MyTeam has become unplayable

I mean what’s the point of this? All 53 of those cards play like exactly the same person? Do we really need a 99 overall Lou Williams and Lonzo Ball and Donovan Mitchell and Ben Simmons and Rudy Gobert and Baron Davis? Bring back the dynamic ratings cards and stop inflating the ratings to the heavens. It’s become absolutely atrocious.

My team is all about being an arcade game. It has nothing to do with simulation.
It makes sense for the kids, who want to compete with as many 99 overall players as possible.
Simulation gamers really don't play this mode. it is disposable.

Well to be honest it's because of what it's become that so many of us don't play it. I used to play MyTeam a significant amount especially when they had leader-boards. Now its become such a joke with 90+ ovr role players that people who know basketball cant stomach it.


I truly want to see MyTeam mode succeed but making it a pay 2 win clown show isn't the path to take... They need to give the sim community an option for MyTeam as well... The mode has too much potential to squander it on balloon animals and cotton candy for kids...

MyTeam isn't for #SimNation.

MyTeam is for the whales.

MyTeam 2k13 was the best by far. It was difficult to pull the best players but that's how it should be. There are way too many colors now, and they're adding a new one next year too apparently. 99 ben simmons is ridiculous where he has an 80+ 3ball. What a joke.

Domination mode is also weak as hell. You HAVE to cheese in order to get enough VC in the advanced stages, forget about running plays and postups.

PREACH !!!
Back when people were trying hard to figure out which days and times were the best to open packs and still had trouble getting top level pulls... Back when we had a thread where people would post the minute they got a great pull... Those were the days...

2K13? Bro in that game you could literally do the VC glitch for a few hours and buy the best players straight up for only 20k VC.

I think 16 was the best imo. 17 was great too. 18 was trash.

I was talking historic players, sure you could buy bron, kobe, dwight all those current players but you had to get lucky to pull AI, Magic, Wilt, Shaq, all the greatest players.

Ben Simmons can barely shoot. He got his *** kicked by the Celtics last year.
He should stay an 80 untill he proves he can score from outside.
