    Oh there's clearly several reasons it went to the Wizards:

    1.) Wizards got a new card that is sellable, while the only new card the Bucks got was limited to 100 pro versions and 900 non pro version.

    2.) Wizards have rewards throughout the lineup who are more familiar and have more "star power" with younger people, who are far less familiar with any of the Bucks player rewards. (This may change in the next couple years if the Bucks continue to improve rapidly).

    3.) People generally choose based upon enlightened self interest, so since most people aren't going to fall in the top 2k, it's generally going to be the rewards from 2001 - infinity that will sway which side folks play for.

    The reality is that neither team has been really very relevant in roughly an equal number of years. Most of the people who use this app probably don't even realize that the Wizards were called the Bullets the last time they were seriously relevant in the NBA.

    I'm sorry that I offended you somewhere along the way mate. The rewards at the top are clearly better for the Bucks than the Wiz (Very good C and 2nd best draftable PG vs. PG/PG), but the top 1k is a tiny fraction of the people who choose, so it is what it is.

    Just the fact that they are making assets that aren't ever going to be used will hopefully be a reason to swap to a different "award" for which team wins, and allow folks to rep for the cards they need. There are quite a lot of benefits to making that move which line up with previously stated developer goals, especially deck variety.

      Sigh.... Not trying to be mean and single you out, because it's not just you, but it's pretty obvious why the 100-1000 rewards are "junk" as he said. RC single will be useless in a very short time when playoff cards come out, not to mention that they can easily be beaten by partially trained star pros. Neither the wall or arenas have a team enhancement, which would have been most beneficial in season and RttC.

          He's right that it's snarky of me to call people "sheep" for picking which team will give them the reward they want in the place they are likely to finish.

          I'm considering making a thread about brainstorming a different way to make the winner of RC "matter", while still allowing people to pick a side and get rewards based upon where they finish that are from the team they choose.

          The more I think about it, the more I realize that the only real reason to make everyone get rewards from the winning team is that they want the "winner" to matter, and that's the best way they have at the moment.

          If we can show the benefits to the game (and revenue) and give them good ideas for a way to make the winner "matter", I think the benefits of giving people rewards according to the team they rep dovetail quite a lot with some of the things that have been stated as goals by the devs (most namely the issue of deck variety).

            Has anybody pointed out that we may never see support RC rewards anymore, evidence of the new rewards system. I'm a star++ and the best support I've gotten from draft is a team epic off and ath. Thank god I went for a team off and reb during a previous RC.

              I never understood why they do not allow people to get the card of the side they chose. People would be spending and playing like crazy to hold there spot if they actually had a stake in the card they would receive. To be honest it would be a real "bloodbath" at the top. Even more so than it is now.

                    The market changes so fast.
                    Last week i saw a lot of Harden cards at 6000-6050 bin not sold or sold at 5000-5500 offer.
                    Now it costs more than 7000...

                            I think so, I sold mine after 2 tries. That was right after the RC ended though
