      hope the drop rates are a joke...7%

      and look at all the cards you lose for that ultimate pack

      danan wanted to do something like the rewards in nba mobile and completely failed...

      not a guaranteed reward (the highest, tjink everything under star is useless for most)


      48k points/200p each win *25mins thats min 100h play time...
      then lose 2 leg players, leg enh, 10 vets, lvl up, 5 specs for a 7% chance

        I watched a gameplay preview of this new game mode on TwoBrothersGaming's YouTube channel.

        a few things that caught my attention:

        - 25 minute sessions (not happy about that, too long)
        - A super rare deck can get matched up against a star deck, but according to the video energy drains equalize the playing field. Not sure how that's going to work, but I guess I'll wait and see.
        - If I'm understanding correctly, it is strategic to sometimes lose to gain favorable match-ups (correct me if I'm wrong, that's what I heard)
        - Between this mode and seasons, the grind for energy cards is going to be super annoying. I'm still unfamiliar with the mode but I hope I won't have to spend credits on energy to compete.
        - Last thing, I hope RTTC and RC don't lose priority to Blacktop and get dumbed down. Seems like those two events are still the more time efficient methods to get new cards.

        I'm a very casual user, I just want a mindless tapping, card-collecting game to fill some time between my schedule , this doesnt get me too excited tbh.

        I'll have a look around the forum and gauge the interest, too bad it is not as lively as it once was apparently.

          I think the new game mode is pretty interesting. It's also something new so that's refreshing. In regards to the BTC recipe rewards, the grind doesn't seem worth it but that being said, I'd probably be playing this mode more for the picks than the recipe rewards.

            Playing for picks is all well and good, but finishing in first is the only scenario in which BTC is worth it for me over QGs. In the 26 minutes that a BTC game takes, I could play (and win) roughly 50 QGs.

            50 QGs = 100 picks.

            You get 120 picks if you come in first in BTC (worth it) but then drop all the way down to 72 picks for a second place finish (definitely not worth it).

            At that point it's first place or bust.

            Not to mention that you can mindlessly grind through (and win) 50 QGs without paying much attention. It seems like you have to pay quite a bit of attention throughout most of one 26 minute BTC game.

            Meh.

                  the only thing i see being somewhat beneficial (depending on how this plays out) is that this will allow casual people like myself to play in spurts...im borderline finished with the game (events are not worth the grind, season is a wash)...so playing 30 mins at a time maybe once or twice in a day at least feels somewhat progressive

                    At the very least it'll be fun for a short time figuring something new out but wish they did something more concrete like fusion chamber. Even if that means you have to wait a while, I cannot stand gambling. Any time I see the word chance I run the other way.

                      I'll reserve judgment until after playing it out, but it seems AH could get a jolt from special requirements. Also, contracts and abilities have a new use now.

                      We'll see how this new mode affects how many people finish RttC and if point totals drop for RC. Still need to play QG for energy, and season rewards help with filling out a complete, balanced 25 card deck.

                        That's how I'm looking at it. It's something new and that's all I could have asked for. Change of pace from QG

                          I was talking to my buddy about this and he did the math. If you play this new mode for six hours a day (only about 12 BTC games), you'd have to average a 2nd place finish (125 BTC points) per game over the course of 32 days JUST to open one ultimate pack where, at best, you have a 35% chance of getting a star card. And that's still just a chance (not a guaranteed 1 in 3 packs).

                          Imagine hitting a bad streak and not getting a star in five ultimate packs.

                          That's 160 days (five months) of playing BTC for six hours EVERY DAY.

                          Even if you were guaranteed a star on your third ultimate pack, that's still 96 days (over three months) per star.

                          In RC, if you know you grind hard enough in 3 1/2 days, you're guaranteed an RC star.

                          You tell me what's more worth it.
                          Per younggaryoak video, points do roll over month to month, so you could technically start stacking points for PO tier now and cash out then.

                          Truthfully, I can't think any other gameplay mode that would balance the experience against what's already in the game... the mindless QG/RC grind... and the time/deck sensitive seasons and RttC... this fits nicely in between with each mode/events having its own rewards and pros/cons...

                          Just like AH being introduced mid-season last year, blacktop could really make things interesting next year at start of game... tanks/grinders spending most time on blacktop while everyone else chase event rewards... seasons would then get interesting mix of top-heavy decks mixed with deeper, balanced decks...

                          Well, that enough for now lol... RC points will be interesting!

                              You make a good point. I didn't think about the ability to stack points. That could be worth it.

                              I mean I'm still intrigued. I'm sure I'll play it outside of events. At least enough to give it a real chance.

                              If it takes people out of the RC grind then I'm happy with that. I'd love to only need 8000-9000 to finish top 500. That could save us RC grinders from having to play several hundred additional games.

                                The RC grind will slow for this next one but it will definitely depend on if people are seeing progress with their decks if Blacktop will slow it down for the next ones. Of course, it could just naturally slow as we get closer to PO tier release.
