    Last year (or really a few months ago) the tiers were different (at least before i quit) so that might change things a bit too (unless the last few changed to the current tiers). If memory serves top 50 (which is like top 65 now) generally hover ~24k points then. Top 25 was ~30k, top 10 depended on the support card.

    Basically if you wanted to get to top 25 without spending $ on RC, you needed to be fast and play ~10-13 hours/day. I did that a few times last year. Not going to play as much this year but i'll probably target a top 300 finish for the first RC.

        Considering the HS should not clear a board, i think the rates probably will be the same with the only difference being Energy vs HS. It doesn't make a lot of sense to have 2 class/function/etc performing the same task (drafting) when a simple flag/boolean/etc would do the trick.

        I just hope the leaderboard is fairly close to real time this year. If the LB is off, it'll create a ton of problems come Sunday...

          May I know if only the winning side can earn the reward cards? If so, I don't have to waste time as I chose 76ers.......

            As far as I understand the system, the winning side just determines which card you get. If the Celts win, you get a Celt card - no matter if you actually played for the Celts or the 76ers.

                  Hot Streaks drop in the pool of Boosts, not Energy. Boosts/Hot Streaks reset the board, Energy does not.

                      Jesus....more of the pay to win bs i suppose. I was wondering why I'm getting energy still and 0 hs after 500 points and about 4 boosts. You'll be lucky to draft 1hs the whole rc like this. Now with no ability to earn credits everyday (I don't have 2k15) it's just getting stupid.

                        It seemed like the drop rate on more rare cards were boosted during RC, is this the case this year?

                            Not for me... 400+ games (all +5, currently ~14th), 0 HS, 0 UR or Epic (Epic level 1 or UR++, been changing up every so often), a handful of SR, a TON of Rare, 3 boost (i think), and a handful of enhancements

                              How many points would people say I'd need to get in the top 100,000? I'm in super rare tier right now, so just getting a super rare card in this thing at the moment is fine with me.


                              And it seems like many people are going with that "all or nothing" strategy. Putting 2 or 3 cards above the tier they're in,1 card that's in their tier, and then 2 common cards. So basically, if you can beat the 1 card that's in your tier, you can easily beat them since the 2 common cards are automatic wins and the 2 above your tier cards are automatic losses.

                              Safe to say, I'm like the only person in this entire game who doesn't have an ultra rare spurs card lol

                              Depending how often people win,and how much they value their W-L record, I'd say +5 is probably the best option in this. Lets say for every 100 games, you go 90-10 on +3 and 55-45 on +5. Do the math, +5 would get you more points, even though you win over 30 more games on +3.
