re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Getting 4 MKG's and 0 crawford or hickson is perfectly possible in 100% random. I think you don't know what true randomness looks like. It is rarely EVEN or anything like even. If you have 3 MKG's you are just as likely to draft a 4th as that Hickson or Crawford you don't have.

Anchen is correct. Your sample set is just so small you end up feeling like you're seeing patterns when it is just random. When we look across the millions of cards we give out each day then you get the expected distribution based on percentages. Go flip a coin 10 times. You should get 5 heads and 5 tails, right? I doubt it will work out that way though with just 10 flips. Try 100, a 1000, 10,000. As you get more and more the 50/50 you're supposed to get turns out to be closer to true vs. just your 10 flips alone.

re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Fixed random mean they don't change the % based on other things. It is fixed in that it doesn't change based on the time of day, the number of rares you have, how many epics you have, or whatever else you want to throw at it. It is a fixed percentage they program in (but can be changed apparently, based on the stress test/epic event).

Dissectng his post, he only mentions "Fixed" and "Not even" in reference to 2 things:

Ratio/chance of Energy to rares. This is a fixed percentage in that it doesn't change, but is slanted toward Energy.

The other was:
"For example, a Team Pack will have a random chance to be Common -> Epic (again, not an even chance, but a fixed random percentage)"

IE, commons are say 70%, Uncommon 20, Rare 8, Epic 2. Completely made up but what fixed but "uneven" percentages would be.

Until he confirms I suppose there's nothing that says the above is right, but it is how I would interpret it from a developer's perspective.

Again Anchen has it completely right (except the actual numbers). What he outlines though is what I was trying to say with "fixed" and "even".


If any of you ever take a statistics class you will get an earful about "random".

I'm liking that Kobe lol

Yeah Kobe is my best legend. Pro Westbrook is a little better though. And 107 max energy. Anyone know what the highest is?

re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Hey NW fix my account...it's incapable of drafting a legendary.

Just kidding, thanks for the explanation in regards to card drops.

For now, 311 on one of the Magic Johnson (forget if it is the 87 or 91) cards lol. Doesn't seem right but it is there. Might be an error.

re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

I know there was supposed to be an issue with stats being wrong with Magic but I'm noticing a problem with Bill Russel's defense.

Mine is 500 even but I have noticed quite a few that are at 501. I'm surprised how often I have lost games do to this. Probably since he is coveted for his high defensive value.

re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

As stated in his posted, it's actually:

25 cards on the board. 1 is a reset, either an energy or rare. I'm not even sure it is known which it is until you hit it. For that matter, the entire board might not mean anything technically, it is just sending data to the server and asking for what this card is each time (most likely).

We'll say the board is distributed 18 commons, 6 uncommons, 1 "reset".

Once you hit your reset, you have a 80% chance of energy, 20% of a "rare".

Ok, you roll a 18 on your 100 sided die, and now you have a rare.

Next is it a rare, epic, or legendary?

We'll go with this:
90% rare
9% epic
1% legendary

Let's present those as a 100 sided die roll. 1-90 = rare, 91=99 = epic, 100 = legendary.

You roll a 92. Congrats, you have an epic. What is your epic?

There is X number of epics (I don't know the number). Random number generator rolls a X sided die. Congrats, this is your (Marcin Gortat) Congratulations!

That's pretty much exactly how the system works , give or take a few % points since we are guessing that, good example , good job.

I don't think this is an issue with Magic (where his stats were flat out wrong that led to his card having 166 BC maxed) but the "rounding error" bug that we've been talking about. I think on page 817 or so NWGameDad said it was among their things they plan to fix (next to Rival rewards and season matchmaking). Basically in summary, when you are leveling your card, depending how often you level the card, a number might wind up rounding the wrong way and result in 1-3 points of difference in a few stats. Hopefully that all gets fixed though.

Right! That def makes sense! I know the server transmits what card to give out but what I wanna know is, are there rares/epics/legendaries that are more "common" than others in the same rarity class?

Any thoughts of a market or trading system? A market like selling card to get more draft picks or something like that and a trade system where players can trade cards to a server not human and human trades I think that could break the game but human CPU trades could be interesting.

Also are the percentage numbers in the quick game draft board the same as the rivalry draft board? I got like 5 epics almost one a day during the event and only have drafted one epic in the weeks of playing quick games.

Will we ever see new cards? New players added from the past or something like that. I know you guys just added the rivalry cards but I think more cards would be nice to see.

Last question. Has there been any talk of when we will see another increase in epic or legendary drops in quick games in the near future like we saw on 2/3/14. The myteam console players got a lot of love during all star weekend but nothing was done to the mobile side.


Thank you for being active in this forum and keep up the good work hopefully you have time to answer me
