Most importantly, have some patience. That Carmelo or PG13 that youre frothing over can wait. Theres no need to spend more than 5k on (individual) players when youre just starting up MyTeam. Lots of great bargain Silvers and Golds. Dont forget about Bronze role players. Some of these guys are rebounding machines or 3pt shooters.
Make as many buckets as possible via assist.
Use the MyNBA2k app. For the most part the only time I buy a pack is when I earn enough VC thru the app to do so.
Earn player cards thru Mycareer and keep or flip for AH.
Learn the AH. Learn some of the valuable bronze and silver players. Check the AH often. Some people clearly just auction for quick sales. Some people dont pay attention to current market value. While there are too many cards priced way beyond their worth, there are also plenty that are priced way below their normal sale price. I made quite a bit early on just buy using my last 1000MT on Sim Bhullar to turn around and sell for 4000MT. That stuff adds up fast when youre itching for you next new player.
Domination and Gauntlet rewards are a fantastic way to get MT. Dom player packs frequently yield gold players. Gauntlet (after the bronze board and 25 wins) will get you lots of bums. Those bums go for a minimum of 750MT at the AH.
SELL CONTRACT CARDS. Im still baffled that people use them on Bronze and Silver players. You can sell contracts all day for 250MT (gold contracts will sell for 300MT). To buy 5 contracts for a Bronze thru the EDIT PLAYER menu, its 40MT. IIRC, Silvers are 100MT. Yeah. Stop that crap. Youre losing MT.
Commit to being a collector or commit to being a seller. There are great collection rewards, including a few rather large MT rewards. At least get yourself to 50 cards and get the 10000MT reward. Very important. 100 cards gets you a 15000MT reward. I had no problem hitting 50 early on in domination. I generally sold players and Consumables, and kept Team Items. IF YOU ARENT GOING TO USE A CONSUMABLE, SELL IT. Your collection tally is not affected. 250MT +250MT and so on can add up quick.
This one's a no-brainer, but never pay market value for a player. EVER. Repeating what I mentioned above, if you keep your eyes peeled, your patience will be rewarded.
Thanks for reading. Add to it. Ill edit this post if people have other solid methods.
