    Re: [Official] The Pick Limit is now 50

    Another Restiction..... Like this would stop people from dropping down teirs to win, plus it's not like this game is a PvP... We are playing a predictable A.I that would get more Offense play calls in a game than you.....

    Storing those RTTC picks and drafting them after a stretch of mindless tap tap felt really rewarding.... I know this won't change a thing, but I jst needed to vent

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.
      Smartmove you're right on this one I think. Because from the way that everything seems to have changed with the new tier it seems like CD wants us to be using our best X cards at all times. Now I have never played anyone in the scenario you have talked about but I have something like it happen, with one of the forum members. It was during an RC he said he was going to drop to Epic tier from either Star or Leg ++. And those star supports can be a real game changer at those levels. I for one am all for people using their best cards all the time. I do it right now. W/L record means nothing. Woohoo you have a 90% in a game where winning games doesn't mean anything more than an extra click on a board to get more cards.

        hey! sorry for the delay there (had to announce the SuperCard RTG). so, maybe exploit is a little too harsh of a word in the RTTC context. in an ideal world, we'd want players to always use picks in their tier. i mean, part of the drive of our games is to build your deck. want better picks? get better cards, you know?

        but, hey, fifty picks is still a bunch. you'll just need to spend picks in QG a little more often.

          I don't understand the frustration here. It was dropped from 200 to 50. That is hardly an issue. If they wanted to be more strict, they would make it so you have to use your picks where you won them (which should really be the idea if you ask me) and eliminate pick storing altogether.

            So you'd like everyone to be forced to risk a lower reset during rttc or not participate in the rttc? I've only ever been one tier away but I've heard cases where people were 2 levels below their qg tier. That's a hefty difference.

            With that said, I'm not upset about the drop to 50 at all.

              I was one of those ppl. My RTTC was Epic++ and my QG was (and sadly still is) Star+. I only started playing a couple months ago and spent $$ to skip practically the whole Leg tier so basing my lineup on 25 cards really kills; but, it is getting a little better.

                I totally understand where you are coming from. But, QG's, RttC's and RC's are all different games with different rewards/restrictions, and everyone seems to want the best of all worlds. If you're playing the RttC with a low 25 card deck...improve your deck.

                  Brad, is there any update on this bug? I'm still seeing it and have always hit the no pick bug to know that I need to train. Now that the max is at 150, I'm getting the bug at about 140.

                    And how do you improve your deck picking in a much lower tier? The way it is currently constructed once you hit your tier level you hit a wall and either need to stop or grind losses to improve. This also may end up getting worse for ppl like me when they change the 2x2 strategy for rttc. Drafting at Epic++ tier in rttc and getting an epic isn't going to help my deck. But drafting from Star+ in QG and getting a Leg or Star WILL help my deck.

                      I'm glad you guys are okay with us playing RttC in Star/Star+/Star++ and saving picks to pick on the Playoff/+/++ board. Right now a star reset isn't really going to help me because as soon as my current star season is done, I'll be able to squeeze into playoff seasons and start getting at least MVP card rewards going forward.

                      So if I had to pick the RttC picks on the Star++ board, that would have way less chance of helping my deck than drafting on my PO (close to PO+ now) board. A playoff player card plus the auction house and patience will result in a playoff pro card, and that will upgrade my QG and Season decks. My RttC deck is the only deck that could be helped at all by more Star cards ... by why would I want them when I'll already end up with 14 SPros in my RttC deck once I hit 10 Playoff Pros (or Pro Greats, which I hope to get some of between now and the next app)?

                      The 14 SPros to get into PO tier seasons plus the 10 Playoff Pros (with maybe a few Greats) and I basically have no long term need for star cards at all.

                        It take some time to improve your deck, if you need 25 great cards.
                        This is not a short term process, and this is totally fine. But if you have to draft in the tier you are (what you suggest) there would be absolutely no need in playing those modes.
                        Why should I risk 100 of resets for a lower tier cars, which won't help anybody?

                        The amount of resets are somehow the holy grail in this game, as it could take over 300 boards to get one. This means over 2000 games, you don't play this by the way. You have to invest a lot of time.
                        Hitting a wall at a stage that doesn't help you @all + drafting in a lower tier would be the death of RTTC.

                        If I draft in Playoff why should I bother one single Star Card? There is absolutely no need for it -we need to wait till we see the changes in the RTTC mode. But I expect the worst - sure not for all of you guys, but for lower tier players. They will hit the wall, while those with 25 great cards will cruise easily through this mode.
                        If you would now force them to draft in their RTTC tier, this would be too much.

                        It will take some more days before we can give a final statement on the update, as we don't know how all those changes will affect the game long term. Personally I do see a few issues already, but let us wait

                            Storing picks needs to exist. Have you never experienced a network error on this game? Without the game storing my picks I would never draft the board lol

                              just wanted to drop you a note: we're adjusting the pick limit to 50 in the next few minutes. if you're one of the couple hundred people who has more than 50 picks stored up, you won't be able to gain picks until you've spent your existing stored picks. once you get under 50, play should resume as normal.

                              feel free to throw any questions my way.
                              I am sorry to ask but what is meant pick limit?

                                The most amount of draft picks you can have before not getting anymore for a playing a game. Before this it used to be 200 which made RTTC draft board irrelevant pretty much. They would force close the game after a RTTC match and store their picks up until either a ran out of game nights or b. hit the 200 pick plateau. Then they would go into a quick game play that then draft all 200 picks then go back to RTTC and rinse and repeat.
