I may be wrong but having a 50 pick limit seems like a very reasonable adjustment they are making.
    New here. But how to you store picks?

      It was ridiculously fun to go through 200 picks during the RttC, and you can't blame people for wanting to draft in their QG tier. I mean... my RttC lineup is Star++ and won't get into Playoff for a long time due to the nature of having the rating based upon 25 cards.

      My guess is pretty much everyone else is gonna feel the same way. Do you guys consider that exploitation? Would you prefer we not do it? If that's the case, is there some thought on reconciling the wide gulf between QG and RttC tier? I don't think anyone will want to see a star card pop up picking on the RttC board if they have a playoff level lineup in QG.

        I understand the exploitation of moving tiers as well as the extra work you guys might have to put in to make storing picks work. However, businesses should be made for the people and if your customers enjoy storing draft picks, it would be the smart business move to do just that.

          50 is not terrible tho. It's not like they nerfed it. You get to win 6 RTTC games before you have to draft again.

          I bet the new playoff tier had to do something with it since aside from the usual, pretty much nobody will have a playoff tier RTTC lineup. But c'mon, with this fresh new tier, nobody is going to want to waste a pick on a lower tier, even if they only allowed 2 stored picks, we would still store them in hopes of a playoff reset.

          Should have just allowed us to draft from our quick game tier from the beginning, we're all just going to put up with the inconvenience and store anyway.

            Yeah, that makes sense. Do you feel that doing this during the RttC is exploitative, or are you guys more concerned with the folks dropping down to like UR++ and using Star level team boosts to get easy wins and storing picks to pick up in Star/Playoff?

              You store picks by going to the home screen on your phone when at the picks menu, then re-opening the app. On some phones you have to close all apps before re-opening the app or else it will just go straight back to the pick screen.

                  My QG Star+, RTTC Leg++.... Storing my picks to draft from Star+ makes more sense than shooting my self in the foot like I did last RTTC cos I tot the RTTC board was for show and was actually drafting my QG teir ......

                  Now this happens, well I knew this update was too good to be true

                    Well ... let him answer if he thinks the RttC storing to draft from the QG tier is exploitative. I don't think that's what they wanted to stop. If you have star level team supports, you can drop down to like UR++ and win 100% of the time really easily, and if people were doing that and storing up 200 picks at a time and then drafting on Playoff, I think we would all understand why that's undesirable and needed fixing.

                        I agree that I think the reason they limited it to 50 instead of even lower is to possibly allow people to store their RTTC picks to use in their QG tier so as to not lose their max tier pity pull. Seeing as how Playoff tier was just added, likely very few players, if any, will still be in the Playoff tier in RTTC. I agree that dropping your deck level in QG for easy wins, storing picks, then using them in your max tier is exploiting the game but using your picks from RTTC in your QG tier isn't really exploiting things.

                          Correct me if I'm wrong, but haven't people been reporting that they're drafting cards from their QG teir during RttC, even if their RttC is showing a lower level than their QG one? i.e. I'm at Epic+ for QG and I still draft Epics from the RttC board even though during RttC I'm only at UR++

                          So.. if that's the case, then this isn't a big deal, right?

                            True, we have to play the game for the picks, but we aren't spending any actual cash, well most of us. It is CatDaddy's game and they don't want players dropping tiers for easy wins, storing picks, then using them in higher tiers. It's also not like they are taking away the possibility of storing your picks from RTTC and then using them in QG. You still have 50 picks that you can store. Thats 6 total RTTC and then 1 QG worth of picks, then use your picks after your QG play.

                                I believe that update fixed that, it wasn't intended to be that way according to NWGameDad.
