these extra game modes and it is very troubling.

These extra game modes make me visit Topps more consistently throughout the day to spin the prize wheel and get extra coins from batter up. They have tried to implement this in Kick and Huddle but they are a poor rendition of Bunt’s rewards. In Kick the prize wheel only gives you base cards from MLS and no special or unique inserts like Bunt. Huddle is similar in that it only offers base cards from the prize wheel, nothing special. Meanwhile Skate seems to be all but forgotten and since there is no incentive to visit Topps I only open it once a day to get daily rewards, which is the only way to make coins.

Like I said earlier, please make all this app apps have a standard for gameplay instead of favoring one over the other. There are definitely very easy ways to implement the same game modes across all apps, it just needs a little creativity.

by Danidawnstar

After a year + of playing I am thinking of giving this up. I love hockey I love and breath hockey. However, when I save 500 k of coins waiting for one card or one team card to come out then 95% of the time don’t get it.... it starts to get frustrating. You rarely get cards you want , even if you save up. You can pay to get a better chance but it gets costly fast. Oh there are also diamond only packs (pay only) to get them.

I rather pay initially for Topps and get to enjoy it more , or have a 5 dollar a month thing even to make it both affordable, fun, and still supports a company . You will feel like you get something to start form the game then it just stops. No more progression without real money and even then you may not get what you want.

After so much time invested until they allow you to expand your collection with a chance of getting things some more , then I will not be investing in Topps anymore ... I am sorry I gave it over a year ...

by AtomicGunslinger

Topps is truly one where you need to pay to win. If you want the coolest or highest scoring inserts prepare to pay hundreds of dollars!! Literally no joke.

If you don’t want the coolest or highest scoring inserts, you can still play and earn prizes but you’ll rarely be in the top.

As for the prizes themselves they are terrible. Needs revamped. I only play because i love hockey but i am never spending a dime here.

by ☁Clouds☁

Not going to lie I absolutely love Topps and from the moment I downloaded I have been obsessed with it. But with the new update there isn’t any good offers to complete so it is near impossible to get more coins. Either there needs to be more offers that are able to be completed AND work or implement a rewards system for people that continuously go on Topps daily instead of just 10,000 a day maybe more and more each day the user goes on Topps . Overall it is a good app there just needs to be an option where users can get more coins.

by Hardcoresteve79

Love this trading card app and have had several different accounts since it started. 2 things I wish about Topps :

1) I wish there was a way to get my cards from my other accounts and put them on this one
And
2) I wish there was a way for the normal every day collector to get some of the cards. I don’t mind paying, but sometimes they are gone before you even get a chance

by Cardfan77

What a fun app for if you love hockey and either collect or used to collect cards. Super fun, gives you something to keep you connected to your childhood, if you were like me and loved collecting cards! Don’t have to spend money or if you want, there’s the option too buy cards too. Glad I found this one!
