    Fixing the season rewards should be top of the list IMO but I find it silly to hate on how people win seasons. Don't be upset people (like myself) were willing to spend money on epic packs or rivals to get cards that help us win. You can do the same if you want but you have chosen not to and so you now make your bed, which you have to lay in.

      I'm not hating on people who win seasons or how they do so. I've won seasons too. I'm just saying that it's ridiculous to basically ignore the flawed system by acting like it's not a problem when it clearly is. It's not surprising that the ones who claim to be content with the way seasons operate are the ones who have bought their way past the obstacles that those of us who didn't buy epic packs have to face. On top of that, to sit there and act like nothing is wrong is just salt in the wound of an already (and rightfully) salty player. This isn't hating on people for buying packs; it's frustration over them acting like there's no problem with seasons simply because they don't have to deal with them the same way that most of us do.

      Why fix rewards first if the majority of people still have little to no chance of attaining them?

        I don't think anyone has said that the matchmaking isn't a bit of an issue. The thing is as I said someplace else in this section in reference to the whole "truck" issue. Is if you've been playing this game long enough you're most likely going to be a truck in someones season. It is what it is. I might be a truck in the seasons I've been in recently but I may end up in a season with Twista or someone like that and get ran over. Of course they need to continue to tweak it so it works better but its never going to be perfect. I do think the rewards are a bigger issue. 4 days of play to win the whole thing for maybe 2 epics but most likely a single that doesn't help me at all doesn't make it worth it.

          I don't disagree that rewards are an issue, but they are a much bigger issue for someone like you who has a beast deck. For many people who could actually benefit from a single epic, they can't even reach that simple goal through seasons.

          As I said already, what's the point of fixing the rewards if the majority can't even reach them due to a problem that has been needing attention for so long?

            We both have valid concerns and make strong points (I think). However, my issue, if resolved, would benefit everyone first whereas yours would really only benefit those who have already overcome the huge roadblock with dollar signs hanging from it.

              "Fixing" the rewards is not changing the 1st place prize, but restructuring the whole thing. There is a difference. As it is now, there is nothing to play for besides 1st place. And even that is meh. And btw - single epic doesn't improve anyone's deck - at least no one who played more than a couple of weeks.

                I've been playing for a while now and the epic Andre Iggy did in fact improve my season lineup as I only had pro Danny Ainge in that spot before drafting him.

                It's not like I don't get it. Rewards suck without swallowing. I mean, why are draft picks even mentioned or considered "rewards"? But you fix the rewards and they'll still be far out of reach for most players when our 2200s decks are still facing off against 20+ people in the same season who are above 3500.

                    Iggy, according to the spreadsheet is 761 overall. There are 15 (!) rare pro shooting guards that have higher ratings. Rare pros not that hard to get. What kind of "new" matchmaking would you like, that would make that LU a contender?

                      Oh right, because we get to draft whatever rares we choose. I forgot about that part of the game.

                      Is that question supposed to be rhetorical? How about a season that doesn't have 9 players hovering around 2200 and the rest ranging from 3500 to 4200? Season after season. After season.

                        Like I said I don't disagree there needs to be tweaking to the matchmaking but just like in sports there will be really good teams and bad. Things that I think would improve the seasons is better prizes allowing all players to get better faster and some tweaks to the drop rates so people drafting could improve that way quicker.

                        IMO at least one epic pack if not two should be the prize for winning a season.

                            It does need tweaking as I've said in agreement with you but remember in any sports season you have great teams and bad teams. This does mimic that to a small degree.

                              You having trouble to draft 15 (again !) rare pros that are better than a single epic Iggy. Alright then. Maybe this game isn't for you.

                                That's my point though. "All" players wouldn't be given those opportunities until matchmaking is tweaked before or in conjunction with improved rewards.

                                Look I'm not gonna argue over right or wrong because everything is relative to the individual players. There is no right or wrong, really. I just hope NWGD reads all this, because I see valid points on both sides of the argument, and does what's best for the game and all the players, whether they're trucking or sucking.
