Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

I'm sure someone has mentioned this before but they should have a trading option. It would be nice to trade amongst each other.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

Wow! I want that card. No way am I slacking off from the top 25 now. May need to start spending on some hot streaks now just to keep my spot. :-). If ever I fall into the 24-25th spot, the 26th place better give up and save his money coz mo way I'm letting go of that spot even if it means spending lots on hot streaks. Boooom!

Yeah I'm trying to move up too, and I have a feeling that a good chunk of people in the top 50 are already starting to hot streak. Plus folks outside the top 50 are hot streaking to move up. Not all of them, but a good number.

I hear ya on wanting that and trying hard for it. The fact I'm in the top 50 now I'm going all out to make sure I snag that 26-50 level. A rival card, Leg Pro (for me when combined with my other one), and Leg Support makes for a nice hall.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

well season will be ending in 40 minutes with a 2nd round loss. let's hope my luck from last night carries over and I get another epic that I already have to pro. I'd also be happy with a 2nd thaddeus young.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

No kidding!

For this event, and honestly long term, I am wondering if it's actually better for me to just get the epic pro duncan. epic pro's are slightly better than regular legendaries, right? And trying to grind way up to legendary pro will just leave me with one legend pro, one epic pro, and a bunch of rares, which isn't really all that helpful.

I'm not likely to ever get a second legendary just randomly, so I really think the best choice for me is to aim for the epic pro.

I think on the whole, epic pros are better, but Legendary Robinson might be great. Someone said he was very good, so you should see what that is and compare.

Also, Duncan's a PF and Rob's a C right? Your need might determine what position you should go for.

All things being equal, if both were about as strong, I'd go for the Robinson because of the potential of upgrading him later. With epic Duncan you've already hit your ceiling.

Thaddeus Young is a beast considering he's a rare. I'm using him in my LU right now and he's been great so far.

Here's my thinking on these points.

1) I have basically the best possible rare pro season deck (except that I don't allow duplicate cards in my lineup) except thaddeus young. I now have an epic pro SG. So PF/C isn't really a factor in my decision.

2) the chances of me ever getting a second legendary of the same card is essentially zero.

3) having a legendary pro, an epic pro, and 13 rare pros in a season lineup is a great way to get myself in a bunch of terrible matchups. My stats would be very high but most of my cards would be rares. It would be much better for season matchmaking if I had 2 epic pros, than a legend pro and an epic pro.

And anyway, I don't think I could grind up to the legend pro tier. Probably not even the legend tier. I can easily stay above 2000. The time/reward balance for me combined with the points above means that an epic pro is probably my favorite choice for this event.

Your reasoning makes sense, though I would disagree on the chances of you getting a second legendary being essentially zero. It's very low, but we're not sure how the drop system works exactly. It could be they weigh cards you do have very slightly more than cards you don't have, so you can combine them. Then again, maybe they don't. Who knows! But the amount of pro legendaries floating around makes me feel like it might not be exactly random. Even folks who pay for cards, I have a hard time believing they'd pay the thousands needed to get a bunch of pro legendaries.

Also with point 3, I don't know any other way of composing a season weight "score" like yours other than a bunch of pro rares + a couple epics and a legendary. The alternative is a deck with more than a few legendaries + pro epics coupled with commons and uncommons. I'd say the former (your method) is more common.

That said, we'll see how matchmaking works when they revamp the season matchmaking soon.

Look at the season thing this way. Let's say 1 legend pro + 1 epic pro = 2 legends + 1 epic pro.... the right hand side would be a little bigger, but it will be much more probable that people out there would have that configuration. So essentially I would be matched up more often with people where in every matchup, one of my rares was going against a legend.

Say you do end up getting a legendary pro from rivals but your deck is composed of mostly rare pros. Do you think it would be better to hold off combining the two legendaries until you have more players of better 'quality' (epic pros, etc.) Because instead of the legendary pro taking up one spot, you will then have 2 legends 'spread out' and taking up two spots which provides more depth for your team. What do you think?

Actually I think that's a fantastic idea.

Still don't think I will have time to get to that tier, but that is a good idea.

While the chances of getting a second Legend is low... the upside of a Legend Pro for the long-term is more valuable.

However... how are your chances at getting the 2nd Epic Duncan vs any Legendary outside of Rivals? That is the bigger question I'd ask myself.

As for matchmaking... I went to sub a Legendary out of my lineup to show you the ratings. My Epic Pros are actually pretty much the same impact on Quick Games as mid-tier Legends, so I doubt they affect seasons much more than Epic Pros either. I wouldn't let that affect your decision too much IMO.

I would for sure hold off combining if your deck was all rare pros, yeah. I'm in the transition stage between all rares and epic pros/legends, so I'm debating whether or not to combine two legendaries to a legend pro. I think I will, because I've already got two epic pros at C.

Because if you don't combine, I think you're more likely to win two quarters with the legendaries. If you do combine, you're definitely going to win that one quarter, but your rare pros will be up against epic pros/legends at least one or two quarters.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

That is a good point DCGMoo, but currently I don't have any epic Duncan, so the chances of getting an epic duncan outside of the event are also extremely low.

Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion

I will probably play alot tonight and just see how close I really am to one of the legendary tiers. You guys have made a good argument for at least considering that as worthwhile.
