They are certainly not useless. As we promised when we did RttC with Pierce we are providing an opportunity for 25 players to Pro that card, just like if we had run a non-PO tier RC. It doesn't replace a reward for 1-25 so it is simply an extra card there. No one is losing anything, and the same opportunity to Pro the card exists in this RC just as if we had run a Star RC event. If you really want a Pierce PnP Pro and don't want to be in the top 25, then purchase a PnP pack. Again, no different than before. Not sure why people expected to get a Pro card that would be in the upper echelon outside of the top 25.

They are definitely useless to the 25 people/teams who will be at the top of this RC event. Compared to a RC pro, and what is essentially a PO Greats pro, the PnP Pro is not as strong. Plus most of the guys in the top 25 are already running PO++qg lineups, but I suppose the pro pierce helps their RTTC. Just seems like you could threw a bone to some other users who can't bot/use teams to play/spend thousands of dollars on hot streaks.

I get you're trying to make money so rewarding those people is one thing, but to say that pro'ing a PnP player is as easy as purchasing a pack is an insult and a big reason why $D is thrown around so much. I'm not stupid enough to buy a PnP pack to try to dupe pierce. Anyone with a brain knows that's a fool's errand, but nice try. You're right though we shouldn't expect these things from you guys, I am learning that more and more.

I can still go for a Playoff card! If it's a Rockets, Spurs, or Warriors RC, then I'm getting it fo sho!

Could have made PnP Pierce at least open to top 100. If for anything, the rewards between top 25 to 100 is way too much. Seems like an overload.

How many PNP cards are there btw? Main thing that kept me from buying any PNP packs was the they had multiple tiers in it.

Top 1800 isn't too difficult to get to. Might actually go for it this weekend.

Your tact could use a bit more tact

Will go for the star card for sure, possibly the PO as 1800 isn't too bad to reach.
