Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Playing in my first season and is currently 1-0 in the finals. The first seed got knocked out by the 5th seed while the 1st seed has 200-300 stats higher than the 5th seed in every categories.

The 1st seed bested me 3/4 times. Our stats were quite even. Average 1300 each. Idk how the 5th seed stomped the 1st seed 4-0 him and while I will 4-0 the 5th seed in the final

For some reason, majority of players win their first season. Maybe its set up like that, who knows.

One epic to break the rut. Not gonna train him until I get a dup because the season matchmaking is screwed up enough already.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Just a quick heads up for everyone in reference to purchasing epic packs. Over the last 12 hours I decided to give it one last shot and spent $150 earlier and another $250 tonight. I received ALL of the older epics that I already had and I received ONE legendary that I have already received 6 SIX times before. I have determined that the (randomness of the game has disappeared and now it is all about money) If I had anywhere near this much trouble getting Legendary cards when I first started buying these packs then I would have never kept going. I am very frustrated as expected but I wanted to caution everyone before buying packs.

Before, I would spend about 200 bucks and obtain a minimum of 5 Legends and now that ratio has plummeted. If I complain to Cat Daddy there response will simply be, "sorry about your luck but you know the epic packs are completely random." Out of the numerous epics I received, approximately 8 were James Harden, 7 were Jrue Holiday and 5 were Nate Robinson. Bottom line is that they have changed a lot of things and one being a HUGE drop in the drop rate of Legendary cards when buying Epic packs. This is the first major complaint I have had about this game.

I am on the road right now, so sorry for lack of response ( and typos from my iPad), but let me address this and the complaints do season matchmaking..

1. The drop rate for purchased packs and draft boards, has not changed. Any time someone hits a strong of bad luck the immediate blame is placed on a change in drop rates. It simply is not true. Look up my explanation of random the FAQ thread or Anchen's many great posts on randomness. The new cards had zero effect non drop rates. The epic pack for example, has a fixed drop rate of epic vs. legendary. Once the rarity of the card is determined then the player is determined. The first "roll" has zero to do with how many cards are in the system. Twista's luck with his recent purchases is just that, luck.

2. Season matchmaking times are coming out too long right now. As I asked in my other thread, if you are experiencing matching times beyond 3 hours please send us Feedback. We are investigating why this is occurring and need to look at your decks to help us debug.

3. Season bots do exist, and have always existed. However, there are also *millions* of players of this game! and the new system does match you with players you probably have not encountered before. Do not make the assumption everyone plays as you do with so many players out there. With that said, people on this forum are more hard core players and end up with higher decks, which does end up pitting you with bots to help fill a season. The high number of bots being reported is questionable though because we have limits on now many we place in a season. We either have a bug or you are playing real people that you haven't seen before. I need to look at the data when I get back to the office. If it is broken we will flip the old system back on while we fix it.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Yeah, even before the update when I got my Pippen in epic pack, i went on to get numerous epics and no legendaries. Rivals is the best way now...

I've noticed a rut in my epic packs as well. I did go back to back with 91 Jordan/Frazier but I had probably got 7-8 epics without a legendary. Sad thing is its going to make Rivals harder if that's the case.


*Side note - I think Center is the only spot where I would have a for sure guy jump into my starters/bench if I got an epic pro. It would have to be Bosh or Reed for sure Horford could since he's only 3 points total worse than my 71 Wilt.

If you look at Twista's season standings pics, the 29 teams look like bots, MVP rare players corresponding to their teams.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

NWGD, spending as much money as Twista did, it is hard to believe that he was just unlucky. What do you need to believe that it is not random. The idea of everything being random becomes sketchier by the minute lol. Dropping $1000 and getting no legendary, will you call that luck?

This is sad. I want to be able to train my epics to max right when I get them, but it seems that this is the most logical approach

He also literally has the best deck in the game. He is in a matchmaking class by himself right now. Do not base your matchmaking experience on his.

I said that because you said there are limits to the amount of bots you put in the game per season. Not basing my matchmaking experience on his, nobody can lol.

My first 20$ got me a legend tho

That happened to me too. Try doing it again, you'll get an epic. You need to buy many many packs to get a few legendaries. I get that there is a higher rate for epics than legendaries but certain amount of spending yielding no legendaries is preposterous lol.

Honestly, I don't need to believe it is random, I know. You can choose to not believe me, but I know how it is programmed and I control the drop rate. Card pack drop rates have not been touched since December when we released the Epic Pack.

Fixed random is just that fixed. If you flip a coin once the odds of getting heads is 50%. If you flip a coin 1000 times and get heads 75% of the time, on your 1001 flip your odds of getting heads is still 50%. Again fixed random means it does not matter what happened before, the next time you flip the coin the odds are still the same.

I like that coin analogy. Makes sense, but it is annoying to the buyer unless they are Floyd Mayweather, when they drop so much bread and get nothing to improve their team. Since my last legendary through epic pack, I've bought about ten and all epics.

Edit: maybe game rewarded me though when i got legendary during rivals lol

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Hey NWGD can you say us which team will be in the next Rivals Event?

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

NWGD I went 17 epic packs one after the other without a Legend. That's left a foul taste in my mouth about the randomness of this game. Especially coming from 1:4 or 1:7 before the previous update. Can you enlighten us with the rate?
