What do you think about the Playoff Program and today's Legends? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
Don't know about the rest of you, but I'm not even remotely interested in that 89ovr for over 100 Stars... I'll just keep doing seasons and WL.
Yep I prefer seasons and buying packs/players to update my team. Solo challenges are too short and I spend more time on the loading screens that actually playing.
Glad I’m not the only one... and a NAT 89 player at that!
Really wish EA would put out powerups with players when they come out. (Edmund's, Lynch) Like it really cant be that hard. I don't care what excuses Kraelo has made about it taking 8 hours a card (we all know this is a complete lie). Like if it really is taking that long then get someone new to do it, or find a better way.. This waiting to maybe, eventually get a powerup is getting old. This is not a hard fix, regardless of what anyone at EA says. Its 2020 EA, get with the times.. If you want is to use these powerups, and spend our money on training, then you need to actually give us new powerups more then just twice in the first 5 months of the game. Either get rid of them completely or start coming out with them way way more often, and way way more of them. No card over a 90 ovr in the game right now should be without a powerup. Yet almost all of them don't have a powerup. And honestly this is really something EA needs to address, and they need to address it quick. They've been doing powerups now for 3 years. How have they not found a better way... Honestly I think they are just lazy and not good at their job. Because their is absolutely no excuse for how few new powerups they have realesed this year. Like watch them again this year never give shady McCoy a powerup...
108 stars for a 89 is terrible. we got a set piece from every team in years past
Don't worry, there will be even less content next year, so this year will feel better in retrospect! You just have to wait!
oh yea you’re right
this 89 nat must be a joke.
it better be
36 challenges for an 89ovr card you've got to be kidding me
Some pretty solid cards. I hope one day the lions make the playoffs so I can experience nice cards like this 🤣😂
:| sorry friend
Deshaun Watson is insane
This is the best kind of promo. Makes running a theme team so much more fun. Vikings theme team got a plus 2 (89 to a 91) overall boost today. Hopefully EA does more of these kinds of promos in the offseason. Last years Team Builder promo was amazing.
Unless your team didn't make the playoffs. I agree though. Can't wait for Team Builder promo.
As thankful as I am for the new cards, I can't help but want Wildcard TOTW cards. Cook and Thielen both earned upgrades against the Saints.
Speaking strictly for theme team purposes, the 9ners hero Dee Ford does more for the Chiefs theme team than the Chiefs hero Travis Kelce.
Staley does more than both. Seahawks Duane Brown as well.
Can’t wait to pick up Davante Adams. Thx EA
Ridiculous having to do all that for an 89ovr
Opinions Please... https://www.muthead.com/20/team-builder/2fef1ab1-d609-455d-b8dc-0e3b70934ca7/ I currently have 7,978 training and only 11,310 coins. I still have 1x 85-86 power up pass, and 2x 62-81 power up pass' and my Patrick Tillman is an 83. I also have a Bruce Matthews power up, Jonathan Ogden power up and Jerry Rice power up. What should I do with my lineup? I need help.
Hey bro, you might want to work on your chemistries. x2 and 3 where you can (88 and overs) and I got rid of BO and BD and replaced with WC and LD. That powered up Dickerson is a beast. Maybe get rid of AP and start Dickerson. Maybe use your open backup positions for low golds on the same team to help build team chem. Adding a little theme team and adding chemistry to coaches, uniforms and stadiums also helps. Unfortunately you're gonna have to play more and keep leveling up, too. Good luck, hope this helps.
I currently have Jim Brown powered up but I’m thinking of switching to a new rb. Thinking either Bo or Walter. What do u guys suggest?
Bo or Dickerson
Not sure if I’m right but last year they did limited editions for top playoff performances if they do that again do you guys think they’ll do a dk metcalf since he went off and broke a record today
they did do that, and I doubt they do it this year. they also used to do playoffs team of the week which isn't a thing anymore either.
When you complete the Hero sets, do you get the 6 theme team cards back as NAT? It doesn't say and I don't want to lose all of the cards.
I do not believe you get the Hero set cards back.
Ridiculous having to do all that for an 89ovr
So is EA gonna fix the 95 power up pass ?i can’t power up my rod woodson to 95 for some odd reason anyone else having a problem with this?
The 95 power up pass is used in place of 95s not a 94 card like Rod Woodson
Rod woodsons card is a 94 I’m pretty sure
I was able to power up my Barry sanders to 95?so idk
Unless you had 500k gold available, you likely used 93-94 power up. Try Downgrade and see... I had to decide between Woodson and (Deion) Sanders, not both.
Great for Theme teams.
Does anyone know if the set heroes can get every team's chem? They did this with the Kurt Warner at the beginning of the year, but I think they went away from it
for the master sets, do we get all three back as NAT, or just one?
you get to choose three of the players out of that conference. So if you put 3 Deshaun Watsons you could get a Deshaun, a Kelce, and a Stanley back (for example). You can picks any 3 out of that conference
Where should I improve my team? Priorities first plz
