Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Hi,
Im sorta new to the forum but have been playing the app for a while and find it a bit difficult to get a really strong line-up (Everyone's lineup on here is amazing!). My two best players are full potential Perkins and Barnes. Most of my other players I use in quick games and season mode are normal rare cards.
Without dropping a lot of money, what is a good way to build a team? Also in rivals mode, what difficulty do you normally play against (+1, +3, or +5? I can normally beat +3 decks but have trouble playing against +5s)

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

That's interesting. McMillan is the only rare I don't even have yet and I never see him. I believe the drops are "random" but it is my theory that the drop rates are tiered and the odds adjust.

Keep completing the catalog though, I don't play the game purely for seasons, I play it for collections too. It does disadvantage me in seasons, but I also don't buy packs so it's not like I have 20 epics in my deck waiting to be combined too.

I have been going for the catalog since i started. My funny thing is that I am only missing JJ Hickson and the ENTIRE blazers rares lol. Don't know what the blazers have against me, but I have no blazers rare pros lol and don't even have a single of the 2 Robinsons

just finished 4916-615 games, luckily pulled 2 legends from draft, Wilt & Moses Malone. Why the hell they got such low stats? Wilt and Moses!!

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Because when you match up in a season it matches your WHOLE deck against whoever you're about to be matched with, with a bunch of rares sitting there could potentially put you in with high ranked guys, or at least i think thats how it works

That is exactly right. My team has had the best rare pro players plus Stockton epic pro, Teamstrenght average 2200. Another 15 rare pro maxed out plus 7 maxed out epic cards on the side. My oponents in Season were a lot of teams with average Team strength 4000+. My Season record 17-65. After throwing 10 precious cards away, I still have 2 teams in my Season with 3000+ strength, but the rest is beatable.

Btw I have just parked at 8k points place 217, a lazy sunday should bring me the Admiral, my first legendary card.

That's strange as I am waiting on completing a lot of Blazers too haha. Do you notice a sort of pattern to your pulls? As in eventually the doubles start to come in with a rare double here or there but mostly it's a steady pace?

I'm not ready to concede drop rates are randomized for collectors. It would ruin the game for us if we ever had a full deck with cards waiting to be combined and reached our limit of cards. I haven't reached my limit of 100 of cards waiting to be combined and am able to hover comfortably around 75, if that moment ever comes where my deck is full with rares waiting to be combined then I will admit my entire theory is bogus and I'll probably stop playing the game because half the game's fun for me (collecting) has been taken away.

Play seasons and grind... That's really all you can do if you don't want to spend. Seasons can produce some good cards if you can at least make it to the playoffs. Check the forum for stats and check out the spreadsheet, that will give you a good idea of where the players sit (I believe its only Rare Pro and higher though). Rivers, MKG, Thad Young and Hickson are some of the best Rares IMO. Good Luck!

Nah... Haven't really noticed a "pattern" but I do have 2 Rares that come up far too much; I have drafted Sessions and Mo Williams well over 25 times each (yeah, just realized he is a Blazer, so I have got 1 Blazer Rare Pro lol)
Maybe I am crazy, but I do sometimes feel that drafting kind of runs in order by team with the commons and uncommons; MANY times I pull 2 commons from the same team in a row (like 2 76ers) then the next time I draft I pull one from the team that follows them in the catalog. Maybe coincidence, but odd when it happens.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

I'm sitting at 677...is it worth it to grind out to 251-500 for the admiral..or would the epic pro Duncan be a better option since I'm pretty sure the odds of me getting admiral pro is 1 in 2million lol

[TizOnly1]

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

It used to, but it was a glitch. It's been removed.

Anyway... Done for the day.

I've grinded so hard today, and moved so little :'(

And haven't gotten any good cards either :-(

I guess you could look at what you need help more in for your lineup? That's what I'm doing. I don't play out of position in my seasons, and I have Karl Malone at PF but Chandler is my best Center, so I would rather have a bad a** starting line at every position rather than be stacked at PF, so Robinson is what I want.

The reason I am convinced drop rates cannot be random for everyone is because the game would potentially be ruined for collectors. Eventually, our decks would stack up past 100 with uncombinables and we'd have to start getting rid of our best cards to complete collections, which would ruin collections. If that ever happens to me, my game experience is ruined and I stop playing. And that IS possible if all drop rates are completely random, as it would be more than possible to assemble 50+ rare pros waiting to be combined. So either 1 of 2 things are happening:

1. Drop rates are completely random. Which would be a major flaw if I ever reach the point where my deck is full and I have to start tossing cards I want to keep. I think the developers are smarter than that to realize this problem could exist and that a lot of people do play these games for collection purposes too. If that wasn't true, a catalog wouldn't exist for those of us that are collectors.

2. The option I lean towards. The drop rates are not completely randomized for collectors but the formulas are certainly not easily discernible. But the process allows a slow push towards keeping a deck of rares waiting to be combined, combine them, train them, toss them and rinse repeat rinse repeat until you have a pretty damn good deck which guarantees upwards improvement of your deck over a very long period of time WITHOUT having to ever sacrifice a card waiting to be combined.

I believe all of this because the major flaw that would exist in the finite deck limit for collectors and second, because I don't think a game so statistics oriented would make literally the most important statistic and odds based process of this game so simplistic.

Also I am not accusing the developers of this game of being disingenuous, they may be telling the truth about it being all completely random, but I think they're simply choosing to omit some details as to how drop rates are affected and shifted.

Yeah I play outta position thru the season because my team is stacked with Pg..like I have Avery.***bio.. Doc.. And McMillan.. I have epic pro all jeffenson as a center..and Clifford Robinson at of..so I think adding Duncan and moving Clifford to the bench would greatly help my team

There is no way to collect all the epic and legendary cards, not to speak of all the exclusive rivals cards without spending a very huge amount of money plus a ridiculos amount of time. You can collect all rare pro cards, as free to play user, thats possible.
I have drafted every rare card in this game plus around 85% of them twice after 10000 games. I also drafted 6 epic cards and zero legendary cards..
The main problem of collecting cards is that when you keep too many cards on your deck your ruin your season performance. So reaching play off round 2 or better to get your hands on some epic cards will become nearly impossible. The more cards you are holding the stronger your season opponents will be.
When you are fine with collecting just the 3 lower groups of cards. Go on thats possible, everything else wont work.

btw I drafted McMillan 4 times.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

I went back and read some older post...so if I start a season with a couple rares..a epic pro..a and commons I would be matched up with ppl that team average is like 200?
